We mentioned it previously, but here's a recap:

We appeared on You, Me, Them, Everybody LIVE, a podcast recorded at a number of locations (including one of our favorite bars, the Looking Glass Lounge in DC). Everybody got drunk (some more than others), the speakers or the mixing board or something distorted a lot, and by the end of the night we played a few songs.

Note to self -- Jim Beam is not the best stage manager, and headphones aren't a bad idea when the stage isn't actually a stage and there aren't any monitors.

This isn't from the Looking Glass, but it gives you an idea how the night went...

Check out our episode of the podcast by clicking here; Lisa's interview and our performance are toward the end, but don't skip ahead like a chud. It's hilarious and you'll be missing out on the other great interviews.

If you like it, or you're at least curious enough to come see a free show, come to garmentDISTRICT* March 12 at 7 p.m.  We're playing a free show with our good friends Dance for the Dying, I personally guarantee it'll be super radical.

According to a release from the Associated Press via Apple, South Korean director Park Chan-wook is going to release a new movie in his home country Jan. 27. The film, "Paranmanjang," breaks new ground in filmmaking -- it's filmed entirely using the iPhone. The plot seems sufficiently twisted, but I'm going to stick with the technical side of things. Click that AP/Apple link to read more about the plot.

As you can see in the behind-the-scenes promo video below, they didn't simply point and click to "film" this 30-minute thriller. There's a sophisticated lens attachment system and of course appropriate dolly and lighting equipment for a major cinematic release. Even with this, make-up, costumes and the other trappings of a film set, Park still managed to keep the film's budget around $133,000. (For comparison, the Troma classic B-movie "The Toxic Avenger" had a budget of about $475,000.)

This will definitely change how movies, especially shorts, are made. Knowing Park from his previous work (Oldboy, Thirst), it'll probably mess with your head in ways far beyond "how-in-the-hell-did-he-do-that-with-a-phone?"

*Please pardon the Engrish on the video title. I just realized it calls the movie a "firm." I blame Google for the bad translation.




WOW. I definitely want to make a music video with my phone now! Granted, it doesn't look easy, and I can't even imagine how complicated the capture/edit process could get, but I'm seriously impressed and can't wait to try my hand.

Anybody got a script or any ideas they want to throw my way for a potential Lenorable music video? Let's get weird on a budget.
