The EyeWriter project is an ongoing collaborative research effort to empower people who are suffering from ALS with creative technologies. It is a low-cost eye-tracking apparatus & custom software that allows graffiti writers and artists with paralysis resulting from Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis to draw using only their eyes.

Stimulator aka Franklin Lopez serves up his own take on Black Friday, while critiquing Adbuster Magazine’s Buy Nothing Day, and presenting his own alternative, Steal Something Day. With poetic, anarchic words from Crimethinc, and Lopez’s cut-and-paste editing, Why I Love Shoplifting from Big Corporations makes for a nice short.

Kyle of Coast Media Collective recently came across our Video of the Week this week entitled Pigeon Pilfer, and managed to snag an e-mail interview with the creator Michael Stevenson. This is the first interview we have done with Michael but we are pretty sure it won’t be the last. As you can see he has done some great work already, and we at Coast Media Collective are looking forward to seeing more projects from him as time goes on. He has some great talent and we will definitely be keeping our eyes on him.

Pigeon Pilfer is Michael Stevenson’s stop-motion animated student film from San Francisco State University. It was completed in four months with sixty pounds of clay, a digital SLR camera, and one tiny hot room.

For the first installment of our new Video of the Week segment I thought I’d share a wicked music video showcasing the new Hecq and Exillion tune, Sphere of Fury. If you’re into hardcore, amen-breaking dub vibes, don’t sleep on this. From filmmakers Tim Brown and Christopher Hewitt.
