try and stop me
I’ve still got fifteen minutes left in this composition but I simply had to post this because it literally blew my mind. William Basinski has made his audio career out of experimenting with tape loops to create a vast array of melancholy dreamscapes. This particular piece was assembled with old analogue reel-to-reel tapes from the [...]
Space Cheese
Tonight I dug into my album collection to find something I haven’t heard in a long time. Some of you may be familiar with Digital Hardcore’s flagship band Atari Teenage Riot. Well Nic Endo, one of ATR’s members, has a rarely active side project known as She-Satellites, and in 1998 she put out a disc [...]
ceci n’est pas une pizza
I had a pizza delivered earlier tonight from Australia. Seriously. Well sort of.
Tron, out of the kindness of his heart, paid for my classic pepperoni pizza. Originally the plan was he would order it online, input my coordinates, and I would receive a hot tasty meal within thirty minutes. After a bit of speculation regarding [...]

Personally I wouldn’t go so far as [...]
abandon ship
Well I tried, I really tried. Quake 4 mapping is a no go on this machine. I spent numerous evenings hammering away at the editor, managing to create very decent brushwork but unfortunately the texture issue was more than I was prepared to deal with. As I’ve mentioned before, all my textures are applying at [...]
comfortable sounds
I just received a copy of the tokyo sessions by ascii disko in the mail today from Triage Industries. It’s composed of two individually cased three inch carbon mini compact discs packed in an aweseome hand assembled black cardboard box. In short the packaging is wonderfully unique and pleasing. Inside was a card stating that [...]
she’s a fine vessel
Since I don’t really have anything truly remarkable to update with at this juncture yet would like to post something, I’ve decided to ramble on a little bit about the Pirates Collectible Strategy Game. The title really says it all, if you like any of the words listed you’re a likely candidate to enjoy it. [...]
