M-flo and another korean rapper / Thai-Pop Palmy / Uncanny Valley
Tei have you seen these M-Flo performances? they are very awesome:
- Wheesung with M-Flo
- M-flo meets Wheesung in Budokan - I'm DA 1
Wheesung's a pretty handsome Korean boy.
Verbal is also Korean.
(Yes, I am procrastinating very hard today.)
EDIT: ok so now I went and looked up some Thai Pop. The first few songs I found were difficult to appreciate without understanding Thai, but I found a cool song:
- [T-Pop] Tick-Tock - Palmy - Thai hippy /cowgirls rocking it out? @_@
- Another one by Palmy - pretty groovy.
- Another upbeat song.
- [T-POP] Stay - ปาล์มมี่ - Beautiful guitar playing. Such a sweet, longing melody. ;_; ("Stay" lyrics)
Hmm, Palmy is Thai-Belgian, but has been studying in Sydney for a while (interview)... pretty cool, she is.
EDIT2: I heard Kylie Minogue's Did It Again on the radio the other day.
EDIT3: Utada Hikaru's Passions video has a gorgeous flowing animation at the start.
Previously in Dinosaur Comics, T-Rex explains The Uncanny Valley - the uneasiness when robots/cartoons approach near-realism: they start to look like real people who are TERRIBLE WRONG. A more detailed paper, with graphs! (The rest of that site looks interesting as well.)
