“If 19th-century travel writing was principally about place - about filling in the blanks of the map and describing remote places that few had seen - the best 21st-century travel writing is almost always about people: exploring the extraordinary diversity that still exists in the world beneath the veneer of globalisation.”

I once wondered aloud if scientists had tattoos of their science. The answer was yes, and this ever-growing collection is the evidence.

Pogo - “SplurgenShitter”

I first heard about Pogo when Tuneage posted his “Alice” video, and he’s been in constant rotation ever since. Most of Pogo’s music is made almost entirely out of pre-recorded samples from movies (to date, Pogo’s made songs out of Alice in Wonderland, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, and Mary Poppins, to name a few), and each song is as charming as it is good. “SplurgenShitter”, one of the few songs that isn’t built on samples from a single movie, mixes laid-back drum machines with ambient keyboard loops while sneaking in samples that never feel forced or out of place. This is exactly the kind of song I reach for on a Sunday afternoon in the summer.

You can download Pogo’s entire catalog for free from his Last.fm page, or if you’re more visual, the videos that accompany some of his songs are similarly well done.

Just listened. Lovely!

Wikipedia: The Blade Runner curse:

travors:

Among the folklore that has grown up around Blade Runner over the years has been the belief that the film was a curse to the companies whose logos were displayed prominently as product placements in some scenes. While they were market leaders at the time, many of them experienced disastrous setbacks over the next decade and hardly exist today… (Via inky)
