I know I just said blogging here is at a freeze, but the world conspires against my plans. Firstly, Wired Mag just wrote a peice saying the personal blog is dead and out dated, so kill your blog. Nothing motivates me more to doing something then others saying it is "uncool and dead". Two, ScribeFire works again so I can blog pages I find without having to enter a editor. Lastly, I need a place to keep track of the things I am interested in. Really, actually lastly (For Reals, as the kids say), I am going to work on posting wonderous life positive things and art. No fucking news or politics ever again. I am going to try to link only to individual personal sites as well.
This is an investigation into elongating the time experienced by viewing an image. Rather than capture a single moment in time, the images exist at different points in time. The difference between the representation and perception of these moments creates a speed in which a viewer engages themselves. The photographs, lines, and dioramas inspect such productive effects of representation.
Posting here is at a Freeze.
Have not been posting here due to other more pressing issues, such as, well, the End of the World. So go listen to REM and have fun watching the whole shit house burn down.
"That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn, world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs. Feed it off an aux speak,, grunt, no, strength, The ladder starts to clatter with fear fight down height. Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site. Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped. Look at that low playing! Fine, then. Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and the revered and the right - right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.
It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.
Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign towers. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn. Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down. Watch your heel crush, crushed. Uh-oh, this means no fear cavalier. Renegade steer clear! A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.
It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone) It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine. (I feel fine)

The other night I dreamt of knives, continental drift divide. Mountains sit in a line Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev. Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs. Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.

Updates and such
Howdy all, working on getting back into the swing of things up here after the move. Much more relaxed and less tense. It's a very nice and much needed change of pace! All sorts of things on the plate here and I will probably start writing more about the projects here in house. Maybe starting with a break down of my last promo piece.
Thank fucking god

Remember 'go outside and play?'
Reader, if you're much over 30, you probably remember what it used to be like for the typical American kid. Remember how there used to be this thing called "going out to play"? For younger readers, I'll explain this archaic concept. It worked like this: The child or children in the house -- as long as they were over age 4 or so -- went to the door, opened it, and ... went outside. <A href="http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-brooks15-2008may15,0,3678233.column">They braved the neighborhood pedophile just waiting to pounce, the rusty nails just waiting to be stepped on, the trees just waiting to be fallen out of, and they "played."</a>

Pandora
Pandora Radio - Listen to Free Internet Radio, Find New Music
At Pandora, we have a single mission: To play music you'll love - and nothing else.To understand just how we do this, and why we think we do it really, really well, you need to know about the Music Genome Project®.
Since we started back in 2000, we have been hard at work on the Music Genome Project. It's the most comprehensive analysis of music ever undertaken. Together our team of fifty musician-analysts has been listening to music, one song at a time, studying and collecting literally hundreds of musical details on every song. It takes 20-30 minutes per song to capture all of the little details that give each recording its magical sound - melody, harmony, instrumentation, rhythm, vocals, lyrics ... and more - close to 400 attributes! We continue this work every day to keep up with the incredible flow of great new music coming from studios, stadiums and garages around the country.
With Pandora you can explore this vast trove of music to your heart's content. Just drop the name of one of your favorite songs or artists into Pandora and let the Genome Project go. It will quickly scan its entire world of analyzed music, almost a century of popular recordings - new and old, well known and completely obscure - to find songs with interesting musical similarities to your choice. Then sit back and enjoy as it creates a listening experience full of current and soon-to-be favorite songs for you.
You can create as many "stations" as you want. And you can even refine them. If it's not quite right you can tell it so and it will get better for you.
The Music Genome Project was founded by musicians and music-lovers. We believe in the value of music and have a profound respect for those who create it. We like all kinds of music, from the most obtuse bebop, to the most tripped-out drum n bass, to the simplest catchy pop tune. Our mission is to help you connect with the music YOU like.
I may be late to the party on this, but man, it's pretty freaking awesome. I'm danklife on it of course.
Thanks Steve!
