    Anarchism

    Heredity is certainly not always the primary method of societal organisation, even in small-scale societies. I'll see if I can find some interesting kinship diagrams and post them up.

    The following two are pretty good as well, particularly for techno... http://www.electrobounce.com/ http://electrofunk.com/main/catalog/index.php

    Digital Radio

    I don't think it's technically feasible to jam most of the FM bandwidth. When you hear talk of 'FM switch-off', what is meant is that the station will be switched over to digital technology, rather than somehow eliminating the band from existence. You'll be technically able to broadcast on some...

    Library Music

    I have the feeling that, from a collector's point of view, educational/public service recordings do get lumped in with library music. It's sort of appropriate, considering that they often have similar aesthetics and were often made by the same people, in the same studios. It'd be good if...

    Midi controllers

    Watchmen

    Yeah, fair enough. I guess I just wanted to point out that the puppeteer plays a pretty important role in all of Moore's work (or so it seems to me). While I think that Alan Moore has come as close as anyone to realising the idea of the graphic novel, there's still things that word-novels can...

    Watchmen

    What's wrong with trying to impress the audience? That desire to impress, the 'betcha can't do this' nature of a lot of Alan Moore's work is what makes it great. Y'know, panache! And the other thing about Alan Moore is that he's not all that concerned with what you (the reader) want. If he...
