Yes, this actually happened. He was hitting RECord for me. I imagine this is what it must be like to work for Disney.

My cat has been slacking off lately.

HERE IS A VIDEO OF ME HAVING A MELTDOWN OVER HOW AMAZING MATH BOOKS ARE

fallingalice contributed her text record, Vinegar (A Monologue), to the RE: MY FAVORITE THINGS collab.  And obviously, I liked it.  I still can't predict it, but sometimes certain pieces of writing just make me want to read them aloud.  Well done alice!  

I'll be curious to see how this might get used to make a little short film or something...

A film about a magician with real powers. Inspired by "The Prestige" and "The Illusionist" - Hope this inspires. I directed, shot, edited, wrote, and composed music for this film.

You can download the entire trailer to my movie "DON JON" here. This version is without music for all your REmixing pleasure.

I'm really curious to see what kind of RECords we can make with this footage here on hitRECord! 

Thanks again <3

You may have heard that I wrote and directed the upcoming movie "DON JON." It's a comedy about this guy named Jon who is very into his things - his car, apartment, body, and the women in his life that he treats like objects on a shelf. I want us all to make art regarding the theme "MY FAVORITE THINGS."

For instance, ask yourself: What are your favorite things? Can you truly love a thing? Can people be considered 'things?' Do our favorite things define us?

I've had this movie in my head for so long now, I'm really curious to see what kind of stuff it inspires us to make together.

Jared's favorite thing is an Eames Rocker, so we made a short film about it for the 'Don Jon' collab "RE: My Favorite Things."

I'm gonna have a close eye on this collab and I'm really looking forward to seeing where this it goes!

Thanks again <3

Featuring bubbabuster, joerud & svirlee (and various ambience tracks from Joe's "Words We're Wailing" collab).

As ever, this is a pretty hastily made mix. Not sure it is/should be the final mix. Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again for your awesome contributions, Julz, Joseph & Illia! You guys kick ass! <3

I'm up for dancing when you sing
And I'm up for singing when you dance
I'm up for eating anything you make

I'm up for shaking when you stir
And I'm up for stirring when you shake
I'm up whenever you're awake

But I'm down, down, down
when you're leaving
I am down, down, down
when you're not around
I am down, down, down
when you don't make a sound
Oh baby
I'm basement low when you say no

Such a low
Watch me go

Down.
