pomplamoose does gaga.

this is pretty fantastic. their version of single ladies is also worth a listen.

alejandro.

this song reminds me of borderline/la isla bonita era madonna. and although it's not my favorite, it's still pretty damn catchy. and now it has a ridiculous video to go with it. enjoy!

polaroid v. fuji

what's up with polaroid's new instant film camera? i thought that when they came back with their famous instant film i would be overjoyed, but instead i'm just confused.

i became aware of polaroid's new model through a fellow photographer and friend, and i think both of us are a bit puzzled.

here's the deal: polaroid broke hearts when they announced they would be no longer producing their iconic instant film. organizations sprung up to save the film, such as savepolaroid.com. but in the midst of this fuji launched their own instant film. diehards could never fully convert from polaroid to fuji, but the instax was a wonderful compromise, because at least someone was still producing instant film.

but now, after so much turmoil, polaroid has announced that they will be producing their much loved instant film once more (thanks in part, no doubt, to lady gaga). BUT! their new cameras looks just like the fuji instax mini 7. the polaroid camera is an icon, why on earth would they change the design to mimic a less successful competitor?? this might upset me more than it should, but it also makes me more inclined to pick up an instax of my own. if polaroid is ripping them off they must be good.

telephone

a while back i posted about lady gaga and beyonce's collaborations. well here is the visual product of one of those collaborations:



CRAZY.

and i generally hate gratuitous product placement, but in the case of Polaroid i have to let it slide.

“Ballets Russes, Italian Style — Coming Soon.”

i know, i know. enough with lady gaga. but i do love her and this clip has so many fantastic things happening in under 3 minutes.

check it.

lady gaga & elton john

it's true that Lady Gaga is a freak show. but what a show! i think she's just fantastic. see for example her recent performance at the Grammy's with Sir Elton.

the lady loves her phones.

in honor of the news that Lady Gaga will be collaborating with Polaroid on specialty projects, i thought it would be nice to take a look at two of Lady Gaga's other (relatively) recent collaborations.

personally, i think telephone is much better than videophone. but that's just me.
