note it

I highly recommend checking out ABC’s
"the note"
for more than decent political commentary every day.
Today’s (well, yesterday’s, but I am in a different time zone) discussion was
about needing a "War Room" to gain speed in public opinion polls – thus
The Blair Bush Project of "Cowboys and Indians." Wish
the opposite were true… Peace Rooms anyone? In other news, I love the internet!
Yes, even as a digital art geek, I can’t help but be awed by it’s power at times
– I guess that’s why I’m a digital art geek… Today, I used ICQ
to do two-way SMS’s with friends in Berlin and (a little closer to my home in
Johannesburg) Cape Town. Also sent flowers to my sister in Florida without too
much hassle, due to be delivered in only two days, from all the way around the
globe. Ah, modern technology.

mia.net

I just realized that it is nowhere mentioned on my site that mia.net
is my hosting service, which was recommended to me by my buddy josh.
In his words, "Jeremy Kinsey deserves all of your money." But the reason
Jeremy deserves it is that he does not take it all away! Minor issues with my last payment
were resolved in minutes, so I totally recommend working with him if you need
hosting. He will work around your needs, etc.
No, he did not pay me or give me any discounts to say that.
In other news, I heard from the dreamy, brilliant and creative David
Schwarz
recently. He’s the author of this
book,
which explores music from Wagner to The Beatles and German Oi from a
contemporary psychoanalytical perspective, and music/sound’s relation to "the
subject." He told me about some more interesting research he is doing, and
I recommend keeping an eye out for his work. David also makes some beautiful digital,
and digitally inspired, musical instruments, and is beginning to move into performance
with them. Not to mention, he is a total sweetie :)
This is the end of the promotional section of my blog.
