The Glib has found more than MySpace

clipper's remarks: It looks like the the mildly schizophrenic musician from Boston, has not only moved his act to Nashville but moved his collection to imeem where he has more space to share his independent creative work. Thus far I'm his only imeem friend, but that will change over night.

The Glib

"The Glib are a trio of decreasingly fictitious characters that were born in the bedroom studio of a Brookline/Boston musician that has since exploded into three demo works that span many aspects of rock and roll. The schizophrenic band Also host(s) the locally acclaimed podcast, 5 Minutes with the Glib where additional talented characters gain their voices."

Disgruntled exMormon Missionary Sings about it. - The Glib

Fri, 09 Mar 2007 03:05:57 GMT

clipped by: largerego
clipper's remarks: The video for "Maybe After this Song" Is like most of the other videos in that the vocals were re-recorded live when the video was being shot.

My brother (if you haven't figured out this guy's my brother yet, I'm sorry it wasn't obvious) and I both got "called" to Idaho on our missions for the LDS church years ago. It was like a practical joke they put on both of us, we could have been called anywhere in the world. The way my brother was treated when he accepted the ridiculous call caused him to leave the church, and added to the cause of my own journey from the organization a few years after his exit. This song means a lot to both of us.

clipped by: largerego
clipper's remarks: Not the happiest song in the world, but this is one of [now] several music videos done by The Glib where the front man Pete Chompsky re-records the vocal track while recording the video. It's almost as good as seeing them live. Pete's a god.

clipper's remarks: I love this song, it was recorded on camera and looped by the same person, one part at a time. It's not finished but it's more of a musical experiment I would say than a completed work

My dream house concepts

Tue, 06 Mar 2007 14:26:17 GMT

clipped by: wkevine
clipper's remarks: If this house or the concept is of any interest to you, I would highly recommend getting a copy of a great book that shows the details of planning, design and building called, "Building a Low Impact Roundhouse" by Tony Wrench.
I just got my copy a few days ago and can't seem to put it down.

You are looking at pictures of our family home in Wales. It was built by myself and my father in law with help from passers by and visiting friends. 4 months after starting we were moved in and cosy. I estimate 1000-1500 man hours and £3000 put in to this point. Not really so much in house buying terms (roughly £60/sq m excluding labour).

The house was built with maximum regard for the environment and by reciprocation gives us a unique opportunity to live close to nature. Being your own (have a go) architect is a lot of fun and allows you to create and enjoy something which is part of yourself and the land rather than, at worst, a mass produced box designed for maximum profit and convenience of the construction industry. Building from natural materials does away with producers profits and the cocktail of carcinogenic poisons that fill most modern buildings.

The Blackest Material

The Blackest Material

"Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have created 'the world's first material that reflects virtually no light.' This anti-reflection technology is based on nanomaterial and could lead to the development of more efficient solar cells, brighter LEDs, and 'smarter' light sources. In theory, if a room were to be coated with this material, switching on the lights would only illuminate the items in the room and not the walls, giving a sense of floating free in infinite space."

7 Tips to Increase Your Confidence

1.) Ask yourself, “What’s the worst that could happen?”

2.) In doing something for the first time, imagine that you have already done it in the past.

3.) Find someone who is already confident in that area and copy them.

4.) Use the “as-if” frame.

If you were confident, how would you be acting?

5.) Go into the future and ask if what you’re faced with is such a big deal.

6.) Remember that you lose out on 100% of the opportunities that you never go for.

7.) Disarm the nagging, negative internal voice.
