Letter from Teller

This letter from Teller is brilliant. 

“I should be a film editor.  I’m a magician.  And if I’m good, it’s because I should be a film editor.  Bach should have written opera or plays.  But instead, he worked in eighteenth-century counterpoint.  That’s why his counterpoints have so much more point than other contrapuntalists.  They have passion and plot.  Shakespeare, on the other hand, should have been a musician, writing counterpoint.  That’s why his plays stand out from the others through their plot and music. ”

To Find Happiness, Forget About Passion - Oliver Segovia - Harvard Business Review

Inspiring… just read it.

I’ve been a longtime user and tweaker of XBMC and its spinoffs, boxee and plex, and I had (have?) high hopes for google tv, so I’ve been watching this carefully: Ubuntu TV.

After a few years of churning away as a paradise for tinkerers like myself, this market is finally starting to pick up some steam in the mass market, and I think its gonna get really interesting now that some of the bigger players like Ubuntu, Google, and Apple are starting to get involved.

I love when my friends make awesome. I think this is my favorite Shanti video yet. And while we’re at it take a peek at the remix I put together a while ago for that track. Featuring a little love from my 45 shootout bandmates Mr. Andre Soto and Skillinjah on the extra vocals.
