Building the Dream Weapon
Been fantasizing about "superdrums" ever since the SWANS show a few weeks back. Distorted, pulsating, sinister, and formless, with no beginning and no end.
Like an endless riff on the midsection here
Ironically, this appeared right in front of my house the day after I picked up my new drum machine.

What Does Anything Mean? Basically
A few words that have crossed my path lately, all simultaneously positive/negative, romantic/depressing, thrilling/mundane.
Voluptuary - a person whose life is given over to luxury and sensual pleasures; a sensualist
Wistful - pensively sad or melancholy OR full of wishful yearning (I strongly prefer the latter)
Anachronistic - one that is out of its proper or chronological order, especially a person or practice that belongs to an earlier time
Birth
Been working through the NEO CONS record layout for the past month or so, and I'm happy to report that it's finally complete and in my hands. Some things I have learned:
1) Expressing a concept through images is really challenging, especially for someone like me who deals in words. But it can also be a rewarding exercise because it forces you to relinquish control over language and replace it with something that speaks for itself.
2) Embrace the process! Not just the result.
3) I'm surrounded by some infinitely creative people who helped me work these ideas out, both in my head and on paper. THANKS

Meet Your Maker
It seems retro soundtracks are a (the?) big thing now; yet another product of popular culture's quest to regurgitate everything cool over the last 40 years. Though Umberto is fucking shameless and Solar Bears sometimes reeks of stale Air, I'm convinced that if the right music people hook up with the right film people, it could spell awesome new frontiers in the amalgam of sight and sound.
