Just. Plain. Awesome.
In case you forgot this about me, I love music and am pretty much a nerd when it comes to kewl tech stuff. I found this video while browsing a HD-capable video-sharing site (http://vimeo.com).
Watch this--you can't not be amazed:
HD Carol of the Bells - 2007 from Richard Holdman on Vimeo.
Awesome, huh?
I know there's more displays (and videos) like this out there. Feel free to share more with us in the comments!
[Update] You can't watch in HD from the embedded video player, but you can visit this page on the Vimeo site to get this in HD http://vimeo.com/610626
[Update] From BrianA on Facebook: "There is also a really cool house in murray. If you go to www.christmasutah.com you can see video's for the last couple of years. You should go check it out."
Cool drums
Back in middle school, I was introduced to the percussion competition called Drum Corps International (it probably helped that its initials were DCI--see #2...). Since that time, I have continued to be amazed at the cool things that can be done. In one of the many forwards (that come from he-who-shall-not-be-named) that come to our email account was the following clip. Needless to say, I was again impressed.
Watch the video yourself, and let me know what you think:
