Double take
Posted by: ashleytan on: July 22, 2011
It’s Friday, so it’s time for something light-hearted. This is Michael Bublé’s original music video, Haven’t Met You Yet. Video source This is a spoof based on bad lip-reading. (Warning: If you have a detachable sense of humour, reattach it firmly before watching!) Video source The spoof is creative and destructive at the same time. [...]
Creatively critical

If you haven’t been living under a rock in Singapore, you’ll know the uproar that the Fun Pack Song for NDP 2011 caused. The uproar could probably rival the Kallang Roar! Video source Thankfully the song has been pulled from the lineup, but not before some damage was done. It made me wonder just how [...]

Video source If you asked me for an example of collaborative collaboration, I’d mention the Sour video or Diane Birch’s “Valentino” music video. Enough said!
OK Go, again

I like IKEA. I like how it promotes simple elegance and lowers costs by encouraging people to do-it-yourself (DIY). I particularly enjoy the DIY bit, perhaps because I have not outgrown my LEGO and Airfix days. There is quite a lot of IKEA in my home as a result and much of it installed by [...]
Addressing issues 1
Posted by: ashleytan on: August 14, 2008
