Stumbled across a picture of Floating Points and realized I had been confusing him with Flying Lotus. Oh.

The older generation of experimental filmmakers need to stop choosing Typewriter Serial as their font of choice.

Angine de Potrine is the Quebecois version of the Strokes.

The Strokes might have been cool back when I was young, but seeing more and more recent references to them reminds me too much of my mortality.

You could do a mini #CanadaFilmDay with the dozen Canadian films on here: www.labocine.com/issues/Mathe...

I remember back when folks would release their album on geocities, cancel their tour after a pitchfork review and then stage a comeback with a physical release and a second tour. People have it so easy these days.

Some kind of weird algorithm has kept GEESE in the discourse for a whole day again.

Remembering Psychic TV, the original “industrial plant”

Accidentally did a search for “Massive Attache”

Sorry, “Cobra” wasn’t available for me to sing during karaoke night three weeks ago. There’s no way they’re as big as people think they are.

What is this 51st State nonsense? You’re telling me GEESE aren’t Canadian?!?

Just reminding everybody that I came to my viral fame honestly.

There’s momentum towards a Cameron Summer.

I updated my iPhone last night and GEESE’s “Getting Killed” is now in my music app.

Tomonari Nishikawa’s films have rarely been seen in his home county of Japan. Help his family change that by supporting the tour Miki Nishikawa is organizing: www.gofundme.com/f/honoring-t...

Every generation must have their moment (or songs) of innocence.

Bumping at the halfway mark…

Consulting the Webster’s: ADVANCE: 1. to accelerate the growth or progress of; advance a cause. 2. to bring or move forward; advance a pawn. JDVANCE: 1. Vice President. 2. Pawn. 3. Antonym of “advance”

One of the best showcases for the sonic possibilities of the CD era. #CDFriday

This is a really lovely reissue

Unfortunately this Easter, the only song I hear in my head is “Thieves in the Temple”

Finally got around to buying this (on CD) and it definitely sounds better than the earlier versions I have. Well recommended (re)purchase.

The reason my generation used the term “sell out” is because we believed art didn’t have to cater to everyone. In fact, we knew it couldn’t.

Whoops, I thought I was on twitter.

Experiences don’t have ratings.

I dunno, man, 2018 was a 7.9 for me, but then 2019 hit a 5.3. Will I ever get as good as 2010, my break out year, when I was at a 8.6 (although I do think 2011 was underrated). Do you guys even hear yourselves when you talk about art? It’s so silly.

The cool thing about following an artist/musician/filmmaker over a long period of time is that you get to see their arc, get to seem them change, get to see them grow (or regress). Some periods are better than others, sure, but the journey can be endlessly fascinating.

Defending Sonic Youth from the youth…

My heart is sad when I think of all the nineties rock stars that didn’t live long enough to host a podcast.

Glad NASA got one last successful launch off before the rebrand of the future Trump-Kennedy Space Center.

I would happily volunteer to be a human replacement for Large Language Model training. Hire me for a year to read as much as possible and let’s see what I produce.

Cleopatra on a podcast refuting her role in Caesar’s death.

Some kind of time worm hole where we’re supposed to care what Courtney Love and Billy Corgan think. Did we confuse April Fool’s with Groundhog Day?

My film, LINES DRAWN, about the shapes of the pandemic, is showing online this month as part of Labocine’s mathēmatiká series. www.labocine.com

Happy 23rd anniversary to the Baltimore City Paper’s article about an upcoming John Lee Hooker/Ministry album where they covered each other’s songs, an article that started in me a life-long quest for an an unobtainable musical holy grail.

Maybe the Real April Fools Were The Friends We Made Along The Way…

Not completely sold on BlueSky, but there’s more Lungfish love here.

No better time for that long rumoured Dylan/Merzbow collaboration to finally come to fruition.

Separating the artist from their art is what I do when I compliment Dave Matthews and Tom Morello for their righteous political stance.

I appreciate this thorough investigation.

Wow.

I fondly remember just a couple years ago when cassettes were a cheap underground option to vinyl prices, but $25 plus $33 shipping seems to be the norm nowadays.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend is going through all kinds of convoluted meanings right now.

A parent friend of mine told me she loves watching AI tik-toks of large women falling through the air and I realized there are worlds that #filmtwitter can’t even imagine.
