For a change of pace today, links to three short videos that relate in at least a peripheral way to presence:

1. Aimee Mann’s video for “Charmer” (4:06) featuring actress Laura Linney as a robot doppelganger (for more see NPR’s All Songs Considered blog).

2. Actress Kristin Bell featured on Jimmy Kimmel Live in a mock ad for MoMi on the iPhone 5 (2:10).

3. The well-known Simpsons theme recreated with ‘real life’ actors (1:00).
