“Turning of the lights, really? Is that all you’ve got for us this time? I mean, we know how to turn off lights- why does there need to be an instructional video? Sometimes I’m ashamed to be associated with this project. . . .”
YouTube Commentary:
“I tried this, but fell and cut my elbow. How do I clean up all the blood/stop the bleeding?”

“I just don’t get it…at night this works fine but at day it does nothing….totally bizarre…”

“Here’s a quick tip, clean the place and you’ll find everything. How was this useful? Shortest vid ever! The only thing that saved you was the attempt at political commentary- burning oil fields. Not sure of the relevance though. . . .”
Hey! Not to be confusing, but this is the second Erosia album available, but its the fourth one completed. And not to be further confusing, this disk was created by breaking up Erosia 3 which was too large. . . .This one is called ER4, many of these tracks are found on The Filthy Kitchen and The Remi Stevens Blog. I’ve noticed the third track, which is my personal fav on this one, was used by Craig in the Garbage Bag Chair video and the Sink Dishwasher. Surprisingly, I haven’t yet tried singing to a single one of these tracks, just doesn’t seem to fit anywhere. . . . .
So get in a comfy chair, blast your clock radio, stand on your head, make street drugs, rent a camel. . . .do whatever it is you do to listen to music and enjoy:
Whether you’re a home owner, renter or squatter, furnishings are more than just a status symbol, they are a daily source of comfort and relaxation. By following Remi’s simple demonstration, an unused corner will not only become a practical seating niche, but your living quarters will be cleaned in the process.
For a more experimental look, try using a clear garbage bag.

Alright, I know some people preach this as the greatest upgrade in efficiency since the mechanical man. Multitasking is pretty fantastic, but its position in the hierarchy of efficiency must be considered. If you multi-task poorly, you risk doing a crappy job of any of your particular tasks. But more importantly, poor multitasking can interfere with your efficiency and lengthen the time it takes to finish.
Walking Vending Machines!
Not sure if the coke vending robot is real, but It makes sense to me that the first robot walking on the streets would be a vending machine. Either vending machines or meter maids, they’ve both been on the streets for years just waiting to get mobile.
Wait, multi-tasking. Example: You need to make a call, clean some dishes and make a pizza. The call will take 15min, the dishes will take 30mins and the pizza with preparation time will take 60min. So long as making the call and washing the dishes don’t cause you to spend more than 60min overall, multitasking is welcomed. The trick is to finish the time crucial elements of the longest task immediately as they come up. Prep and ovenize the pizza, wash the dishes during cooking, make the call during dishes, pull the pizza out to cool at the 55min mark, eat on schedule. Sure you’re switching gears and that’s inadvisable, but in the pizza scenario it can be done safely and responsibly. The idiot who finishes up the call and the dishes first realizes he’s still got to wait another hour until he eats!
Computer ‘multitasking‘, you’re checking email while listening to music and downloading 30 movies. But, a computer is only ever actually able to do one thing at a time, it just goes back and forth between tasks so fast you can’t tell. Multiple processor computers are multitasking i suppose, but each processor only ever handles a single string of ones and zeros. Its all just switches people, everything in the digital world is made up of switches no more complex than the one you use to turn on the bathroom light. The monitor asks the processor to flip 2 million switches so it can display a pic of a rose, the mouse is asking for 60000 bathroom switches to be thrown so a right click can be registered, it goes on and on. . . .The processor’s inbox is a scattered mess, but it still doesn’t ever flip more than a single switch at once. Computers do not multi-task, they just switch gears unbelievably fast and efficiently.
Human Multitasking; are you really multing your tasks? Isn’t every task really getting done in a new manner and therefore being something other than what you’d initially set out to do? I mean, if you were to multi-task trampolining with going to the toilet, the two tasks intercede and you end up with an entirely new behaviour that is more than the sum of the two. The term works, sure, you are doing ‘multiple’ things. Not only that, both of the initial objectives are completed, you really did both jump and poop. But be careful, the tasks themselves change when you multi-task. Getting it all over yourself isn’t a common objective for going to the bathroom, nor is this standard trampolining procedure. To ensure he’s doing what he set out to do, a good multi-tasker must differentiate good and bad combinations.
Its great to have pets, but they can be a lot of work, especially if you’ve got to leave them on their own for a bit. If you follow this Remi Steven’s quick tip. Your animal friends can experience the pride of self-sustainability through periodic independence.

“First off let me say that i hate pets and couldn’t really care less. Also, kennels are for dogs and those are chickens! That said, this seems a bit cruel. I mean, imagine you went into a restaurant and were asked to shit next to your table and drink from where you piss. . . .Yes this will keep the animals alive.”
In a world with more remote controlled products than minutes in the day, Remi Stevens’ reveals a quick, affordable tip to consolidate your remote controls. Following this simple advice enables you to live longer without leaving your couch.

“Is it me or were there some real techwological differences with this vid. The audio seems all out of sync or something, and did you call your remotes the ‘holy trinity’? That’s just offensive. I’m being a little lenient with regards to the score here however, since this one technically works- if you don’t give a shit what your stuff looks like!”
Remi Stevens demonstrates a hands-free approach to washing dishes. All you’ll need for this one is a sink and your dirty – soon-to-be-clean – dishes. Remi Stevens’ “environmental” approach uses no chemicals, only water.

“Just a warning this is not recommended if you are the least bit ecologically concerned. Can you imagine how much water this wastes, are you actually recommending people do this? . . . . . I highly doubt this even works. . . . . You wore the same shirt last time, real creative guys!”

You’d have to keep topping up the water constantly, and I’m not entirely sure that boiling laundry soap doesn’t give off toxic fumes. Mess of Wires Studios netted a cool million with the corporate products mentioned in this one!

Make sure you have a tight sealing cap. Air can’t come in the top to replace water that would leave out the bottom, so water doesn’t leave. Its the same reason you put two holes in large pourable containers- air and water use different holes reducing the glug, glug, glug.

“The production team let me down entirely on this project. It was hard to see, the ’science’ wasn’t particularly intersting, and the overall feel was cheap. The last scene seemed cut short to hide the fact that the contraption didn’t work. And of course you need a tap to make this tap so what’s the point?”
