Music: Blackmoth Super Rainbow Print Email


Blackmoth Super Rainbow's Dandelion Gum is a synth-crazed masterpiece.

Imagine a mist of synth lines descending to arppegiate and coating you in friendly warmth and you would be close to the experience of this album. The tracks are slow and lush, bombarding you with great sound textures and vocorders that are soothing and not annoying.

All of my software coding friends aggree that this album is high on their list to listen to while programming. It's unobtrusive, uplifting, and feels like a luxiourious sound fabric is being pulled past your ears.

Who would like this album: Synth Lovers.

Who would hate this album: People tired of vocorders no matter what.

Craft: Abernathy the Unicorn Print Email



SkunkboyCreature makes the handmade animal doll equivalent of creative street graf. I really love this unicorn. Look at the eye-pop. Look at the hair. Look at the neck stitching. Beautiful. We live in a beautiful world.

Comic: Hepcat Print Email


This is one of a series of doodles I did while uninstalling, rebooting, reinstalling, and repeating for some work-related software that doesn't always take the first five times you install it. There is some voodoo command line instructions that never come with instructions, so they don't work whenever a new version come out. At least I got these doodles out of that deal.

Other People's Comics: NSFW _Awesome_ Print Email



This is an amazing comic strip that plays with the form. It toys with perspective, continuity, plot, and expresses the multiplicity of relationships. It is _amazing_. It puts American comic artists (myself included) to shame. Take that Jack Kirby!. (Did I mention it's NSFW?)

Web: Cosby Sweaters Print Email



Nowpublic.net has an article on Cosby Sweater Day, and they've asked to use photos from our photostream.

It turns out that Bilbo is auctioning some of his sweaters. Considering the man only has one chest, it seems like the right thing to do. Objectivists would argue otherwise.

Music: Black Devil Disco Club Print Email


Black Devil Disco Club's 28 After is a pleasant romp through late 70s style synths in 90s style extended dance floor tracks.

If you're tired of acid music produced by TB303's may I offer you one final entry to squeeze into the crowded genre. The textures are milky and organic, producing a pleasant alternative to the abrasive screetch of the instrument. Imagine being in a dark smoky dance pod, isolated from the world and allowed to dance with your mind, and you would see the ideal setting for this album.

The music leans towards disco house, with strange hauntings of Krautrock misting through the verses.

Who would like this album: House fans who are looking for texture.

Who would hate this album: People who need jumpy, intense music.
