Eventually the corporations will figure out how to put a box around the average person's experience of the Internet. But right now, it's going to be fun to be a pop culture junkie in the next few years!

Directing a music video is coming, it's just that I haven't found the group that will let me do something as way out as I want to do. I have approached two bands last year about it and both were not up to what I was suggesting. For example, setting up and performing – in full costume and make-up – on a crowded subway in the middle of the day.

I'm getting back into my filmmaking, though, so you're going to see a lot of cool stuff from me this year on that end.

WOW – There is definitely a lot of art in this. I love the movie references in this video and it is beautiful played out and stunning to watch (the costumes, makeup alone make it appealing to me).

Sean, I think you are onto to something there with the one episode per week thing – it would take music videos into a whole new generation, one that is potentially far more exciting than watching MTV or Much Music ever was.

I would love to see you direct a video!
