Today: a new installment of Boing Boing tv's 8-Bit Theater, featuring My Little Pony and the (hungry) animated head of David Bowie (classic game footage from The Dot Eaters). Then, Borna Sammak of Free art and Technology transforms the 8-bit classic game CONTRA into a melty, gooey, hallucinatory haze.
