Honda Technology Uses Brain Waves to Control Bots Have tried to find some video footage of the demo online, but to no avail. If you have better luck, be sure to post links here, eh. There was also a cover story on a similar field of research in New Scientist the other week, namely the...

You can download it from iTunes too; which I guess means they're slowly getting with it...

Well, I guess one of the main mistakes that artists make when making an album is that they forget that a really great album is typically more than the some of its parts. I'm talking about the kinds of albums where the running order has been fully considered, which have a such a sense of pace...

The Hype Machine tracks a variety of MP3 blogs. If a post contains MP3 links, it adds those links to its database and displays them on the front page. Some of the frequently accessed tracks are cached by the Hype Machine server, much like Google Search caches web pages, to reduce load on the...

How about: the desire to make an album at all when the long play format is, in and of itself, increasingly irrelevant?

I rather suspect that all of these virtues will be undone by the sequels ;) It was fairly stylish, no doubt, but personally i couldn't find anything particularly substantial about it.

Yeah, I think heavy bass frequencies can induce labour, so be careful! As an update on my own progress with my own baby - we've read that foetuses and even new babies can't hear low frequencies in any real detail (tho they can, of course, feel them) so we've been playing more melodic stuff such...

Bit like the dolphins that went AWOL (both literally and figuartively, it seems) in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. I guess this has the added virtue of being reported in a reputable publication like New Scientist. And on a (marginally) lighter note, Grant Morrison & Frank Quitely did a great...

Sorry to drag this thread back out of the sludge; but I couldn't help thinking about it with the media being full of news about the US Government finally releasing supposedly unseen footage of the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon. Not sure how it differs from the footage they gave to CNN 3 years...

Foiled again. And I would have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for those darned kids.

Yeah, me too. But in the meantime, Kode 9's Dubstep Allstars mix is tiding me over quite nicely. Recommended, if you don't know it.

I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece...

So, apologies for dragging this topic back upthread. But I just saw this, and felt an urgent need to share. I honestly can't remember when I last saw a performance on mainstream telly with such chutzpah. Fucking great.

Got to be Gravity's Rainbow for me. I've started it approximately 4,317 times, and never managed to get more than about 150 pages in. I really love parts of it, but when he starts shifting perspective between all the people in the room within the same sentence, my fluffy little brain starts to...

... and if anyone knows of any recordings, be sure to post links here. Akufen rocks.

With Nathan Fake. Details here. Anyone else going?

I think it was a joke. Wasn't it...?!

So I was dicking around in the iTunes Music Store yesterday, and thought I'd have a listen to the rest of the album. Nothing immediately grabbed me, but I did notice that: "Listeners who liked this also bought: The Arctic Monkeys." LOL. So, yeah, maybe I'll give up some ground where the LP is...

I take it you've heard the whole thing then..? To be sure, Bodily Functions is the one to beat. But I rather get the impression he's going for a more mainstream success with this one (at least, as mainstream as he'll be allowed), so I'm not expecting comparisons between the two to stand up...
