Tony sez, "Attached is a stop-motion video my filmmaker friend Justin Grizzoffi and I made a couple of years ago. It was super easy to make - we simply edited together a couple hundred still photos of Post-Its stuck to a wall and scored it using samples from an old Casio SK1 keyboard."

The sound effects in that last game bought back memories of many hours spent in front of the Atari as a child :)
Sadly, It has been 2 years since I signed up for boing boing and I no longer remember my password or the email account associated with my name - my computer remembered for me. But now the whole thing has changed and I can't sign in. I wish there was something I could do but when I searched for moderation policy (where people are usually nice and fix things) and when I searched my user name I got pages that said that was private unauthorized info. Is there any chance that things will change so that my browser will again recognize your site? Or should I just think it has been a good two years and move on. Afterall, I never got all my "favorites" back after the last "upgrade". Sigh.
Either you just got viralled, or Post-it bought it for an ad after the fact. Any idea which it is?
I guess it doesn't really matter, though, it's still adorable. Wasteful, but adorable.
Er- isn't this a commercial for Post-Its, and not a homemade video? There's clearly a logo at the end.
Moreover, the SK1 didn't make synth sounds like that. It was PCM-sample based, not a true wave generator.
i've got a casio sk-1 and it absolutely makes those sounds. in fact, i've got mine making them now. sorry, brett.
Hi Everyone,
I'm one of the creators of the vid - thanks for your comments.
1) The video was made out of fun (and boredom) then tagged with the logo after it was finished - I was in ad school at the time and wanted to use it for a class.
2) The soundtrack is all SK1 samples - the game SFX are from free sound project (if I recall correctly)
Thanks again,

"The video was made out of fun" ... me write good now.
