The Idiots of Garry's Mod

Found another great example of using unconventional means to create a new media experience.
A group that calls themselves the Idiots of Garrr'y Mod


This group uses a program called Garry's Mod to create a hilarious movie of random clips and
jokes (generally ones understood by those who play the games). What's amazing is that this had never been the intention of Garry's Mod, which is meant to played as a sandbox style game, where you create your own levels and play with your friends on levels you've made.

But after it was released several people used it to create hilarious screenshots and joke movies. The Idiots so far are the most popular. It's amazing that systems like this unknowingly can create a sort of "Make You Own 3D Movie" program when used with the right media programs. I honestly think it's hilarious and quite creative.
