    Dizzee & Band Aid

    it looked like a PR event. surely they could have done it much better - bringing on Boris Johnson and John Lydon - more personalities instead of anodyne chart fluff. I've not heard the track but I was swept up in original BandAid when it happened. I was kinda hoping this might be good, let's...

    never seen rupture live, surely this'd be an occassion. Er.. doesn't Theo Parrish play Plastic people every few months. Also... has any one checked Fabric's Mayer residency. Is it worth a look?

    Can computer games be art?

    yes, i'd say computer games are art. but you have to do the work. I love exploring finding desolate places in games, or just wandering. I loathe killing, or being killed, but i can be completely transported by a game. I get lost, i forget about myself, I become the chatacter. take from it what...

    what did you listen to today?

    listening to the radio for the past three days, (my hard-drives are dead) so it's been static, news from the US, classical, snatches of soul, dreary ol' rawk, but I've enjoyed all the raw garage. sorted some speakers/amp now and I've listened to the Wu-Tang Hits album, diggin Janet Jackson -...

    things you have noticed.

    there's much badness about. i heard my neighbour being assaulted and stabbed, I shouted and called the police. he staggered out into the street: naked, bleeding, screaming. his assailants saw me. it's a very bad scene. it happened about a month ago. things haven't been the same since.

    dreams - they're weird, innit?

    yes, I don't like to know what dreams mean. there was a time a few years back when I'd write them down as soon as I woke up, or even in the dark with my eyes closed but then the scenes would start turning up in my writing, or paralleled in real life. had to stop because I couldn't be sure if I...

    This years The Books/Animal Collective/Junior Boys?

    he's no breakthrough act but people should check out a track called Oxygen by Wi11y Ma5on, the album's quite strong too. I haven't heard a recorded version that matches his live performance. To sound like dylan and unplugged Kobain without coming across as pretentious is quite a feat. That said...

    k punk, why k?

    Again, these are personal associations. K is onomatopoeic, it kicks, it's an action, perhaps knee-jerk, but that's only natural. It's unlike any other letter. The symbol is heading off in several direction at once, which mirrors my own thought processes (..bah..) and at times I've perceived it...

    erik davis event

    I'll certainly be there. I enjoyed a brief correspondence with davies in the 90s, he gave me some of the 'key' ideas for my dissertation, I popped down to the London talks after Techgnosis and gave him some compilation tapes. Has he written much off-line or given any talks since then?
