Berlin Digital

While try­ing to dig into the Berlin elec­tron­ica scene, the good record stores etc., I came across Berlin Dig­i­tal as I was brows­ing the shelves of Dense (which is also an excel­lent record store — lots of Mille Pla­teux, Staub­gold, dub, breakcore).It’s an 2004 DVD (175 min­utes) shot in ten days, high­light­ing some of the Berlin elec­tro scene, fea­tur­ing labels like !K7, Shitkat­a­pult, Sonar and Hard:Edged, clubs like Water­gate, peo­ple like Gudrun Gut and much more.

HackerSpejder

To those attend­ing Code­gar­den, it will come as no sur­prise that I totally saw this com­ing: Spe­jdere beredte til cyber­space (arti­cle in Danish).I did a pre­sen­ta­tion enti­tled “How to fas­ten your Umbraco imple­men­ta­tions using web­stan­dards and css — and save the scouts in the process” (cor­rect title to be added later when I get to my Powerpoint-machine).Might not make that much sense, but I’m telling ya: Cor­po­rate remix­ing is the next big thing.

DVD-ripping software?

Any­one know any good DVD-ripping soft­ware for Mac?I’m sup­posed to rip a few min­utes off a DVD for a client to go on a site in an inte­grated player.I’ve already seen the var­i­ous ‘how to steal the lat­est stuff from Hollywood’-software, intended for rip­ping com­plete DVDs and burn­ing them to CDs, but they all seem to focus on tak­ing every sin­gle bit.

I love Boing Boing

…or rather: I find it rather amus­ing (and strangely com­fort­ing), that when you trip over some­thing like this, you can be pretty sure, that it’s already fea­tured on Boing Boing and you just didn’t pay atten­tion at the time.

Comments are still broken

To my sur­prise, I’ve been get­ting quite some mails and real-life com­ments lately, telling me that peo­ple have tried to com­ment on my blog but couldn’t because of some tech­ni­cal fuckup. I know, I know — I even posted a note on the front page some time ago.So while I am already aware of my com­ment trou­ble (I’ll try and fix that soon, hol­i­day is get­ting closer), it seems I’m miss­ing out on good com­ments.
