gigglesugar (Free subscription) | 11/13/2008
This is what teen girls were swooning over back in '79. He's kinda like Rod Stewart, light. I will give the dude one thing, though: he had awesome hair.

in which wil clarifies something for artists and designers

Rather than just close it down, I thought I'd pose a question here: I'm sure there are lots of good designers and creative people who read my blog, so if I had a contest to design things like shirts and stickers and stuff, would anyone be interested in participating? ... I didn't think about it until after I read those comments, but I get the feeling that contest is a loaded term in the design community,...

the joys of weird audio
WWdN: In Exile (Free subscription) | 07/03/2008
Mostly, I chop these things up to make RFB Mixtapes , but from time to time, I put the folder on shuffle play, and enjoy a truly weird experience, including music from Telly Savalas, interviews with Burt Reynolds, strange commercials and PSAs, and tons and tons of 1950s and 1960s Hi-Fi muzak. Today, I shuffled the folder for background music while I prepared an audition, and stopped for a five surreal...

Steven Shearer, Activity Cell with Warlock Bass Guitar , 1997 Double Album: Daniel Guzmán + Steven Shearer New Museum April 24 What a drag, being forced to behold the basic, untransubstantiated stuff of semi-music-related pop-culture—Leif Garrett pinups, Sonic Youth cassette tapes, Kiss makeup, Stooges logos—in places that could do better, like the New Museum.

Let's admit I made a mistake, but can we still be friends?
Copy, Right? (Free subscription) | 04/23/2008
Welcome to my late-night/early-morning post inspired by the purchases I made earlier today (technically yesterday) for $1 or less at the used record store: Paul Young "Love Will Tear Us Apart" (Joy Division cover) I feel over the years I've divulged a lot of personal information about my past with music of a somewhat embarrassing nature.

TITAN EDITORIAL: Desperate stage moms
Daily Titan (Free subscription) | 04/21/2008
The smell of champagne wishes and caviar dreams is intoxicating. The swirling colors of the bright lights against the Hollywood hills are hypnotizing.
