One Second Every Day video project by Cesar Kuriyama

Posted by Pete Berg on Friday, May 27th, 2011 at 2:42 pm

A guy I met through Rental Car Rally a few months ago named Cesar Kuriyama is doing an interesting project — he’s taking one second of video of his life every day for one year, documenting his experience and point of view in micro-moments. He has gotten a bit of attention already, because he got into the audition rounds to give a TED Talk on the project. This video here is the trailer that got him selected by the TED Talks committee.

Cesar says he’s planning to launch a website where others join him in recording their own one-second-a-day videos. (Seems like something that would be right up a few Pie Heaven readers’ alley.)

Also…I happen to be in one of the shots in this promo video. I’m the guy dressed as a scientist standing next to the bicycle-riding robot — who is another Pie Heaven contributor, Tim Reese. It’s a quick glimpse of a 2am desert bicycle joust from Rental Car Rally: LA to Tahoe this past February.

Anyway, I wish Cesar luck with the project, and I look forward to seeing the finished 365 second video!

PS: Since we’re on the subject of Rental Car Rally, here’s a video that Cesar put together with footage from the LA to Tahoe rally. There’s another rally coming up at the end of June, LA to Vegas, and I encourage all of you in the SoCal area to sign up. It’s a blast.

Elephant paints a picture…of an elephant. Mind blown.

Posted by Pete Berg on Friday, May 20th, 2011 at 9:46 am

I’ve seen a lot of footage of elephants painting before, but it’s always been very abstract, blotchy images. This elephant paints a recognizable picture of another elephant…and opens up a lot of questions about animal intelligence and artistic expression. Pretty remarkable.

Ricky Gervais, Louis CK, Jerry Seinfeld and Chris Rock discuss Stand-Up Comedy

Posted by Pete Berg on Tuesday, April 26th, 2011 at 1:46 am

Four of the funniest people on the planet discuss stand-up comedy for 50 minutes, talking about how they got started, comparing and contrasting their styles, and discussing what makes things funny. This is a master class in stand-up. Extremely revealing and enlightening. Definitely a must-see if you have the time.

Beautiful humanity in Japanese bullet train ad

Posted by Pete Berg on Monday, April 25th, 2011 at 12:55 pm

Japan Rail announced a commercial shoot from their soon-to-be-opened southern bullet train line, and people all over Japan gathered along the railway to wave at the passing train. This beautiful video is a collective piece of artwork, and it’s this kind of thing that makes me love human beings.
