Video games began with Pong. They’ve come pretty far, but there will always be something incredibly pleasing about the game. Come play with us — and check out the earlier posts we did on Guillaume Reymond’s GAME OVER project where he recreates classic video games, replacing pixels with actual human beings.

Yesterday, we had too much fun playing Pac Man for you, so today we are back with Guillaume Reymond’s SPACE INVADERS.
French-Swiss Artist Guillaume Reymond has been creating stop motion films of classic video games using HUMANS AS PIXELS! He calls it the “Game Over” project and they are all pretty fun. We’d love to get all the soundtracks on one download too.

You best get your orders in right away before the SHTF. Wreck&Salvage has been posting supply orders for years, but as usual, I am a tad late to the party. I could get lost in their catalogue for a good long time, which is right on, as when the mess starts to spray, I am going to need some new ways to spend my day. If you are ready to place an order on SUPPENDAPO just get your list handy and call 206-339-6324. Or if you want to snoop and taste other’s supplies just sift thru the stuff at one of the aggregator host type vehicles. Many orders are out there, but this gives you a good idea of what they look like.

Stephen Ong’s video combines many of my favorite things: Rube Goldbergian machines, obsessive drawing, political commentary, toilet humor — and gets them to work together exceedingly well. It’s one part Terry Gilliam, one part The Story Of Stuff, one part How I Met The Walrus, and every bit it’s own thing too. Maybe there’s nothing I like more (today) than its “shape up or ship out” message delivered with ample humor.

Mike’s Pick Of The Day
Nothing like waking up on Sunday morning and having your son do a great bit of curating. I dug this one, and am glad I took Mike’s advice to watch in HD.
Hat tip to Spencer & Spencer’s Dad.

Lego: The Force Unleashed
Lego and Star Wars are like peanut butter and jelly. Stop motion and YouTube are their bread. There is such a huge supply of great work out there, we are ready to see the best of list of the genre. For now though, we are willing to venture that this is worthy of inclusion on just such a list. Hope The Younger wanted this placed in The Bowl but the violence is a bit intense for the young ‘uns, and we are not ashamed to confess our total love of these things anyway, so it’s landing here today instead.
