New (free) Music: Andres Subercaseaux

Andres Subercaseaux is a composer and sound designer from Santiago, Chile who makes warm electronic music that swings from bubbly vocoders to sweaty 70s rock guitars and back again. It’s rare to hear someone who can make breathless urgency work as well as self-aware dancefloor kitsch, but Subercaseaux feels at home on both ends of […]

First Layout!

Sandi went to bed sometime around 9am this morning to finish coding this, our first layout.
Applause for Sandi!
(clap clap clap clap)
Anyway, it’s infinitely cool of you to be reading us already when we barely have a finished site. This should be the start of the “real” blog, where we post stuff all the time, have […]

Corbu takes the internet

My band is called Corbu, and as of last night we have a pretty, functional Myspace page with a mini-website to match.

Adam Stennett

I saw Adam Stennett’s stuff on a friend’s Myspace page awhile back, but I had no idea that they were oil paintings.
Anybody who does oil paintings of bikini models drinking Robitussin is okay by me.

I could stand there in a Speedo and still be looked at like a f***in’ hero

Kanye West is one of the greatest human beings currently on this planet, in my opinion. He writes giant string parts for orchestras on his tracks, gets all over the radio and MTV without compromising anything, quotes Warhol in interviews and keeps a feverishly-updated design blog.
Now he’s got a book coming out called Thank You […]

Instructables: How to do a movie decapitation

“JERRY NO! NO JERRY! AHHH!”

DeviantART

Songerize: childlike simplicity

Songerize is my new favorite toy on the internet. I say that because it actually feels like a toy.
It’s like an internet jukebox that really works - everything from Camera Obscura to Brian Eno came up in seconds. But the best part is the rubbery, Speak and Spell-looking interface, which is just this:

Oh, bama.

We endorse Barack Obama, for the record, and we’re getting fed up with all this “delegates” crap.
On the Democratic side, Barack Obama was winning more states, but Clinton was winning the states with higher delegate counts.
Clinton was also projected to win her home state of New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts, and the larger share […]
