In this selection from Project Moonbase alum DJ Bongoboy (and @gehegedrei.bsky.social) we concern ourselves with the journey to the moon. Anticipation being the hot sauce of existence.

Let us begin…

The Lee Miller show at Tate Britain is a must see exhibition. Beautifully curated and a fascinating account of her life and her photography.

ATTENTION CROYDONAUTS!

We've had a frankly astonishing email from the archivist at the Committee for Sonic Research. (@tcfsr.bsky.social)

Our researchers are looking into it, but if true, it could blow open a whole new chapter in the history of #CroydonSpaceport.

Watch this space...

Every single one of the illustrations is a brilliant brooding exercise in evoking dread & doom.
I’d never seen his art before I picked up this book, but after an Earl E. Mayan internet odyssey I’m completely smitten

A collage painting with black and white cut out photos of human faces and a snarling Alsatian dog surrounding a white painted sheet ghost, all against a black and purple background made of paint drips suggesting a spooky wood, above which door shapes are scratched in black ink

A collage painting in which a phot of two white men, one standing wearing a cowboy hat and crumpled shirt and trousers, the other squatting wearing preppy clothes and a sailor hat, are surrounded by an ominous purple painted background, above them a black and white painted skull, to their left a black white and grey painted area which is fairly abstract but suggests tv static intermixed with shadowy branches

Here's a similar idea a steel guitar manufacturer had:

Weird Guitar of the Day @weirdguitars.day · Dec 19

Gibson Les Paul with MSA pedal attachment

Here's a picture of a guy in a black T-shirt and jeans sitting down and holding a Gibson Les Paul. It looks like a fairly standard black LP Custom, but there's something funky going on with the bridge and it's got a weird box with six cables coming out of the side. The cables go into another weird box on the floor with six pedals. This, ladies, gents, and NB pals, is the only prototype Les Paul with an MSA stringbender attachment. You step on a pedal, and the corresponding string goes up in pitch. It's neat that one exists, but you can see why it didn't catch on.

From "Hearth Spirits and Kitchen Bogles" in An Almanac of Midwestern Prairie Spirits.

Text: Pantry Finks

Image: an illustration of three squat winged gremlin-like creatures perched on a single old kitchen chair. One is crouched atop the chair, one on its arm, and another beneath the chair, crawling through its spindled legs. The bottom-most imp reaches for a loose spool of thread.
