YouTube Video of the Day: Jack Johnson - The Horizon Has Been Defeated August 13, 2007
Posted by ~V~ in : Video, Sounds, YouTube Video of the Day , add a commentThe horizon has been defeated
by the pirates of the new age.
Future complications
in the strings between the cans.
But no prints can come from fingers
if machines become our hands…

Will the real Jack Johnson please stand up?

Song of the Day: Elliott Smith - Junk Bond Trader August 6, 2007
Posted by ~V~ in : Images, Sounds, Song of the Day , add a commentbecause if silence is golden,
then music must be made of diamonds

The imitation picks you up like a habit;
writing in the glow of the TV’s static.
Taking out the trash to the man —
give the people something they understand.
Now i’m a policeman directing traffic;
keeping everything moving, everything static.
i’m the hitchhiker you’ll recognize passing
on your way to some everlasting —
Better sell it while you can…
Elliott Smith - Junk Bond Trader (5.6MB mp3)
from the album Figure 8

. In the same way that poetry
. distills layers of emotion
. and meaning in a few lines,
. I developed a passion for
. condensing my fascination
. for the visual world into a few
. intensely meaningful marks.
. By simplifying the figure, using
. as little information as possible,
. and discarding excessive detail,
. what remained were the
. essential shapes depicting
truth in the form of abstraction.
