Less Art More Artlessness

Tim's written a post about paintings and sculptures by Preyawit Nilachulaka, and the collision of childlike cartoon imagery, sexual transgression and violent humiliation. I don't really get the connection but it seemed like a good chance to get some overdue gas mask imagery in a post along with vague allusions to recombinant culture. Go read some more.

Eros & The Eschaton

In 1994 Terence McKenna gave a lecture at Kane Hall at the University of Washington in Seattle.

Freeman

Freeman is everybody's favourite conspiracy theorist. He's so lovable that I want to be a conspiracy theorist just like him too. However compared to his encyclopaedic knowledge of everything from ancient history, freemasonry and the illuminati, to space wars and Obama cloning I'd quickly run out of reasons why anybody would believe me but the thing about Freeman is that beside the extraordinary web of deceit and collusion he paints about the world that is hidden from view his trump card is his niceness. I'm not even all that nice really so instead give him a whirl instead and brace yourself for the rabbit hole because even if he's 20% right, he's an extraordinary individual....and nice with it. If you're head doesn't spin after this you're locked down too tight "dude".
