THE ANTICS ROADSHOW

The Antics Roadshow from StreetArtNews on Vimeo.

An hour-long special made by Banksy charting the history of behaving badly in public, from anarchists and activists to attention seeking eccentrics.

Contributors include Michael Fagan talking about breaking into the Queen's bedroom: 'I looked into her eyes, they were dark'; and Noel Godin, who pioneered attacking celebrities with custard pies: 'Instead of a bullet I give them a cake'.

Explaining his reasoning behind the show, Banksy said: 'Basically I just thought it was a good name for a TV programme and I've been working back from there'.

Narrated by Kathy Burke and produced by Jamie D'cruz, The Antics Roadshow examines the stories behind some of the most audacious stunts of recent times and what motivates the perpetrators, from mindless boredom to heartfelt political beliefs.

It includes a world exclusive first interview with the man responsible for putting the turf Mohican on Winston Churchill's head.

THE ILLUSION OF CHOICE

This video is a great compilation of social criticism by the legendary George Carlin. Conspiracy is a myth, this is how it works.

My phone is often tuned in to the Radio Carlin stream while driving. You can find it here.

The Academy-Award nominated animated short-film tells the story of a lonely inventor, whose colorless existence is brightened only by dreams of the carefree bliss of his youth. By day, he is trapped in a dehumanizing job in a joyless world. But by night, he tinkers away on a visionary invention, desperate to translate his inspiration into something meaningful. When his invention is complete, it will change the way people see the world. But he will find that success comes at a high price, as it changes himself, as well.

BEAST 6-06-6

THE BEAST COMPUTER

There are those technophobes who speculate that the Beast is a computer that will be set up by a future one-world leader. This computer is purported to already exist. One of its servers is online in Belgium. The computer is called "Beast 6-06-6." It was programmed to control all monetary transactions in the European conglomerate countries (EEC) who now function on one monetary unit called the Euro.

Many theorists have hypothesized that some time in our near future, the world will be dominated by one world leader who will run Earth through the Beast computer. No one will be allowed to buy or sell without the mark of the Beast in their hand (a money card or implanted microchip or fingerprint ID) or their forehead (remembering a PIN number or having a microchip placed within their forehead). People will, literally, be scanned at check-out counters, banks, etc.
