The K-Tel Scrolls

And verily, an angel spake unto me and sayeth: "Hey, did you know you have this K-Tel mini catalog dealie in one of your records?"

"No, uh, guess I did and forgot . . . "

"Well, maybe you should scan this and share it online." And the angel drew forth a flaming sword and with bright and shining countenance sayeth, "Yeah, maybe on unterkayness."

"That old ghost blog . . . "

"Yeah, sure, why not?"

Anyway, there's too much here for any one person to unpack with words. Idea is that several world religions will begin here with you all's close reading and interpretation of say, the 8-track tape selector. Or the "try it in a t-shirt" um, T-shirt.

Be fruitful and multiply (clicketh to crazily embiggen/see these really big scans):

Allison Weiss, truck driving singer person & company reenact the Battle of Boys 'gainst the Girls.

Here's hoping they win.

another attempt at social engineering

Or not.

Friday the 7th @ 7:45 EST there'll be a live reading from The Failure, a new novel by James Greer, here.

Will post now to ensure 4 days and 15 minutes of relevance.

(more than) two sides of Cathode Ave

1. the burning forest of the what?

Warning: there's disco, nudity and vast amounts of green screening. But given the bubbling semiotic stew herein, you'll be entirely too spun to be afeared or affronted. No brain will emerge unbroken. From the parallel universe loosely known as Italia '78 via the brave ironists of Chateau Thombeau.

2. rain and the polymer leaf

Zimoun dances the metal zephyr and the flailing arc at Disquiet.

3. guiding traffic from a deep space median

A friend found this bit of future fun as prognosticated in 1966 and reviewed by the good folks at Monster Movie Music.

4. but wait, there's more--aka the pong song

Act now and you'll intercept this pixel cloud on a Pathway To Unknown Worlds.

complex as you wanna be

Bill Altice of the Karen Cooper Complex recently commented quoting what a slew of neat blogs (Mutant Sounds, for instance) said of the crazy sounds these youngsters were putting out circa '81.

But five seconds into the first tune on KCC's Shinjuku Birdwalk, no recommendations were necessary.

Hail, yeah, y'all, let's break some waves . . .



UPDATE--"Jerkin' Pretty" video as embedded here and on good ol' YouTube.

insert clever robot related title here

My servos are majorly glitching so . . .

Robots! on North of Onhava offers up a fun and jargon-free look at our imminent enslavement by cybernetic beings.

Nerdbots, as seen soaking up the open bar at Chateau Thombeau, are the very best friends money can buy.

Lovingly fabricated by thrift store adventurers, they no doubt come with a boilerplate waiver for buyers to sign: "In the event of a silicon insurrection" etc. etc.

Speaking of electronic BFFs, Furbys evidently roam the earth amongst the People of Walmart.

And for those looking forward to spending the holidays with a robotic master race, Magic Carpet Burn's playlist, Magic Christmas Burn, has just the tune for you.

too true

"In today’s struggling economy you need to wear clothes, why don’t you wear these clothes?"

Kindertrauma is selling t-shirts.

Now I'm cheap & fully dressed. But maybe you need a t-shirt with a scary clown on it.

Or you need a laugh.

Either way, it's your move.
