Spending a huge amount of money is easy when you’re without a mortgage, kids or a full time job. To ease my financial guilt, I recently put together this list of fifty fun, bizarre and slightly mad ways in which I managed to blow $50K over the years — buying myself nothing but amazing memories and the odd persistent stomach bug.

This is the new video for Vladislav Delay — the alter-ego of Finnish composer Sasu Ripatti, also known for his work as Luomo and Uusitalohas. Taken from the recent Tummaa album, the video for the single Toive was directed by Carolina Melis (who has previously made videos for labelmates Efterklang and Colleen) and Lorenzo Sportiello, and is a journey into a spectacular miniature landscape, with crystals forming and transforming into new substances. Read Vladislav Delay’s Secret Playlist.

Neato video by artist and musician Jean-Paul Frenay about some futuristic corporation that has developed ‘organic virtual reality’ software designed to retrieve the memories of mankind. We assume that ‘organic’ simply means drippy, bulbous, and tendril-y.

A follow-up to New York photographer Martynka Wawrzyniak ‘Kids’ show, Ketchup exposed another dimension of her subjects tied together through a spraying of the thickly tomato sauce — at Wawrzyniak herself. It’s quite a sight! This exclusive video made for the Feature Shoot site captures the behind the scenes action from her experimental performance which was filmed and screened the day of the exhibition, alongside her appropriated imagery.

A Japanese game show where you have to combat a sped-up treadmill, eating food bits along the way risk being dumped in a pool of water, and ultimately reach the end with your dignity at least somewhat in tack? It couldn’t exist. Could it?

Jake and Dinos Chapman are on the same level as the South Park duo, as far as I’m concerned. I draw the parallel in my mind, but whether anyone would agree, I don’t know. It’s like they took every sketch I made as a kid and turned them into the most awesome play set ever. Their art is one of those things that just resonates with me. The sense of humor, the commentary, and the pure graphic overload will keep you engaged for days. I wish they would make a movie of this.

This eye-melting video, made from over four hundred appropriated video clips, is installed in the elevators of the Standard Hotel in New York City. If someone can identify the clip of the gyrating lady with a black hood in the middle of the earth segment, I will be eternally grateful. I know I’ve seen that image before, most likely in a metal video, but I can’t remember where.

David OReilly’s animation, Please Say Something, is one of the most sophisticated I’ve seen, narratively speaking. It tackles the subject of dysfunctional relationships with a Bergman-esque disjointedness, cast with a cute but tragic cat-and-mouse pair who live in a distant future. The film is emotionally resonant, to say the least — watch with caution, it could make or ruin your day depending on your mood.

Sure, this parody song is great on its own, but this accompanying video of someone doing a rather nice drawing of Kanye as a gay fish takes it to the next level.

I’m mesmerized by the weird yet strangely wonderful work of Daito Manabe, a Japanese video artist who puts electrodes on his face to make glitchy electronic music.

Ann Arbor-based indie quintet Tally Hall just released this impressive video for their song, Ruler of Everything. It kind of reminds me of an indie version of a Tool video.

FFFFOUND! is a fun website that allows you to bookmark your favorite images from the Internet and share them with fellow users, sort of like a del.icio.us specifically for pictures. The site is still in private beta and not currently supported on Mac, but as its collection of images expands, it’s likely to become much more widely available.
