In Ticketing increases options for venues and promoters, as long as they're using iOS
Converting a cellphone into a credit card reader is nothing new, but transforming one into a box office for live events could shake things up a bit -- or, at least provide a bit of friendly competition for NFC-based alternatives. In Ticketing has just launched InHand Box Office software for use at live events. The company claims to be one of the greener ticketing outfits out there, and plans to turn your iPhone or iPod touch into a device capable of wirelessly processing payments (and printing out paper receipts, unlike Square or PayPal Here) at independently run concerts or festivals. Potentially reducing time spent in line and preventing congestion at the entrance translates into more people inside the venue, and using your phone instead of a difficult-to-establish credit card merchant account should reduce the friction in throwing such an event. As long as you tend to carry the appropriate iDevice with In Ticketing's new app installed, you can marry it to that iAPS Sled you see above to create your own personal CC processing machine. The only issues? Convincing Gotye to play your house party instead of Coachella next year, and that awkward lack of support for Android, BlackBerry and Windows Phone.

Wallpaper. Drops Best Video 'Everrr,' Because He Can
'I was trying to spend as much of the label's money as possible,' he tells MTV News of new live-action clip for 'F---ing Best Song Everrr.'
By James Montgomery
You're probably wondering why Bay Area party-meister Wallpaper. decided it was time to make a live-action video for his breakout track "F---ing Best Song Everrr," especially since the animated version has already racked up millions of views.
Well, it's pretty simple, actually: Because he wanted to.
"Why make a live-action video after the cartoon video was so dope?" he asked rhetorically. "The bottom line is, I was trying to spend as much of the label's money as possible."
So, budgets be damned, on Thursday (April 26), we finally got the world premiere of said live-action clip, an avant-garde exploration of man's deepest desires, a willfully difficult dissertation on the battle between the moralism of the super ego and the hedonism of the id.
Not really.
Actually, it's mostly about people getting sh--faced and vomiting confetti. Margaritas are also served.
And that's basically what the self-proclaimed "virtual-media hustler and disco-ball-busting crowd destroyer" was looking for. After all, even though his song may come with a rather braggadocious title, it's really about those moments of reckless abandon when the song you're listening to takes on epic proportions and you lose yourself in the moment. Maybe margaritas have been served, and perhaps you actually will throw up some glitter.
"The song isn't necessarily the best song ever," he explained. "It's about having the kind of night or the kind of moment where any record feels like the best song ever."
And love him or hate him, you've got to give Wallpaper. some credit: It takes genuine smarts to create a track (and video) like "F---ing Best Song Everrr," which delights in getting supremely, sublimely stoopid.
What do you think of the Wallpaper. video? Share your reviews in the comments!

Mila Kunis Teases New Short Film With James Franco
'I will not talk about it until it is shown, because it might beat 'The Hills,' ' she tells MTV News of previous Funny or Die collaboration.

Despite the fact that the stars of Sam Raimi's buzz-worthy upcoming movie "Oz: The Great and Powerful" aren't allowed to offer up any specifics about their involvement in the film, we've managed to glean a few positive yet mysterious comments here and there.
Such was the case during a recent run-in with the lovely and talented Mila Kunis at CinemaCon, where we learned a little more about her character's motivations, as well as some teasers about a short-film project Kunis made with her co-star James Franco that she promised will be better than their Funny or Die parody of "The Hills."
"Sam Raimi [directed the movie]. What else do you need?" Kunis said when asked what else fans should know about the return to Oz. "[Also] James Franco, Michelle Williams, Rachel Weisz," she added. "That's all you need."
And what about her character, Theodora? Is she good and then evil? A nice blend? Who is she?
"She's a good person who gets her heart broken," Kunis said. "What happens to young ladies when their heart gets broken?"
Josh Horowitz answered that they turn into horrible evil witches. "You said it, not me," Kunis said with a smile.
We then brought up her re-teaming with Franco and asked whether they had any downtime during "Oz" to shoot another brilliant short film, à la their "Hills" parody.
"In the process, James and I had another collaboration that may or may not ever see the light of day. That was one of the many shorts that James shoots. That might go down in history as my favorite," Kunis revealed. "I will not talk about it until it is shown, because that it beat 'The Hills.' It's a whole other short that we shot. It was one of the more fun experiences one could ever have."
Although Kunis claimed she could not reveal any more details, we asked her to at least tell us what genre the short falls into and offered up horror as a possible category.
"Horror? Horror," Kunis answered. "It wasn't dirty," Kunis added. "In case you're going in that direction."
Check out everything we've got on "Oz: The Great and Powerful."
