Paperback Writer + Hey Ya = Rad

Friday at The Blackcat, DJ Spooky made me dance.

His moment of genius, for me, was a mix of The Beatles' 'Paperback Writer' and Outcast's 'Hey Ya.'

I remember in college the amount of time I spent listening to terrible hobbyists, who's parents gave them too-big allowances, with lots of amazing toys that they didn't know how to use... in any event, back then it was easy for me to forget that I love a good DJ.

Spooky had three digital turn tables that were attached to video that reacted to all of his changes, moves and scratching. Mike and I have been talking about incorporating video and animation into our work, and now that I've seen it done so beautifully, I'm really anxious to start experimenting.
