Dust Of War

I found this on Post Apocalyptic Media, thought it was rather interesting I am making a post about it. Watch the trailer and read the story behind it.

"The Plot

In a post-apocalyptic American Frontier, a lone soldier fends off a brutal warmonger to rescue a girl fated as the savior of humanity. Our hero joins forces with a cynical veteran and a slimy thief to bring the girl to safety, encountering mysterious invaders and traveling showmen along the way.
The Look
Dust of War can be billed as a South Dakota flavored Mad Max, infused with the earthy textures of Dances With Wolves and the stark beauty of Ingmar Bergman’s The Seventh Seal. South Dakota’s savagely beautiful landscape will serve as the perfect backdrop to a classic action-adventure picture.
What does ‘Dust of War’ mean?
In a literal sense, it represents the settling dust of war itself, from the rubble and carnage to the bomb residue still lingering in the air. The more theoretical interpretation represents the spoils of our humanity."

Yum, Radioactive Water!!

So apparently 48 nuclear power plants are leaking tritium, while this isn't so bad if your say swimming in contaminated water(though you should and I am about to explain why) if you ingest it or it gets in your body the beta waves that it produces....well lets just say you dont want that. Here is a link for more info if you are interested.

Frequency 2156

"Frequency 2156 is a community based Internet radio in which anyone can publish content. Content however has to follow the story of the radio. Every message sent to the radio will be moderated and only material which suits the storyline will be added to the radio.
For more information about the story and instructions http://www.frequency2156.com/faq/

Frequency 2156 has been now up for about 3 months and we're still waiting for more radio messages.

And Now is just a great time to post your first radio message since we have started a Message Contest. Winners and lucky ones will be awarded with Frequency 2156 fan product (t-shirts, hoodies etc.)

More about contest: http://www.frequency2156.com/competition/radio-message-contest-2011/

Ok, I might be going too fast. What is the Frequency 2156?

Frequency 2156 is an internet radio where everyone can send content (community based). Frequency 2156 follows a post-apocalyptic story from the year 2156 which all content must follow. You can listen to the radio, which plays all the accepted messages or you can browse a Message World Map for single messages from various locations. You can also send a request for a radio message to your friends all around the world. And of course, you can send your own radio message as well.

and the story is..

People from the year 2156 have managed to build a time lapse feedback device which they can use to send a simple audio signal and HTML-markup site back to the past. The world in the year 2156 has been destroyed by twenty-year long nuclear/fusion war. Almost all the animals have died, almost every human being is dead. People who broadcast this radio from the future also broadcast the same radio in their time to collect data about the survivors. That is where you come to the picture. You are survivor in the year 2156 and you can send a message to the radio and back to the “past”.

Visit the site http://www.frequency2156.com , come up with your unique radio message and upload it to the radio.

And of course, the site is still pretty young so if you have any improvement ideas, what's working and what is not etc.. Please tell us so we can make it work better.

Happy Surviving and hope to see your messages on the radio soon!!

Dead Island

I was online looking at games, when I came across the gameplay trailer for Dead Island.  And boy, was I impressed. Why may you ask? This is a first person open world zombie game set in the Caribbean on a island that is swamped with the living dead and about to get hit by a storm. Quite frankly, that just sounds awesome to me. But I will leave it to you to decide, watch this video and judge for yourself.
