Double Dagger – Live at Whartscape 2007
So, I didn’t mention it before, but right after Christmas I went out and bought myself a Mac (MacBook Pro to be exact). A costly investment that I needed to make so I could start putting my backlog of videos online. Several weeks later (I’ve been pretty wrapped up in the Beatbots website relaunch), I’ve finally got a video ready for public consumption … check it out.

Welcome to Botsopolis
MyMiniCity is a flash game that lets you build your own virtual city. What’s cool about it is the city will grow in size, the more people that visit its webpage. Just select a country and name for your city and you’re up and running (no sign up necessary). I created Botsopolis (link below) as a virtual city for Beatbots.com’ers. Thanks to Joe VG for turning me on to this.
Down the Rabbit Hole
A while back I played a little game where I randomly picked a start point in Wikipedia and documented my path through the information, which meant following one and only one link from one page to the next. A navigational train of thought, if you will. Here’s how I got from Third Eye to the Semantic Web …
Third Eye
Clairvoyance
Astral Projection
Binaural Beats
Intelligence Amplification
Wisdom of Crowds

Patterson Park
I took this photo with my cellphone camera. I learned that by breathing on the lens I could make a pretty cool soft focus effect.
Awesome action shot by Raven Baker.
More photos should be up soon on Raven’s Flickr site.

Happy Birthday Mom!
This weekend the family met up in Ocean City (Fort Starfish) to celebrate my Mom’s birthday. It was a whirlwind 24 hours of food, family and fun. Happy birthday Mom, we love you!
Tiny Mix Tapes: What’s Up Baltimore?
2007: What’s Up, Baltimore?
Making Music in Charm City, ca. 2007
[December 2007]
You have to climb countless graffiti-covered flights of stairs—or risk taking an ancient, fragile freight elevator—to get to Baltimore’s Floristree Space. No need to remember what floor it’s on, just follow the sounds of screaming guitars and frenetic drumming all the way to the top of the warehouse.
Inside, you’ll see merch tables blocking off the residential portion of the space. Someone who likely lives behind those tables will ask you to pay the suggested donation for admission to tonight’s show. The air will be thick with cigarette smoke as people stand around in groups or crowd the stage, drinking beer they brought themselves or taking sips out of flasks. Whether the music is discordant or melodic, electronic or acoustic, improvised or thoroughly rehearsed, a rapt audience will be assembled, dancing or nodding along approvingly.
