plastikman

[inlink]paul,2850[/inlink]



I remember that PlastikMan album "Sheet One" featured a sheet of blotter paper decorated with little Plastikmen... What would you do with that? I wonder if that's why it's so hard to find copies these days?

Xbox Live

[inlink]scud,80[/inlink]



Hey (e:Scud) , I'm on Xbox Live every once in awhile. I don't play any sports games, but lately some Halo 2 and Mechassault 2... my gamertag is GamesFirst (like my website)

Look for me sometime, or drop an invite sometime -- I have the XBL forwarding on so I get invites to my cell phone. It's pretty much the hotness.

iTunes - DRM = PyMusique
Check this out, from BoingBoing ( )

Apparently PyMusique is a free program that allows you to download tunes from iTunes without the DRM (iTunes uses FairPlay, which is not supported on any platform except the iPod, which some people don't like *gasp*!)

Anyway, I suggest getting PyMusique for any new acquisitions. Or old ones -- apparently it will let you re-download all your tracks as regular old non-DRM files. woot! \0//

Booky Rocks Like M.I.A.
Oh, damn, (e:Paul), this is exactly the way I like to do it -- I come to (e:strip) to read other people's journals -- I always disliked how if I saw something I thought was cool or wanted to say something about while I was browsing around, it was so hard to open a new tab and go to (e:Strip) to post something about it...

Yeah, this feels great. You roXor my boXor (e:Paul).

So I just found this page ( ) at Rolling Stone about M.I.A. M.I.A. is a Sri-Lankan female rapper who bad ass. You can watch her vid for Sunshowers on the page I just linked to. You can download a Sri Lankan hip hop mix on this Bit Torrent link ( ) -- it's the Tsunami Terror Mix. Remember, Sri Lanka has been in civil war for ages now (what, like 10 years? 20?) and all of Arthur C. Clarke's mysterious investigations couldn't prevent some of the most tragic terrorist attacks in the world, perpetrated by the Tamil Tigers. ha, and 50 Cent (the Mumblefish as I like to call him, after the Matt Dillon movie) thought he was bad...

Anyway, everyone ( ) is writing about M.I.A. I saw her vid on MuchMusic when we escaped to Canada for the Inaugaration. Download her video for Sunshowers. One of the best new tracks this year, fo sho.

Rasterbator
[inlink]paul,2797[/inlink] (e:paul)

That image on Halavais' door looks like a Rasterbator ( ) print from here. Or it could just be a really huge print of a really large file that's been run through an ascii generator like this ( ).

Fun stuff...
