Bob Marley scratchin

"Reggae Scratchin'" [6.6 MB .mp3 removed--see update below]

Bonus b-side: "Slowsteppin'" [mp3 removed]

(genius "scratch school" photo by anthony pidgeon, east bay express, via google images; bob marley graphic from fill in the blank fan site)

I will probably do a more complex version of "Reggae Scratchin'"; this is the bare bones "street" version, ha ha. Obviously the scratching could be varied more throughout the piece, some more instrumental voices could be added, blah blah good songwriting values blah blah.

Update, March 19, 2008: "Reggaedrome II" [4.3 MB .mp3] replaces the "street" version, which I took down.

Blogging and the Arts Panel 2

Rhizome.org at the New Museum is having its second Blogging and the Arts Panel tomorrow night, Tuesday, May 17. You may recall the first panel, which yours truly was on and which got written up ad infinitum...on this page. Here's the prospectus for tomorrow's:
Rhizome.org Director of Technology Francis Hwang will lead a panel discussion on Blogging and the Arts. This panel, the second in a series hosted by Rhizome.org, includes painter and web-artist Chris Ashley, painter Joy Garnett, artist and programmer Patrick May, and writer Liza Sabater. The discussion will address issues such as ways that artists are using blogs to distribute their own work, and the influence of blogging culture on political issues of interest to those in the arts.

About Rhizome.org
Founded in 1996, Rhizome.org is an internet-based platform for the global new media arts community. Through programs such as publications, online discussion, art commissions, and archiving, it supports the creation, presentation, discussion, and preservation of contemporary art using new technologies. Since 2003, Rhizome.org has been affiliated with the New Museum of Contemporary Art.
Chris Ashley's work has been talked about on this weblog quite a bit; it's nice to see him getting over here to the east coast for some meat space confabbing. His work was described by some internet soundbite-meister as "Mondrian for your browser," and that's perfectly good but omits a few art historical steps and much of the innovation, as described here and here.

chloe stage two

Clocked in a solid six hours working in my cubicle today. Did this drawing, Chloe Stage Two (previously described here and slightly reduced in size for the blog), and another one I hope to wrap up on Tuesday.

UPDATE: I knew I was going to do this. I got up this morning and started tweaking this drawing. Above is the current state.
