    Patrick Liddel, a musician who records under the name Ontologist pays homage to Alvin Lucier's performance piece "I Am Sitting in a Room." In that piece, Lucier recorded himself speaking, then played the recording, re-recording it repeatedly -- until the speech was unrecognizable. Liddel's take on the idea is in the form of a YouTube video. The final video (both videos are below) is the result of the video being uploaded 1,000 times, and has degraded to the point where it is unrecognizable. Be sure the volume's down a bit before watching the second video, and you can hit up Liddel's YouTube channel to check out some of the earlier videos.

    These days, it seems like no home theater is complete without an iPod accessory of some sort, so why should your new Sony Bravia LCD HDTV be any different? Now you can officially get your groove on with the TDM-IP1 Digital Media Port dock, which unlike Sony's other stab at iPod docking, connects your compatible Bravia set with your iPod and charges it while playing back your favorite audio and video media. It retails for $99, which is way overpriced for a video iPod dock, but this is Sony after all.
