I started another blog, because I don’t have enough to do. This one is all about obsessively recording the creative process in an attempt to make myself more sane. We’ll see if that piece of circuitous logic works out in …
Cheer Up
It was good for me, for a while, and lately it’s been bad. You can call it Seasonal Affective Disorder, you can call it being a Fucking Downer, but that’s what I am and the seasons do their worst to …
“Deathconsciousness” Test-Presses on eBay
You can now bid on one of the few existing test-press/white label copies of Deathconsciousness. Not only will you get to own one of only three copies, you’ll be directly helping me out.
We had a pipe burst in our …
The Reality and Unreality of Self-Help
Almost every day, I come into contact, somehow, someway, with self-help literature.
I call it “literature,” but I’m including within that loaded term numerous websites and countless email lists I’ve signed up for. I’m also including the books I’ve bought, …
New Year’s Resolutions
It’s the new year, which, of course, means it’s time for my annual review, the process of evaluating my own life that was the whole purpose behind this blog’s conception.
I love New Year’s Resolutions, because they force everyone to …
Sick Sense Redesign
I did a quick redesign for Andrew’s movie-reviews site, www.thesicksense.org. Not bad for an hour’s work.

I’ve been meaning to write more about what it’s …

Lonesummer/Planning For Burial/Giles Corey Show
Fran and I trekked down to Philadelphia last week to do a small show of Giles Corey material with friends LONESUMMER and PLANNING FOR BURIAL. It was pretty great. I had a good time and thought that the Giles material …
A Look At the Giles Corey packaging.
Finishing this record has been one of the most time-and-soul-consuming things I’ve ever done. Most of that effort has gone into the packaging, which includes a book that’s spiralled into a nearly-200 page monstrosity filled with rare images, poetry, depressing …
Mamaleek – “Kurdaitcha”
Mamaleek’s excellent and innovative record Kurdaitcha was finally released today over at ENEMIES LIST.
To say I’m excited about this record is an understatement. It’s really one of the best things I’ve heard in a long while, and I’m proud …
