The OS X desktop as music video
A digital filmmaker named Dennis Liu has made an amazing video for The Bird And The Bee's lovely song "Again & Again". The set? His Mac desktop. You sort of have to see it for yourself to understand; luckily, Dennis has dropped it on YouTube so that the world can see it in low-res glory:
Innovative, and definitely cool. It doesn't seem to be an "official" video for the song...but if it isn't, it oughtta be. (Hey, Bird! Bee! Y'all paying attention?)
Thanks, Ted Roddy!

It's an amazing video, and it really shows how much work Apple has put into OSX to make it flow smoothly and look beautiful.
Also, I noticed that the video had to have taken a while to prepare, because he went back about a month in Time Machine.

This is fake. In case you haven't noticed already, Apple has been moving AWAY from black glossy plastic - everything is now aluminum. After all, weren't we just hearing that the MacBooks are going to go aluminum this summer? Why would Apple make everything metal except for their flagship portable device?
The specs are probably accurate, but that image is not.

Wow, awesome video.
Not so awesome song, a little too repetitive IMO.

I think that's the point.
She just does the same thing again and again.
Great stuff, though, especially the subliminal (or rather superliminal) message for buying the song on iTunes
