Last Thursday was beset by technical difficulties, so I’m re-doing the virtual release party tonight. Watch the post on the subVariant page in case I need to switch back to Stickam again: Robohustlin Virtual Release Party
Peter Bull, AKA Norwegian Recycling, blends sixteen hit pop songs into an epic mashup.
I’m a big fan of fractals, starting with discovering Fractint while filecrawling on a BBS back in the day, then naming my online “geek boutique” after them, then creating a paper toy named “Mandlebot”. Here’s a cool documentary on fractals by Nova: “Hunting the Hidden Dimension.”

Watch out, Nerdcore, Designcore is taking over the ‘trons.
Last.fm introduced a beta feature that can compare artists, genres and tags on a gender – age plot. Interesting.

Here’s one that’s particularly interesting:
Software, engineer, DJ, producer, and musician all skew male, while boyfriend, girl, email, outgoing, person, friends and love all skewed female.

Meiotic, In Your System, and Peoplemuver present the second in the EXPOSITION music and art series featuring a live performance from the highly acclaimed experimental electronic minimalist composer/producer THOMAS BRINKMANN.Famed for productions on his own Max Ernst and Suppose labels, Brinkmann gained a name in the experimental and techno community for his full-length remixes (or as he terms them, “variations”) of material by Richie Hawtin and Mike Ink. With recent releases on Curle, a new SOULCENTER album on Shitkatapult, and an upcoming contribution to a new Richie Hawtin project, Thomas continues pushing to new creative depths in sound. With a wealth of new material to draw from, this Chicago exclusive is even more highly anticipated.
Additional performances on the evening include a tag team dj set from ex-pat BRANDON INVERGO and IYS honcho FRANKIE VEGA, along with sets from scene vet KARL MEIER and a long awaited set from Koncept crew dj SABEO.
