I am an experience designer and strategist
fostering dialogue between technology and people.
So, I pretty much avoid big time acts and there are very few "modern" bands that make what I deem to be exceptionally rad music. LCD Soundsystem, however, is the king + queen of them all. I created this stop-motion video as part of my graduate program thesis work. 100 hours of wood cutting and photographing. If you dig it, peep my process photos.

TRON: Legacy + Daft Punk = Swoon.

This is probably the last robot dance outfit I'm going to post for a while. UK's Tik & Tok were pretty far out there, looking more like Fischerspooner predecessors than robots. Luckily for them, their darker, more minimal synth tracks were way, WAY better than their robotic dance routines. The only place I've ever seen The Tube is on a 2004 Rephlex pressing that has all of Tik & Tok's better (i.e. more minimal) tracks and sells for under $10!

Machines that think they're human pretending to be robots. I-R-O-N-Y. Love it. The track is decent, but nothing mind-bending.
SCHEMATIC: Fotostat strut their circuits to Kraftwerk, more vids, technics ad, 7" tracks, album artwork and label scans...

Metal Mickey calling the shots in this UK dance competition from 1983. Peep those costumes! The red heads get my vote.
