I’m Matt. I’m 20. I go to Emerson College. I’m a Visual Media Arts: Interactive Media major. Now what does that mean? Well, it means I work with and am constantly learning more about anything from video editing and motion graphics to graphic and web design. My life, and my career as a student revolve around new media. This blog is a whole bunch of things that I may find funny, interesting, or just plain awesome. Some of it will be related to new media, and some of it will not. Either way, enjoy. more info and emailTumblr (3.0; @mattrudinski)http://blog.mattrudinski.com/<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://blog.mattrudinski.com/swf/audio_player.swf?audio_file=http://www.tumblr.com/audio_file/439924931/tumblr_kz3ccdH7hM1qz9iej&color=FFFFFF" height="27" width="207" quality="best"></embed><br/><br/><p><b>Starf***er - Rawnald Gregory Erickson The Second.</b></p> <p>It’s pretty much impossible to listen to this and not feel happy/bounce around/tap your feet.</p> <p>Also: this would appear on “songs that make me dance around like the white man that I am Volume 2.”</p> <p>Oh, and, yeah, this is the song from the Target pharmacy commercial.</p>http://blog.mattrudinski.com/post/439924931http://blog.mattrudinski.com/post/439924931Wed, 10 Mar 2010 19:07:25 -0500dance matt rudinski dancethat's a straight up hipster band name if i've ever seen onerawnald gregory erickson the second<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kz36r6Dkzb1qz9iejo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I can provide proof, too.</p>http://blog.mattrudinski.com/post/439701259http://blog.mattrudinski.com/post/439701259Wed, 10 Mar 2010 17:06:42 -0500laser backdropschool portraits1990smom get out the photo albumMy Top 5 Artists (Week Ending 2010-3-7): The Beatles (43) The Black Keys (38) Mike Doughty...http://blog.mattrudinski.com/post/438965293http://blog.mattrudinski.com/post/438965293Wed, 10 Mar 2010 08:21:44 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kz1rzxwxkI1qz9iejo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><i>Mohawk Mall - Hell Yeah We Got a Bridge</i></p> <p><b>buy it now at media play</b></p> <p>This is only going to be funny to my followers from home.
