i like the first post on this thread
i like noodle vague a lot—guy’s a deep thinker, in the best sense of the word.
i like dudes who are still zingy even after they have kids
he is probably the best british poster
i really don’t know anything about noodle vague at all! i know that he has been posting for awhile, but he has been completely off my radar otherwise somehow.
also, “ttys” takes just as long to say as “talk to you soon” does. same number of syllables.
exactly! that’s why i thought it was so stupid.
oh jergz: i bought that tee fury t-shirt, thanks to your link! <3

There’s a building somewhere in New York City: every time you go there – maybe it’s a bank or a department store or the office where you work – you hear what sounds like air-conditioning equipment, a distant droning noise in the background that you can’t quite place.
But it’s always there – maybe sometimes higher pitched than other days, but always audible.
One day, though, you happen to be there with some friends and you’ve got a videocamera. You’re filming each other goofing off, playing in the stairwells, and so on – but when you get back home and begin to watch the video you realize it’s actually quite boring. Making faces at a camera is not as interesting as you’d hoped it’d be.
So – overlooking the fact that this would not actually be possible – you begin to fast-forward the video at 4x speed, then 8x, then 16x, then 32x – and you realize, with a collective gasp, that that droning sound in the background is not a drone at all but a piece of music played slow to the point of unrecognizability. It’s Beethoven, say, or Jimi Hendrix.
Someone is playing incredibly slow music, like a kind of acoustic glacier, inside the building. It’s avant-garde Muzak.
You go a little crazy upon discovering this, however, and begin to make field recordings all over Manhattan, recording drones. You stand in alleys, beneath trees in Central Park, and inside abandoned warehouses, capturing ambient background sounds on tape. You visit the airport, deliberately seek out traffic jams, and illegally access basements on the Upper East Side.
And for the next six months you sit and listen to all of them at 32x speed – 64x speed, 128x speed – convinced that this world has strange music embedded in it somewhere and, if only you use your equipment right, you can find it.
how about a flying car!
why not
Don’t worry if the melody becomes random, that’s intentional, yeah. Even if the melody looses its connection to the rhythm, there is nothing wrong with it. Even if you loose the touch with reality while you’re listening, there’s nothing wrong there too, because this music is made to put you in some abstract worlds....The only thing that you should worry about is actually not to listen to this stuff too much, realising in the end it may not be of much help if you want to increase your mental awareness of the real world wink.gif.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb:
Scepticism is effortful and costly. It is better to be sceptical about matters of large consequences, and be imperfect, foolish and human in the small and the aesthetic.
aesthetic matters are matters of large consequence

A Boston police officer is being investigated for allegedly helping two gay porn stars cut through traffic to get to a nightclub. Police said the officer, whose name has not been released, has been placed on desk duty for allegedly using his cruiser to escort a car from Logan International Airport to the Roxy nightclub last October.
