Infographic – The Appeal Of Angry Birds

Calum Henderson — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 06:40:25 +0000

One of my all time favourite games on my iPhone is Angry Birds. At times there may have been games that I’ve enjoyed more, but I always finding myself coming back to Angry Birds.

I’ve had the original ever since one of my friends said he was addicted to it, and I got the Rio version after seeing the movie. You could say I’ve succumbed to advertising, but I’m cool with that seeing as it only cost $1.

The guys over at Ask Your Target Market have created an infographic based on a survey that they did on Angry Birds addiction. I don’t think I’m addicted, but it certainly is interesting. View the original post here.

Can You Swat a Fly With An iPad?

Here’s a funny ad that has come out from a US newspaper. I hope you enjoy it.

Apparently Apple wrote a cease and desist letter to the newspaper, they don’t like to see their stuff smashed..

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

Calum Henderson — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 04:26:48 +0000

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”

Calum Henderson — Thu, 03 Jun 2010 03:15:48 +0000

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.

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…

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.

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.
