Hello readers of blog. I know you exist because the machinery tells me that people arrive here, perhaps looking for a limousine. Perhaps because feminism informs their research. Perhaps for a cheeky old door shutter. They arrive and curse their bad luck and move on. We are myriad Ellard, and I am the worst of [...]

Do…?
November 20th, 2008 · Comments Off · Uncategorized
Do journalists abuse questions? Do they make every article title some form of rhetorical question? Do they do this to create a ‘straw man’ to write about? Is this in fact a tactic to create news where there is no actual information? Do they then load the article with more questions thereby creating the illusion [...]

Quick, before the rolling pin…

Damnation, the wife came back from holidays a week early. Have to squeeze out this third and final bit of ‘radio’ before I get told to forever turn that noise down. Besides I was going to post the next music class but it was written so long ago that it was full of pictures of [...]
Garbage, second bag.
November 1st, 2008 · Comments Off · Uncategorized, Wednesday Night is Garbage Night
Another hour of garbage. Because I can. Scatman v.s. Nigel Simpkins, Magilla Gorilla, ‘today I’m walking my turtle’, The Great Snatch, psychic predictions for 1961. Plus other shit. As a small child I would like to voice my support for the forthcoming censorship of Australian internet access. Heavens knows I’m just wallowing every day in [...]

After a short break of two years, show four of WNIGN. (There’s no point rushing these things.) This episode: Alvin Lucier, Boris Karloff, Pancake Trees and Frogs. Stream it. I use Windows Media Audio because it sounds best. Please use VLC if nothing else works for you.

As predicted in the last newsletter, heavy upward movement on the HUSSEIN Obama Islamo Terrist!! value, following general trends ahead of the US Election, although much of the buying is coming from an aggressive bid by Bush Inc. subsidiary Palin Rape Kit LLC. We don’t see this trend having much legs past early November, and [...]

Spare me the fluffing
October 8th, 2008 · Comments Off · Uncategorized
Now I’m cross again. Look, people, people… honestly… I know there’s traditions that go with music appreciation. We recognise these and put up with them because it’s part of the sub culture. So in dance music every artist that manages to get the slightest recognition is always a ‘genius’. Their ‘phat beats’ are ‘soulful’ and [...]
Dry Drunk

The other night I was playing with a synthesiser called Morphine, which is additive and so fairly complex to program. You can individually adjust each overtone and theoretically achieve just about any noise you like. But you’ll soon find it easier to sample a sound and translate that into the raw sine waves that recreate [...]

Showtime!

A couple of people wondered what happened to the Showbag DVDs. Sorry, sometimes things stop dead waiting for a mysterious signal. It’s like a red light in the twilight zone. Once I performed the recent VJ sets, the green light went on and I finished the compilation. There’s been some technical problems as well. Anyway, [...]
