OMG... well.. videocasting is here and the predictable severely rapid decline of "culture" * may begin.
-----------------------------------------------------
You should check out the Internet TV channel "some pig".
If you don't have DTV, you can get it here:

And then subscribe to this channel:

So yeah, click on "some pig" and then look for "Rezelscheft"... and marvel at what technology has done for us.
Update:
"some pig" videos are directly available here. Do check out Magnifitrick. It is genius.
* I am currently reading "Air Guitar: Essays on Art & Democracy" by Dave Hickey ("Winner of the 'Genius' Award!", "Macarthur Fellow 2001-2005"!), and so far it is a fun ride with incredibly well written insights and is as terribly entertaining as it is smart, in an off-the-cuff way, apparently out of the norm for Mr. Genius. My favorite line so far is "(Define culture!)", which he casts as a sideways shouted taunt at his fellow academics at a University in Las Vegas where he seem to have holed up. I almost yelped an "amen!" out loud...
In any case, Hickey seems to be all up for participatory culture so I would love to hear what he thinks of this. I wonder if I can get my mitts on him...
