A really lovely 30-minute mixtape of recent live performances, rehearsal sessions and field recordings by Buzzin’ Fly’s Spanish left-field guitarist/electronic artist Towards Green. It’s available to download for free too. CS

Listened to this a few times today. Love it!

Love this video! What would you wax lyrical about like this? What’s your passion?

Love this little video from skillshare.  They’ve got a great tagline:  Learn anything from anyone anywhere.

We stand at the turning of the year as Joshua on the threshold of promise. Our fears are real: may we hear God’s voice say GO!

Big Brother isn’t watching. He’s singing and dancing. He’s pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother’s busy holding your attention every moment you’re awake. He’s making sure you’re always distracted. He’s making sure you’re fully absorbed. He’s making sure your imagination withers. Until it’s as useful as your appendix. He’s making sure your attention is always filled. And this being fed, it’s worse than being watched. With the world always filling you, no one has to worry about what’s in your mind. With everyone’s imagination atrophied, no one will ever be a threat to the world.  -Chuck Palahniuk, Lullaby
