One of my favorite image sites, Antlers WIFI, is back online, the images are of a different sort now and they do not have accompanying music. Still fantastic though.
This is awesome.
I really am enjoying the animated GIF renaissance of the last few years, so much so that I have my own GIF project . This image is so simple but has such nice depth and color, very well done. via DVDP
This is a video showing how to make a tape loop. It has been viewed over 80,000 times on YouTube. I love that video has become such an integrated part of transferring folk knowledge, especially in the realm of experimental and media based art.

James Bridle's publication of a 12 volume set chronicling every edit made on the Iraq War Wikipedia entry has been making the rounds this week.

Ben Ward has written one of the better essays I have read about understanding what the web is and what tools made for the web should do. I encourage reading the entire post but wanted to highlight this almost blatantly obvious, yet wonderful still, quote: Want to know if your ‘HTML application’ is part of …
I have stumbled upon two articles recently that discuss the place that the cassette holds in contemporary culture and music, one from Pitchfork and one from The Times.
