This is actually 20 different YouTube videos, but it's pretty cool. It's basically a bunch of strangers working separately to create a song that fits together but is different for each listener. You can click for more info on the site to read more about the project. http:/ Also, a message from Louis CK about the things we take for granted: http:/ |

Rodrigo, I love that collaborative/interactive music project! Here's another one that's similar (but pre-mixed): ThruYOU (fix your links and embed the video, though -- you can do it! remember: click "Add/Remove editor") You guys are doing a great job compiling what I'm calling "YouTube on YouTube (and other social networks)" -- I started a PLAYLIST with your selections and added some of my own. I'm surprised there's not a playlist of all the memes referenced in "Pork and Beans," but here's an attempt to list them. Building on the songs about social networks genre, here's one for Twitter and YouTube itself: Riffing off Rodrigo's Conan clip, I then added a couple videos on the history of technology theme. Keep it up! I think we'll just watch through this playlist in lab tonight. Remember that I also asked you to take a look at Alex Juhasz's multimedia article Learning the 5 Lessons of YouTube. If you're interested in more academic discourse on YouTube, here's an hour-long lecture by Michael Wesch: |

This video reminds me of our video game discussion; it also has a sort of cyborg quality :) |

So we were talking about people using avatars in the digital world, but what about people posing as avatars in the physical world? I'm not sure if they're faking.... |

http:/ This seemed relevant in light of the closing video from lab tonight, if only to show that not every black person on the internet buys into the culture of ignorance and instant gratification presented by "black on youtube" |
