A whole society that only do something when there is a reward, rather than doing it just because it’s right or good. What I kinda wanted this week was some sort of modern CCR/Neil Young-ish Bayou tasting sounds… not sure.

The liars he worries about most these days are not cyberwarriors or even cybercriminals but private companies and government agencies advancing their own interests, whether for surveillance or commerce. Apple controls the memory on our iPhones. Google keeps tabs on what we search for, and whom we write to, when we use Gmail. We unknowingly pledge allegiance to the companies we do business with.

“Now we have to trust all these entities,” Mr. Schneier warned. “Google has great customer service. Problem is, you’re not the customer.” He added later: “ ‘Security’ is now a catchall excuse for all sorts of authoritarianism, as well as for boondoggles and corporate profiteering.” – Trust in the Digital Age (NY Times)

A recent discovery of a mix I made a few years back really struck home that I’m fairly bored with music right now. Perhaps music better in 2010; music has better and worse years. Take for example 1978 and 1993, both amazing years for music. Crate diggers know. Or maybe I’m just out of touch. Whatever the fukk it doughnut really mattress. The hand drawn selection of audible peach fuzz you’re about to go down on is what I got this week.

Every man has a right to be shocked so long as it is his own shock and not a mere imitation of somebody else’s. What one has no patience with is the case of those people who are always shocked in herds. They are intellectually too lazy to be shocked, so to say, off their own bat. So they join a mob of the shocked as they might join a demonstration in the streets or a political party. – Robert Lynd

“I see men assassinated around me every day. I walk through rooms of the dead, streets of the dead, cities of the dead; men without eyes, men without voices; men with manufactured feelings and standard reactions; men with newspaper brains, television souls and high school ideas.” – Charles Bukowski

Francis Crick confessed that he was tripping the first time he envisioned the double helix. Steve Jobs called LSD “one of the two or three most important things” he’d experienced. And Bill Wilson claimed it helped to facilitate breakthroughs of a more soulful variety: Decades after co-founding Alcoholics Anonymous, he tried LSD, said it tuned him in to the same spiritual awareness that made sobriety possible, and pitched its therapeutic use—unsuccessfully—to the AA board.

“I want to hear raucous music, to see faces, to brush against bodies, to drink fiery benedictine. Beautiful women and handsome men arouse fierce desires in me. I want to dance. I want drugs. I want to know perverse people, to be intimate with them. I never look at naive faces. I want to bite into life, and to be torn by it.” – Anais Nin

I was talking to someone about Kanye West this week. I think last time that happened was about 2004 when a friend of mine used College Dropout as his full argument why all people going to college are stupid and why he’s never going to be as stupid as the rest of us college folks. I don’t think I even tried to argue it, I just nodded.

Lauren Faulkner whose originally works are earthy, dark and haunting (and beautiful I must add) but not anything like this However, a simple intrigue into the Moog synthesizer that was sat in the corner of the room, followed by a little bit of messing with some of the flashy knobs and within an hour Lauren had not only concocted her first synth-line, she’d also plucked out of nowhere a sublime vocal hook.

One afternoon a fox was walking through the forest and spotted a bunch of grapes hanging from over a lofty branch.
“Just the thing to quench my thirst,” quoth he.
Taking a few steps back, the fox jumped and just missed the hanging grapes. Again the fox took a few paces back and tried to reach them but still failed.
Finally, giving up, the fox turned up his nose and said, “They’re probably sour anyway,” and proceeded to walk away.

Ran into an old well dressed vandal that told me about this Dj Shadow Remix Project (Free Download). Some of the cuts are all ‘yeah, ok’, but a couple are all ‘damn’. I almost didn’t make it past the intro to this one, but it’s by far the most innovative without losing touch with the original.

 Human beings are not rational, but rationalizing animals. If they find it frightening to think and painful to change, this is in large part because thinking and changing represent major threats to the beliefs that make up their sense of self.
