A lonely fellow is watching a plane in the sky. Suddenly a cheerful bird attracts his attention, which marks the beginning of a dramatic relationship, bringing us straight to the origin of all creation.

The end of Total Request Live, and MTV in general?
Is it too early to say the music video has left Comment (added later):
With the exception of FNMTV, the MTV Suite, and a few shows on MTV2, there really is little left to the pile of rubble that is today's MTV (in America). While MTV does have The Hills, proving that it still has some cultural cachet with its target audience, its sister network VH1 has more going for it with shows like Flavor of Love and Best Week Ever.
What does MTV have that can keep it afloat in the next few years? The Hills. And probably Paris Hilton's My New BFF. From what I can tell, that's it. Will FNMTV save the day? I doubt it. Will MTV eventually restructure and rename itself? At this point, that looks much more likely, as the name Music Television will have lost any use but as a punchline to a long-forgotten joke.
MTV: This is it. The blue pill. Or the red pill. Take your pick.

Minilogue, "Animals" (Dir. Kristofer Strom)
Boing Boing tv has a piece up today by Kristofer Ström of Ljudbilden & Piloten, based in Amsterdam -- a music video he created for the Swedish electronica band Minilogue (label: Cocoon).
From the blog post:
The track is "Animals," and the video features colorful critter-blobs wreaking hyperfun havoc all over an urban real-life-scape.Link to video on Boing Boing tv (where the animation will look far more crisp -- or just mouse over the video embed here on Antville while it's playiing, and select "HD" for a higher-rez version without the compression jaggies!).

Rehearsal Space: Orba Squara
You probably already know the music of Orba Squara, even if you don't realize it. Mitch Davis is the man behind the music. He wrote, recorded, mixed, created the artwork, and now performs (with his live band) the Orba Squara debut album, Sunshyness. It is truly an independent album, but Mitch has garnered widespread attention thanks to high profile commercial licensing, like the Apple iPhone commercial.
In this episode of Rehearsal Space, Mitch talks about how he went from working with other artists to creating his own music on a multitude of organic instruments, including the often broken toy pianos he collects. He explains the importance of creative control, how he ended up licensing out his music to so many places, and explains what we can expect from Orba Squara's second album he's releasing later this year.
