I won’t explain it much except to say that Boy Eats Drum Machine is a one-man group from Portland, Oregon. It has me bopping around the apartment on a Saturday morning. From his site:
Boy Eats Drum Machine is native Portlander, Jon Ragel. As a turntablist and energetic one-man musical act, Ragel spins breaks and surgically inserts sounds while juggling vocals, percussion, and saxophone.
More importantly, the song is La la la la and you can get it here. If you like it, do him a favor and go buy it. Boy Eats Drum Machine-La la la la
My name is Michael Sean Gallagher. I am a Lecturer in Digital Education at the Centre for Research in Digital Education at the University of Edinburgh. I am Co-Founder and Director of Panoply Digital, a consultancy dedicated to ICT and mobile for development (M4D); we have worked with USAID, GSMA, UN Habitat, Cambridge University and more on education and development projects. I was a researcher on the Near Futures Teaching project, a project that explores how teaching at The University of Edinburgh unfold over the coming decades, as technology, social trends, patterns of mobility, new methods and new media continue to shift what it means to be at university. Previously, I was the Research Associate on the NERC, ESRC, and AHRC Global Challenges Research Fund sponsored GCRF Research for Emergency Aftershock Forecasting (REAR) project. I was an Assistant Professor at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (한국외국어대학교) in Seoul, Korea. I have also completed a doctorate at University College London (formerly the independent Institute of Education, University of London) on mobile learning in the humanities in Korea.
