Best initiates into the invisi-trope of 2011. Pre-apocalyptic praise for this year’s new crop… of the krautish, psych-like, drone-related, folk-induced, sludgy, drudgy, shellacked, brainfrozen, soothing, toothing.. and generally worthy of your attention…. Here are their releases from 2010… keep an eye out! MMOSS (Dover, New Hampshire) - i (Burger Records)...

symmetry
copied from the facebook: i encounter these most amazing ultimate ego destroyers. bashing in the ribcages of things i held onto too hard so that the hyper-reality of what i actually care about shines through after all like a filmed horizon, slightly shaky, hand-held, benign lifting-forwards, more-than ultimatums, sublime rebirth, onwards, standstills, pre-fabricated and pre-superlative malignant...

GHOST HUNTING AND PHONE TREES
In a duality, there is a mutual dependence upon one another to simply exist, so that a bond is not just a bond, but rather the threads which maintain two beings as one in a way which is productive and necessary. The third element that rises from this is transcendent and unique. The individualism that results from this kind of relationship is healthy and strong.
Binaries, on the other hand,...
FOLDED TIME: THOUGHTS ON GRIDS AS SYNTHESIZERS OF COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS, THE CURRENT STATE OF INFORMATION DISSEMINATION, THE GRID’S RETURN AS SIMULTANEOUS INFORMATION SYNTHESIZER/BACKLASH AGAINST DRONE OF INTERNET-AGE, GRID IN CONSTANT STATE OF CONTRADICTION TO ITSELF, COMFORT OF GRID’S CONTRADICTION AS OUR OWN SELVES DISSOLVE
Rosalind Krauss wrote that the grid “allows a...
Darn, Now I Get It
I am three times an earth sign (sun in Virgo, moon in Capricorn, Taurus rising). I knew there had to be a reason why there’s something about winter that bears down on me in a uniquely harsh way. Two more weeks of temporal misery and then I go down south. Yup, there I am, charted out in my all my coy and virginal glory.

the act of "emailing myself"
is strange, there’s nothing quite like it. It’s kind of like this one time when I tossed a bouncy rubber ball on the ground and it bounced up and hit me in the face, although I like emailing myself because it’s sort of like keeping a formless air-space diary that is process-based, floating.

Horrifyingly Ugly "Guitars for Girls"
I think it’s annoying when people use “Other” as a verb, but I gotta admit: the way they “Other” these guitars from the “Standard” list of desirable models is goofy as hell. They come in limited color selections, including easter pastels and metallic purples and pinks.
This is why I praise the heavens for guitars like Teiscos, which are not fancy by...

oh man.
Here i am at work, “raising funds for PBS” (which is to say: i’m not), sitting here online formulating an idea or two, when suddenly i hear a coworker in another room talking, and inadvertently providing the missing link—-I have to mention that the anonymity of this job is really strange; I hardly know anyone’s name or what they are interested in or where...
Here’s my ongoing recent fantasy about Alan Watts and Rosalind Krauss hanging out and having a really cool kid, as inspired by striking similarities I’m finding between Watts’ The Wisdom of Insecurity and Krauss’ Notes On the Index, pt. 1.
Watts: “You do not define this real, living ‘something’ by associating it with the noise man. When we say,...
