shocking....photographic work of chris jordan


Depicts two million plastic beverage bottles, the number used in the US every five minutes.


So i was wondering about online today, and i happened to look through a few of the links on Radiohead's website (which is also great by the way), I'm always trying to locate a new piece of good information ya know...wherever the source might come from!

Radiohead is very active in projecting environmental awareness about our planet, which is a un-addressed issue by many of us in the world today unfortunately...seeing as it kills us as the human race! global warming is a real thing!!! our children will see this problem in their lifetime....we will see this in our lifetime, and the consequences of it are truly dire!

the Earth is truly a lot like us....and we are like the flu to the earth....hurricane Katrina? truly a tragedy that many of us felt, imagine this in vast levels, imagine the earth getting a "fever" and slowly destroying itself, and us along with it.....and its our faults
, we breed and breed and grow as a society, and make so much waste that its overwhelming for the world.... especially us as Americans! SORRY, *PHEW* but we waste without hesitation, remorse, understanding of what we do...chris jordan's photographic work truly puts it into perspective in a way maybe more of us can understand......we hear statistics rattled off all the time, and no one pays mind to them....because these numbers of waste are so huge....take a look at this and let it impact you in a positive way!

my equipment...its sad i know.

well for the curious (and my own personal masturbatory desires...sorry i know im a little creepy) i have decided to add a list of my scarce studio beginnings as of current...i seriously need money! along with the major items (new interface, ram, midi cables etc.) i really am desiring a korg ms-20, a yamaha an1x, a akai mpc 1000, a decent turntable, a unicorn, and two gallons of malt liquor.....anybody? anyways heres the list of current lovelies enjoy folks!

akai ax-60 - polyphonic 61 key analog synth/sonic eardrum sodomizer ...the neighbors love it

akai s900 - classic low bit slow as snails sampler. great addition to the noisemonster above, also dr. dre used it..now i rock

korg poly-800 - i could seriously do the soundtrack to short circuit 3 with this crap box!

acoustic guitar- unknown brand, basically starting point for most of my ideas, my baby

fender strat- going to the shop soon for upgrades, pickups, a few minor re-wirings

frostwave resonator (glorious ms-20 filter clone)- if you twist the knobs just right....it'll make you soil your pants..in a good way.

dell dimension 2350 2.2ghz 1gig rm 30gig hd- upgrade someone?! haha i'm surprised i can get more than 1 track of atari bleeps outta this thing, although that wouldn't entirely be a bad thing

the yamaha an1x - i want u.



can i just say how badly i want one of these damn things?! if only one would pop up sometime with a decent price on ebay....i love the idea of being able to record panning and other such things into your patches....and it sounds like castlevania.....enough said.
