“Computers & Medicine” from a 1991 episode of Computer Chronicles.
Other than the obviously cozy nostalgia that this video conjures up, I was actually really impressed with the designs of the medical hypercard program (2:00 mark, roughly). The constraints of the format back then sure created a singularity of focus. I actually think a program that simple would be quite useful today in a lot of different diagnosing applications.
- “Everything Fall Apart” video by Yoshi Sodeoka, one of my favorite digital artists who used to run the sublime Word.com and then the digital studio C404, which I had the pleasure of visiting one day about ten years ago.
The weekend. Enjoy.
Regarding the above, I forgot how much Fully Flared did to reinvigorate my passion for skateboarding when it came out in 2007 (it should be noted that I was barely a skateboarder when I was young; I never learned how to pick up my deck). The aggression, the drive, the individuality, the danger, it’s all here, cut against the most unlikely track in the world (M83’s Lower your eyelids to die with the sun).
Ceremony, Joy Division (performed by Radiohead). Thanks, Latif.
