Best of BBtv: Leslie Hall is gem-tastic



Boing Boing tv is taking a week off for organic yak-yogurt wrestling on a private Himalayan island; we leave you to enjoy some of our crew's favorite past episodes in the meantime.

"Gem sweater diva" and midwestern maven Leslie Hall has appeared twice on our show. The video featured above is a tour diary she recorded just for us. If you like that, check out our backstage visit with her during a stop in San Francisco, below. "With these shoulder pads, I have the strength to destroy villages, homes and crops."

Original BBtv posts:

Zombie Love



Love is forever. So is being undead. Excerpts from "Zombie Love," a film by Yfke Van Berckelaer which was recently released on DVD (special thanks to Ben Rodkin!).

Zen of Zombie trailer is now undead. Er, live.




Last week on Boing Boing tv, we showed "the making of" -- now, here's the real thing. Jason Wishnow's book trailer for the new book, "The Zen of Zombie : Better Living Through the Undead".

Link to ZEN OF ZOMBIE video, and here's the backstory.

Zombie Yoga: 100 undead, doing poses in the park



The invite said "Bring a Yoga Mat - Dress Like a Zombie." When filmmaker and Boing Boing pal Jason Wishnow set out to create a trailer for Scott Kenemore's new book "The Zen of Zombie : Better Living Through the Undead" (yes, people make video trailers for books!) a vision came to his brrraiiiiinns. Why not gather 100 people in a Brooklyn park, dress them as zombies, and film them all doing yoga? There's no inner peace like undead inner peace.

So today on Boing Boing tv, in honor of Halloween, we've produced a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Jason's Zombie Yoga trailer. Watch out for flying guts when they do "downward decapitated dog" or "corpse pose." (Music by T.bias.) -- XJ
