Sad to say, but in recent days I've actually been getting out-doors, instead of staying home and slowly etiolating in the dim light of my iMac. I attended easily the worst, most pitiful, most ill-conceived, worthless seminar ever. Supposedly some debate about the interface of art and science, it was just unmercifully wack. Shame on the Royal Institution. (Gabriel Coxhead's book is good though. Available now where-ever books are sold.) As a response to this awful lecture experience I've plunged into mindless socialising. Hence just a few prime links for ya:
Hottest kicks 2004? Laser Rift.
Rarest Beastie Boys record ever? "...an intended non-LP B-side called "The Scenario", a murder story that the group calls their best song, proved too graphic for CBS [Records]" - Creem, May 1987. It did appear in Pump The Volume, but was never "commercially released". Some-one pick this up for my birthday.
Pickled dragon.
Nice online Scrabble app. Sadly uses US dictionary only, not International Words. And as Kottke points out, Hasbro are kinda free with the cease and desist orders.
A whale explodes (and not for the first time.)
