Video: How we got extinct and Popcorn

Johannes from Vienna's Monochrom collective sez, "Our little electronica video animation 'The Earth Has Been Destroyed' (created together with Christoph Marek) about the future of mankind, how we got extinct and Popcorn. Enjoy."

monochrom (feat. Marek): The Earth Has Been Destroyed (Thanks, Johannes!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

I love the idea that Popcorn, at whatever tempo our robot overlords choose to play it at, will be mankind’s legacy.

I wonder if Monochrom’s anti-spam bots would detect Randall Munroe’s helpful spambots:

the spam wars would continue without us!

Because I think I heard someone say Popcorn!

This video is ironic, due to the fact Popcorn was originally played on an all analog, Moog synthesizer and the voice-over is about computers taking over the World. I liked the 1972, Hot Butter mix of Popcorn, before the song sold out and everyone with a synthesizer did their own mix.

Hey, I think I just became a hipster!
