Update: Used Cameras to Skid Row; Claymation Splatterpunk; Clay Shirky Guestblog; Mark’s Chickens + Yakety Sax

In this week’s Boing Boing update on BBtv (Here’s a direct MP4 Link, 05:33 duration)…

♦ Remember that project we blogged about a few weeks ago — Donate Your Used Digital Camera to LA’s Skid Row Photo Club? Well, many of you did. The gadgets went to good use at the Skid Row Photo Club, and project participants join us today, live from the heart of Skid Row, to tell you why it mattered (and still does). They’re still accepting used camera donations, and project founders Michael Blaze and Dave Bullock encourage likeminded nerds to start similar clubs in other cities.

♦ Clay Shirky is guestblogging on Boing Boing, and they’ve been terrific, debate-inspiring screeds.

♦ Mark is into all things “down home” of late — including chickens. He shot a time-lapse video of his chickens frolicking around in the back yard, and we did what any responsible viral video producers would do. ADDED YAKETY SAX.

♦ Pesco found some awesome Claymation Splatterpunk movies from a guy in Japan named Takena. He’s a genius. Enjoy the montage in today’s ep.
