Ever since the Hipster Olympics meme died, I’ve just been searching for an embeddable video that accurately reflected the current alternative zeitgeist in trendsetting major metropolitan arts communities. Most of the time these videos are made by ‘mainstreamers who go to film school who are releasing their inner-angst for not having an authentic personal brand which would give them credibility within their Film Criticism Class.’ H8 when these mainstreamers get their mainstream/aging GenXer friends to play ‘hipsterz’ in these videos.

/// Just want something that I am allowed 2 identify with, bc it ‘holds a mirror up 2 me’ and reflects who I really am.

XX BONUS MARKETING GIMMICK FROM 2K7 XX

This video reminds me of the glory days of 2k7. Back when masked DJs were a gimmickable gimmick, and the world’s ears were hungry for bangers. I haven’t even heard a banger in 10 blog years. Will the world still want 2 ‘party’ as hard as the people in this video in 2k9?
Will ‘alt celebs’ be ‘celebs’ in 2k9?
Will Uffie pour booze on my passed out, masked body in 2k9?

The person who guesses + itemizes them correctly will receive a case of Diet Rock Star NRG drink.

This is my idea of a perfect day. This is my authentic life. One day, I will be the star of a meaningful reality show shot with my best altBagBro’s HighDefinition camera which he obtained with a Canadian Art grant. It will be an opportunity to showcase my environment. This is my personal space (my apartment is a well designed space). This is my meaningful major metropolitan area. I will walk around the city, and I will cover walls with printed out ‘meaningful statements typed in Helvetty’ on 8.5×11 paper. My contribution to society will be converting ‘internet memes’ into ‘real life’ memes [via computer paper + my HP inkjet printer].

The overall tone of this video is ‘hopeful’ and with a healthy dose of ‘meaningful.’
Kinda wonder if it was shot b4 or after Obama won the Presidenthingy.
