I noticed on the front page (lower half) of NYT today that :
"For the first time, computer scientists have created a robot that designs and builds other robots, almost entirely without human help."
So, wasn't that one of those events you have to remeber where you were and what you were doing when it happened ?
also in the news (news letter that is) :
SHELL
"Shell Is Swell" (Abaton/Import abaton@crystal.palace.net)
Vor 2 Jahren erschien ein Tape, das hiess "Shell vs. Neu!" und machte
einen Radio-DJ in NYC ziemlich nervös. Denn die beiden Mädels, die darauf
lustig vor sich hin homerecordeten, waren gerade mal 15. Und kannten Neu!
Die kenne ich auch, Shell aber war bisher nur ein Ölkonzern. Das ist nun
anders, denn diese CD ist unglaublich: man möchte "Fürsorge!" und
"Jugendschutz!" rufen, wenn Marianne Nowottny (die mit ihren zarten 17
schon mal solo in der Knitting Factory spielt!) und Donna Bailey ihre
schrägen Spässe treiben. Zwar nur ganz vage, aber doch spürbare Parallelen
zur jungen Lydia Lunch, bubblegum singalongs - als Ulk viel zu gut. Das
Info sagt dazu Gothteen-Girlpop, ich nenne es Trash-Audio-Art und
gemastert hat das Ganze Elliot Sharp. Karsten Zimalla
This is the Shell review, translated courtesy of alta vista. It reads kinda
like a puzzle......
Before 2 years a Tape appeared, was called " Shell vs. new! " and made
rather nervous a radio DJ in NYC. Because the two girls, who homerecordeten
on it merrily before itself, were even times 15. And new knew! Those I know
also, Shell however was so far only an oil company. That is now different,
because this CD is unbelievable: one would like " welfare service! " and "
protection of children and young people! " call, if Marianne Nowottny (with
their tender 17 already times solo in the Knitting Factory plays!) and Donna
Bailey their diagonal fun float. Only quite vaguely, but nevertheless
noticeable parallels to the young Lydia Lunch, bubblegum singalongs - than
joke much too well. The info. says to it Gothteen Girlpop, I calls it Trash
audio type and gemastert the whole Elliot Sharp. Karsten Zimalla

Alas, it seems that German culture is still on summer holiday. Asphyxiated boy where are you?
Abaton
Asphyxiated boy where are you?
I'm here, I've been trying to translate it... but it's in SUCH strong
colloquial language that it's proven quite difficult for me... I'm sorry!
*sob*
But then, I'd challenge any educated German to try to successfully navigate
some hip-hop magazine... I doubt they'd get too far.
More email to come!

here a quick, dirty translation of the article on "Westzeit" (as a
contribution by an early Shell fan):
"Two years ago a tape called "Shell vs. Neu!" was released and made a NY
radio DJ rather nervous. And this because the two girlies that had fun
recording at home were just 15. And they knew Neu! I know them too, but
Shell has been only a oil company untill now. This has changed, as this
CD is unbelievable: one feels like calling "children care!", "protection
to the minors!" when Marianne Nowottny (who in her sweet 17 already
plays solo in the Knitting Factory!)and Donna Bailey go for their wierd
fun. Even if there are some vague but sensible parallels to Lydia Lunch,
bubblegum singalongs, they are too good to be a joke. The info calls it
Gothteen-Girlpop, I call it Trash-Audio-Art and Elliot Sharp has
mastered the whole thing." Karsten Zimalla
