Apparently I was able to convince the good people at The Phoenix that I know a lot about the internet (I am not exactly sure how, since my degree is in political science, but that’s besides the point). So since I am such an expert on the subject I would like give our fine readers some periodic suggestions on interesting websites in this “information super highway”)*.
One of my absolute favorite websites is liamlynch.net. Now some of you maybe familiar with Liam’s work, whether it’s his work on the MTV show Sifl & Ollie, his song “The United States of Whatever” or his work with people like Sarah Silverman or Tenacious D, but in his spare time Liam also does a podcast, that you can see at his website liamlynch.net.
I truly believe that if television were completely wiped out of existence tomorrow, I would be happy entertaining my simple mind with web base material. Liam’s podcast is more entertaining then virtually every show on television; even the Adult Swim lineup has been lackluster as of late (stupid japanamiation). Liam’s podcast is kind of like an online variety show, feature his living action sketches, 3D animation, and Sifl & Ollie make an appearance from time to time. In addition, Liam is also a classically trained musician, and will make music video for songs he records at his in home studio.
Liam is what you could call a master at video production, doing a large major of the live action sketches in front of a green screen in his home. Admirably Liam does this podcast for free, giving him total creative freedom.
For most people the liamlynch.net is a good way to pass some time, but for those who spend a majority of our time in the dark, with only the eerie light of a monitor screen to keep warm while we video edit, they might find the site… inspiring? (that’s not the right word but nothing the thersus is giving me works.)
