In this episode of Boing Boing tv: Mark's exploration of Mister Jalopy's drive-in movie theater on a bicycle starts out normal enough, but gets pretty trippy when Jalopy opens the lid. Care Bears, orangutans, and Mister Rogers all make cameo appearances. All of this magic took place at a "mini Maker Faire" during Felt Club 2007, an annual exposition of cool crap made by interesting people. When the buzz wears off, we step into the Beijing Accelerator. Rotterdam-based artist Marnix de Nijs created this immersive virtual reality experience in which a seated user rotates at the same speed as the landscape they're viewing. This, too, is trippy. Coop suggests that it be known as "Barf Barf Revolution."
