Bibles and Rhymes: An Interview with Why?'s Yoni Wolf
Let's admit something to each other right now--we love seeing heads explode. Don't fight it... it's a perfectly natural, healthy feeling. Probably an inherited vestige of our violent, primal past when bloody cranium blow-outs were necessary to ensure our collective survival. Or something.
Anyhoo, this past weekend, audiences attending screenings of No Country For Old Men at the Alamo Ritz got a satisfying dose of messy 'splosions as the crew from Dorkbot Austin demonstrated their "pneumatic cattle killer" on some unsuspecting, head-like melons in the lobby of the theatre. In the video above, Alamo programmer Lars Nilsen tries out the device, which is similar to one used extensively in the film.
Yay violence! And in case you haven't heard yet, the movie is awesome.

That cattle killer was TERRIFYING live. Sooo loud, it sounded like pure violence.
Yep, Edwin from Dorkbot did a great job! He even hit a few folks in the sixth-street crowd with his blood-splatter when we were out there Friday night! Wonder if they've gotten blood off the Mondo Tee's sign yet?
Air brutality! What finesse!
