If the darkness and corruption leave a vestige of the thoughts that once we had...

Well, you are awake. Lie still. Why torment yourself? Who would you see? Someone you do not know. A stranger. What is it we are seeking? Diamonds? Rubies? Gold? Perhaps narcotics? How civilized this earth used to be. But as the world becomes more primitive, its treasures become more fabulous.

You want to avenge the death of your dear friend. How touching. How Sweet! How nicely it justifies your quest for the great whatsit.

Why don't you leave, Mike. Before I change my mind.

They. A wonderful word. And who are they? They are the nameless ones who kill people for the great whatsit. Does it exist? Who cares. Everyone everywhere is so involved in the fruitless search for what?

Whew.

Movement Through Thought starts in 30 minutes. The program airs every Friday 6:30 to 7:30 UTC on #aNONradio .

I'm mashing together some techno tonight. Old tracks by Damon WIld, Inigo Kennedy, Max Duley, Surgeon, etc.

Drinking tea at 2 AM. My sleep schedule's messed up again.

Mix is OK; good tracks. "Mind Travel Method" and "Out Of Bounds" are two favorites of mine, worth calling out. A solid hour of #electro in any case.

Trouble leaned against the heavy display top, watched the menu flashing under her elbows. This is what she hated most about the on-line world, the shadows as much as the bright lights of the legal nets: too many men assumed that the nets were exclusively their province, and were startled and angry to find out that it wasn't.

Melissa Scott, Trouble And Her Friends, page 120 of the Tor hardcover.

I plan to follow up and read Scott's "Dreamships" and "Dreaming Metal" at some point, hopefully this year. Neither are connected to "Trouble", but seem to have a similar attitude.

I read the first ~50 pages of "Dreamships" in a bookstore and liked it well enough.

I finished Melissa Scott's "Trouble And Her Friends" a few days ago. My first time through the book. It's very '90s cyberpunk. First publication 1994, my copy says. So a few years after Cadigan's Synners.

I liked it and would recommend it if you're interested in the style. Worth reading, for sure.

Movement Through Thought starts in 30 minutes. The program airs every Friday 6:30 to 7:30 UTC on #aNONradio .

I'll be playing ~130 BPM electro tonight. Tracks by Dynarec, Elecktroids, Gosub, Scape One, etc. A bit predictable, maybe, but that's what I'm feeling.

Very Detroit this week. Fast #electro . UR, Electrofunk, Twilight 76, IT, V-Max, Clone, etc. A little sloppy, but rocks anyway.

Snow has arrived in Forest Grove. I'm skeptical it'll stick past morning.

It does look nice outside, though.

Movement Through Thought on #aNONradio is coming up in 30 minutes. The show airs every Friday 6:30 to 7:30 UTC.

I'll be jamming some fast electro tonight. Detroit, dutch, etc. Expect aggressive, loose, sloppy mixing.
