So Fucking Awesome LogoThe neat thing about the intarweb is that I have lots of friends scattered here and there, people I know well but have never met in person. In fact, I’ve had the pleasure of being a guest musician on several records being produced by these phantom intarweb people. One of these fellas (Shawn Knight) has a pretty nifty site where he makes music videos for local bands. I’ve always wanted to get into video but the few times I have tried, I’ve quickly realized how much time and patience it takes. It is amazing as well how crappy a video can look if you don’t have the right equipment, but more importantly if you don’t know what you are doing with that equipment.

There aren’t many videos here but I love the Kiddo one. Shawn has done lots of creative things over the years, including artwork, design and music and I’m not surprised that he has moved on to video. I even dig the site design, nicely done.

I was on the last record that Shawn did through his Boyarm creative/distribution/label outfit. It was called “Il Programma Di Religione” and featured 265 songs, each of which was 15 seconds and was a tribute to each of the 265 popes that have existed. It took two and a half years to complete.
