my 100th blog entry!

why not celebrate with cool stuff!?

1.

2. SFMOMA exhibit of Ann Hamiton’s indigo blue, an interesting commentary on class and economy. go to the link and click, “start program” and watch the three videos of installation inception and intention.

3. strange creatures found in antarctic waters.

4.  fm3 buddha machine.  asmall plastic machine producing ambient noises by toggle switching.  mine is orange!

5.  the journal of popular noise.  this is a journal of sound, of noise. each issue is a 45rpm record. and it looks like this:

i haven’t had a chance to listen to mine yet, because my 45 insert is too small (weird?) and i have to get new ones. but i am sure it will rock my noise loving world!

6.  installations at cca, specifically MINE! i did/am doing a nature simulation installation in the studio. right now it’s just a 3d sketch of something i hope to expand later…some how. pictures forth coming.  idea is cooler than product right now.

7.  my pals catherine, dene, joanna, and robert for taking me out in SF last night and for filling me with jack n gingers and intelligent, funny company! xo! pictures forthcoming?

we, as a world, are really fucking up.

so, i am in a climate in literature class as CCA. we read about climate in politics, in media, and in literature. we freak out about what will happen to the earth, question science, republicans, and michael crichton. we send each other articles, videos, and book recommendations. recently, one of my classmates sent me this video called the story of stuff. it shows us how we are fucking up the earth by manufacturing obscene amounts of stuff, which we just pile under ground anyways. here is a sample of the video, but go to the site www.storyofstuff.com to see it in its entirety.
