I'm a fan of Paper Rad (dot org), though I can't really explain why. From what I can tell, Paper Rad is an art collective based in Pittsburgh, PA, which occasionally doubles as a touring band. They make colorfully art-damaged music videos, Flash animations, and post-modern collages that capitalize on trash culture and pop-cult iconography. Along the way, they splatter surreal combinations of very ugly but very American imagery all over their digital canvases.
Anyhow, they have a photoessay Year In Review up now, set to that song from Dirty Dancing. If you need a quick jolt of absurdity, press play.
Here's their Quicktime trailer for "Barkley's Barnyard Critter's Mystery Tail."
