Pillow Fight Club is coming to Minneapolis on May 20th!



Here is a vid from the April 22nd, 2006 Pillow Fight Club in Seattle.

A pillow fight flash mob is a fad that has emerged from the social phenomena of flash mobbing. The flash mob version of massive pillow fights is distinguished by the fact that nearly all of the promotion is Internet-based. These events occur around the world, some taking the name Pillow Fight Club after the London pillow fight group.

The trend owes much to uses of modern communications technologies, including decentralised personal networking, known as smartmobbing. Word of the events spreads primarily via digital means, usually on the internet via email, chat rooms and text messaging which result in seemingly spontaneous mass gatherings. Pillows are sometimes hidden and at the exact pre-arranged time or the sound of a whistle, the pillow fighters pull out their pillows and commence pillow fighting. The pillow fights can last from a few minutes to several hours.

A humorous short touching on the very serious subject of Global Warming. This short was produced by THE BIG ASK. An organization based in the UK, who's slogan is "Friends of the earth".

Another funny vid I found on Google. I'll eventually get around to posting something original. Until then, watch this woman who appears to have be inspired by Peter Finch's "Network" performance.

I shot this in 2004 as part of the Grain Belt Premium Commercial challenge. A cheap JVC consumer camera was used. I did a little color correction in Adobe Premiere. Shot in about 3 hours out at my brother's old place on Lake Minnetonka.

This was taken about 12 years ago. My daughter, Charlotte, lying on the living room floor, talking to my mother.
