"Steve Roden spent his life cutting quiet openings into the fabric of perception, inviting listeners to step sideways into a universe where the faintest rustle carries the weight of a revelation."

I would bet the Reid brothers were mainlining Husker Du when putting this record together.

Four decades back a major label released a debut album that sounded like almost nothing on earth while still sounding incredibly familiar. Our man in San Francisco Ned Raggett takes stock of it all

Happy Birthday to the JAMC's Psychocandy, which turns 40 today!

"I don't know" is my mission statement.
"I don't know" is one of the most powerful intellectual positions imaginable.

Where you plant your "I don't know" flag signals your research question, methodology, and even what *counts* as evidence.

Current commercial manifestations of GenAI make it so you cannot even see the spot on the ground.
My biggest GenAI-related intellectual fear is about the future of “I don’t know”

@dragonslayerma.bsky.social for this week's #promptcombo #northstar, I present you with a (slightly cheating) beau présent poem about Kochab, one of the two 'guardians of the pole' that were once believed to be the true north star. It's also the second brightest star in Ursa Minor ✴️

Imagine when around 80% of the island of Ireland looked something like this, with lynx, wild boar, wolves, bears, and so much more. We should be a rainforest nation.

A *massive* part of our heritage has been stolen from us. Let's start bringing some of it back, via #Rewilding.

Hüsker Dü :: 1985: The Miracle Year

aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/11/04/h...

Hüsker Dü’s miracle year came at the mid 80s when, in the span of 12 months, the band released three monumental albums: Zen Arcade in the summer of 1984, New Day Rising at the beginning of 85 and Flip Your Wig in September...

Those talking openly about witchery often focus on the active aspects – possibly because they like telling people what to do. There's a neglect of passive enchantments, those parts of witchery where we listen, where we commune with the land. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

I wrote about public libraries as spaces of civic solidarity, common knowledge, and public infrastructure — all endangered by commercial and federal saboteurs
Extralibrary Loan: Making the Civic Infrastructure We Need
Amid a war on public knowledge, libraries are pushing outward, enlarging the commons through new configurations of civic and creative life.

"Peter Schmidt uses the “strikethrough” as a kind of shadow-writing: his “Encyclopedia of Light” reveals little dark threads of undoing — marks of the second thought that endlessly cancels the first."

A beautiful read with paintings by Joseph Mallord William Turner.
From our Conjectures series... Peter Schmidt's “Encyclopedia of Light”, an affecting work of sensory history... https://publicdomainreview.org/essay/the-encyclopedia-of-light
