-first song, not too sure what Jay-Z song it is, but John Mayer kills it..

-then there’s this little interlude where Mayer does a riff from Jay-Z’s “Dirt of Your Shoulder”

-then once Mayer starts playing the guitar part for Jay-Z’s “DOA,” down comes the house.

EPIC PERFORMANCE.

Maybe its the rythmic tones or the almost sinister sounding vioce, either way, Julian Plenti will send chills down your spine (both good and bad). Our first double feature of a singer begins with Julian Plenti, whose real name is actually Paul Banks and is also the lead singer from last weeks featured band Interpol. Why do this? Banks has actually been performing under this alias for over seven years and not only that but some of the songs featured on his debut album Julian Plenti is…Skyscraper he wrote over ten years ago! The man is absolutely brilliant and in this debut album he incorporates many different sounds, he even brings in a symphony for acouple killer songs. Disregard the song Unwind, its not only terribe, but it doesn’t even fit the feel of the rest of the cd. That being said PLEASE check out Girl On the Sporting News it is curently my new favorite and is not the type of song you only listen to once. As for the rest of the album, chek it out, and like always you won’t be disappointed!

First things first… what IS augmented reality?

According to Wikipedia, “augmented reality is term for a live direct or indirect view of a physical real-world environment whose elements are merged with (or augmented by) virtual computer-generated imagery – creating a mixed reality.”

If I can describe augmented reality as simple as possible, you can basically control and manipulate the virtual environment yourself.

Below is a video of me actually using augmented reality on John Mayer’s music video-

[Tip: 1) you have to have a webcam and 2) after you print out or download the Battle Studies icon, line that up with the icon you see on the screen via the webcam-this is what starts the video]

 

 

Iron Man 2 is steadily under development as the sequel’s release of may 7, 2010 nears. What to expect in this action flick? Well, the movie picks back up on Tony Stark (Robert Downing Jr.) about six months after he revealed his identity as Iron Man at the press conference according to USA Today and Empire Online. Expect epic battles as more characters are thrown into the mix and maybe even Stark’s buddy James Rhodes (Don Cheadle replaces Terrence Howard) to suit up as War Machine. Rumors of the Avengers and Nick Fury’s (Samuel L. Jackson, who made an appearance after the credits in Iron Man) S.H.I.E.L.D. making appearances in this new movie will soon be confirmed so stay tuned!
