Last nite I went to Hype 2008 Dance Competition in Chicago at DePaul University. Here are some videos of the dance crews performing and competing.

Non Stop - This year's winners!

Great choreography and dance fresh (btw I was interested in yours - but really don't know enough about that style to even know if it's good or bad, so declined to comment).

I love how tight their movements are, and how well co-ordinated as a group.

What I don't like is the constant screaming. Good lord - is that common when watching dance?

Mum's the word from this section.

Wow thanks SG. Yeah those dance troupes are really good. My dancing is decent, but not comparable at all to the videos I posted in this thread.

And about the screaming, it's the norm. Sometimes annoying, but it's part of the atmosphere. Pumps people up, gets them excited. And I guess in hip hop dancing there's just those times when it's so good and so raw that the crowd just explodes with it's approval. Part of the competition is to work the crowd.

Elaborate claymation cartoon teaches kids about Satan:

Because everything bad that happens is because of Satan, right?

Everyone might have seen this already but I find it intriguing. It's like witnessing evolution or maybe this fish was just really really bored one day and took to the sky.



Fish flys for 45 sec.

It would have flown longer if Cheney hadn't shot it.

It's like it was like "I'm going straight from water, to the skies. Fuck walking first!"

Didn't show when it hit the chopper's windshield.

If you advance the video list there is a bunch of will ferrel videos including the Landlady one starring his friends daughter from a year ago.

Is this guy nuts or am I just a party pooper?

OMG!! This is so cool! I want to go see this!

I was looking up articles about Buzz Lightyear going aboard the Discovery. I guess Disney and NASA has teamed up....so when I found an article there was this video of a large telescope under the Brooklin bridge. You can see people from London in it and visa versa!! There is a short commercial before so wait a second or two! I am totally blown away!

I'm going! We've got fliers for it at work (being an arts company and all).
I even applied to jump the queue, but they turned me down, something about other people having business meetings and proposals and family blah, blah, blah.

Still going to be worth going, just for fun.
Next weekend probably, it's about 40 minutes on the bus (about 10 by Tube)
