Today’s entry is a link to another quirky animated piece with even quirkier music. Take a bit of odd sounding jazz, mix in some smooth animation made from hand-drawn art and voila, you have Basin Street Blues. The whole design scheme and French Quarter scenery make this a winner.

Videogame + Music Video = Excellent
Below you will find a link to a small web-based videogame that doubles as a music video. Not only is the game quite good, but the music isn’t half bad either. Enjoy.
Videogame Violence
There is a very good set of interviews regarding videogames and violence up on the site 1up.com. The two inteviewees take separate sides, with lawyer Jack Thompson saying that games are a factor while Henry Jenkins believes in the opposite.
I definitely am of the thought that while games can rise someone’s aggression level, the violence within a person is from something far deeper within them.
