"Big Rock Grid" (audio only) [mp3 removed]
Update: I had a Quicktime .mov with this as a soundtrack but the file size is too large for my lo-fi standards so I pulled it.
Update 2: Here is the screenshot for the .mov. I may put the file back up if I can find a politely amusing way to explain the exorbitant download time.
Update 2: I've edited the .mov [converted to .mp4] to pick up the pace a little bit. I have also made a DVD of this video on a bigger scale that plays on a CRT, so this is a thumbnail version of that with full sound.
"Big Rock Grid" [12 MB .mp4]
thanks to mbs for finding the site full of big rocks (jewel GIFs)
"Steady State Funk" [mp3 removed]
I believe this to be a "killer riff." You could probably dance to it!
Enjoyed the first season of HBO's The Wire (thanks, S), but stopped watching Season 2 partway through the DVD box set. Reasons:
1. Ziggy. (Uggh)
2. The Greek and his crew. So many ominous silences, so much meaningful espresso-sipping.
3. Not enough Omar.
4. Too many characters recycling moves from first season.
5. Stevedore makes philosophical speeches about the decline of unions--eloquent but too writerly to be believed.
6. Last but not least--two union guys want to find out more about the chemicals The Greek is smuggling in shipping containers they handle, so they go to the public library and use Microsoft's Live Search.
