Stormtroopers’ 9/11

Here’s a funny video that I watched last month, and I thought I would share it with y’all.

And if you have anything that I can write about, I’d appreciate some ideas. My brain is running quite slowly at the moment. Do have 1 or 2 thoughts about the new iPhone tho.

Cool Music Animation

I was pretty amazed when I first viewed this in a tute at Uni.

It’s a really fun composition that has been matched to an animation, this animation is based on balls being shot out of pipes at various instruments. And from what I can tell it looks pretty phsyically accurate. But what do I know, watch it for yourself and you will soon be able to see.

Dallas Brass “Hands”

This was another cool video that I saw in a tute.

The Dallas Brass Band puts down their instruments and performs a piece called “Hands” with nothing but their bodies. It is a really funny piece of music and includes AMAZING coordination. This would have taken so much rehersal and I’m sure they hit each other a few times in practice. Watch it and be amazed.

The Full Sound Of A Band With No Instruments

This is a really cool YouTube video I was shown in a tute recently at Uni.

It’s a group called Naturally 7 performing a song called Wall of Sound.

7 guys sound like a full band. Awesome.

I Hope My Classroom Isn’t Like This…

Students can get up to all sorts of mischief in a classroom, but in this one everything seems to be going wrong…

A classroom with Chaos everywhere!

Recently at Uni we had a lecture where it was suggested that “minor” classroom infractions aren’t really minor at all. When they are added up over time, they can really effect learning. I think the cartoon above demonstrates that.

I also hope that I wont be ignoring these small issues but will instead be concentrating on how to best teach the students so that they can learn.

P.S. Click on the picture to see a bigger version of it.

5SyncBoys

5SyncBoys on Stairs

As part of the advertising campaign for the big three (public meetings, small groups, ancon) within the SUEU (Sydney Uni Evangelical Union), the 5SyncBoys performed their smash hit single, “Get Involved” from their album “The EU and U”. Below is a video recording of the performance. The 5SyncBoys were said to be happy with the performace and were quoted on their Facebook Page saying,

“[A shout out] to all our fans, without whom we would just be 5 extremely good-looking, well-dressed guys…”

The 5SyncBoys currently have no shows lined up but may have some exciting projects coming up in the future.

(Yes that is I in the cowboy hat)
