oh, words can't describe...

So... while I write up my review of the (legendary) roots crew playing South Carolina for the first (and probably last) time ever... peep these videos...

I love the kin-typo in the Nuru video... and the message....
And Tom Silins bike is sick. Blacked out free coaster... i gotta get one...




I'm working on something between the two... haha but about fire safety...

anyhow:
A friend has asked me to write for him at You Can't Fake It... so look for some cross-blog postings in the future. All is love. OBM.

It's not a question of what should I do.

Hotep.

p.s. I find it a bit disappointing and painfully ironic that when the world seems at it's worst... I'm at my best.

So a lot of somewhat new music.

So, one of my all time favorite bands, The Roots are playing my city on halloween... The problem is none of my friends (who are here) like the roots... or they (we) can't (or can barley) afford the charity priced ticket... So... maybe something will happen in the next thirty minutes (doubtful.) But who know's how i'll get over...

Anyhow what's new... really nothing... but this is what i'm listening to now:

The Karen O powered sound track for the slightly disappointing movie: Where the Wild Things Are. (I've also dug up some old Yeah Yeah Yeahs stuff... haha more like It's Blitz)

We Were Promised Jet Packs These Four Walls might really be my album of the year... because the song "This is My House, This is My Home" seems to be analogous to my dementia. But it's apparently a love song... sucks.

Passion Pit and Phoenix. because it just makes me feel good... but also drives me crazy...

Jay-Z hate. or is it Kanye?

oh yea... and

The Roots album that never came out... or at least almost ruined my tuesday... but then i had a bicycle...

It wasn't rocket science. But was it that obvious?

Have you ever wondered what quantitative method to use when attempting to predict technological adaptation in developing regions?

I guess the hard part is validly quantifying Actor-Network Theory.

If this is the easy part, idk if I can do it...

For some reason I think doing this will make Bruno Latour want to come to my birthday party... but it probably won't... At least the variables will be whole numbers (nonnegative integers), and for once I think I get it.

But I know some people who read this blog are pretty smart... so... I thought i'd ask... you might have a 30,000 x 3 year answer.

Enjoy the pluralism in this one. Decode* and diffuse as you see fit :)

Foucault talks about information and knowledge as a means of maintaining hierarchy and control. I guess you're winning. There is a whole sociology of information management/knowledge subjugation strategies and techniques to control... or we can use what we know to better our situations... I guess there are infinite degrees of freedom in this one... I'll let you decide.


then I found fifty dollars.


*Even I couldn't find the cracks in my own information dam. Props kid. I guess I have failed to consider a grounded theory approach.

Hotep.

P.S. On this day 4 years ago I called a man and told him I'd play a sport at his school if he paid me money. After I hung up I felt some ambivalence. Same feeling four years later. C'est la vie? or the social construction of emotions/feeling rules (Hokeshield)... I guess social life is patterns.

Today I'm exceptionally proud of the fact I saw Iggy and the Stooges in Chicago.

Yea, i was there for the stage rush.
(Although I don't play that game.)

Hotep.

p.s. i have no idea where i found the time to post this.
