1. [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

    A friend recently sent me this. It’s a recording of my band from ~10 years ago, You Almighty. We took our name from a passage in a Church Of The SubGenius book. I was set to be completely, witheringly embarrassed to hear this, but I think it has some redeeming qualities. Well, if you ignore how bad I was singing, and how bad I was playing the guitar. I mean, we weren’t exactly tight, but it was fun.

  3. I have posted this before. I’m posting it again, because it’s Pynchon In Public day. #Pynchon2012

    All night, out in the great fjord, they heard the ice, they woke, they dozed again, the voices of the ice entered their dreams, dictated what they would see, what would happen to each dreaming eye as, helpless, it gazed.

    -Thomas Pynchon, from Against The Day

“I’ve seen other ads from the ’70s and ’80s, particularly for Tonka trucks, that show girls like this–in clothes that look like they’re actually made for playing instead of making a fashion statement, and playing with toys in the same way boys would, even if it means getting dirty (gasp!). When we see ads that always show girls in pink, playing with “girl” versions of toys, or engaged in passive activities, that’s a particular marketing choice, not some inevitable, obvious way girls need to be depicted to sell products.”

The Record will be on view at the Miami Art Museum from March 18 – June 10. This might be your last opportunity to see this phenomenal show, curated by Trevor Schoonmaker of the Nasher Museum of Art. Molly Renda and I designed the catalog, pictured above. If you are a lover of art and vinyl, you must have it! See next post for the list of contributors and artists.

This was indeed a fantastic show. Go see it, Floridians!
