What do you get when you combine the largest student dorm in Finland, a cellphone, and a love of Tetris? Something that's way cooler than the Russian monochrome equivalent. Video after the jump.

So much in love with shiny new toys, it's unnatural.

Cool, but the guy shooting the video should be beaten to death with a hammer.
Man, why bother doing this if you're no good at Tetris?
Awesome. Simply awesome.
You'd think for all that effort, though, they'd be good at Tetris.
@Atelier: more like the guy who was playing, how the hell do you screw that up.
Ironically he is one of the worst Tetris players I've ever seen. (video 2)
I live in the projects, and it plays Doom.
That's what I'd call a job well done.
But, the Tetris player isn't that skilled at the game, nor is the videographer at taping the event.
worst tetris player ever.
How hard is it to hold the f*cking video camera still?
@Kaiser-Machead: Yeah but when you die, you don't get to try again.
@AdmNaismith: He says the camera's attached to his head, so it moves every time he looks around.
@RomeIsRising: why is it attached to his head he is stupid. what a waste of effort and money that is, and annoying too for people living there.
i love how it randomly says SOON at the very end. hilarious.
Quite possibly one of the coolest things ever....
Open source for home version??? =D
@faust1200: Because that is a video of him debugging it. When you debug something you have to do the crazy unlikely things just to make sure.
I think the camera moves because of speeding up the footage. At one point in the video you can see a person moving at a very fast pace. is this actual programming and wiring, or a replicate of the russian dorm tetris...?
He's the worst tetris player because HE'S DOING IT ON PURPOSE!
What they're trying to avoid is a whole complete block row which they accomplished on a few lines on the first video.
See. Blocks don't clear off.
The problem what we were debugging was some of the pixels thinking they were in some other place in the matrix.
The video is running at actual speed but as stated in the first video it is head-mounted camera and I am not even trying to keep my head still for the video. The video is just a by-product of debugging and produced with almost zero effort.
