During the last 5 days I have posted ads on the Internet and around London, looking for the perfect band.
So far I have received over 70 responses. I feel so privileged to live in a place like London where I can find such an abundance of talented musicians; and so honoured that they would want to work with me.
Please don’t stop getting in touch and spreading the word, this band is going to be highly important for me and I want to be certain that we’ve got the right men!
Update 24/01/12: When I said “right men”, I didn’t mean that I wasn’t going to let women join the band; it’s just that all the applicants so far have been male. All women are welcome!
Today whilst looking around for the best tech to display video during my Live Show, I found the VJacket. Perhaps one of the most pointless creations in the world…but also one of the most exciting. Here’s a video of someone demonstrating it:
For those of you who don’t know, “VJ” is essentially “DJ” for videos (in otherwords, live mixing of videos). This guy has created a portable VJ controller in his jacket.
Now, I can’t imagine many of us needing one of these anytime soon…but does it spell the future for our clothing? Are we going to be wearing video T-shirts with inbuilt TV screens controlled by our movement? Maybe instead of deciding whether to wear a red or black T-shirt, you could put the video T-shirt on and choose red…and later on change it to black? Or possibly you could stroke from your neck to the bottom of the T-shirt and it would create a red-to-black gradient?! We’ve got the tech, I wonder how long it’ll be until someone decides to create it.
