As you are probably guessing I am having a great time following the landing of the Huygens Probe in Titan…Stayed up late last night to see the first photos, but the site was swamped. Anyway, a cool thing about this mission is that the probe has microphones…So give these alien mp3s a listen. They would make excellent PsyTrance samples!

The Copy
Time to mix things up. Meet iPod shuffle, the unpredictable new iPod. What will it play next? Can it read your mind? Can it read your moods? Load it up. Put it on. See where it takes you.
The new iPod Shuffle is out…hmmmm did you read the above bullshit? It has no screen and no method of knowing what song plays next so they come up with this amazing “concept” of randomness. Fuck. I’ll probably get one anyway; at least its a big key drive with the added bonus of an mp3 player.
Who knows? Maybe it’ll surprise you and cook something for dinner!

Deer God
Remember that scene in Pulp Fiction where they accidental shoot a guy inside the car? Remember how it looked like? Well, prepare yourself for some good old start of the year gore… A deer through the windshield. (very graphic content, but don’t worry it’s just a deer right?)
FYI
End of the year burn out… I’ll be going to Therme Vals for a couple of days to chill, and see if I can finally start 2005!
