I heart colour-coded techno

[petronia]

Spent day working through to-do list and listening to this. The mix is amazing (download on linked page) but the helpfully-provided spreadsheet especially makes me happy. XD I like conceptualizing the track I'm listening to as a colour bar called "Pistachio-A-1", gradually followed/overlapped by "Rubine-B-2". It's soothing, in a more emotionally fundamental sense than aesthetics: just the idea of this complex architecture of abstract sound in time = a Pantone colour, itself designated by a series of alphanumeric symbols, everything indexing something else in the universal taxonomy. Is why I like words, really, they index things... Techno music for yr inner autistic-spectrum synaesthete. IOW, back to Kompakt Extra for the umpteenth time. XD Now that we are having the SSBB remix challenge I wonder if I should do something like that - link the stories compiled as original + remix(es) "releases", with random photo + colour bar + number for each cover image? This despite how I said I was expending no effort on this one.

Actually, I'm none too sure how these things normally work. ^^; Should people have to state which story they're remixing when they sign up, or leave it as a surprise? Or state the author and leave the specific story as a surprise?

OH AND A MEME--

If you had me under your command and could make me write anything, regardless of whether or not I know the fandom or if anybody even writes fic in that fandom and no matter how crack-addled it might be, what would you love to see me write?

Oshiiii D is for Dance. XD

Bing, how long are you in Germany for? Until when can I send this CD and it will be assured of reaching you?

[one-if-by-land.livejournal.com]

laughing, I'm here until December 20! I'd assume anything out by the 10th should reach me safely, though perhaps it'd be better for both of us to just send it to my home address?

Carmel, then? I'll probably do that, there is special one-time stuff in this package and I am paranoid of it getting lost. XD

I find it kind of awesome that you guys appear to categorize Patrick Wolf in yr minds as "one of Sabina's characters". XD;;

a long, sordidly epic tale of PWolf's slow but stubborn coming of age into hand-clapping-carouself-fireworks manhood, along with several tangential chapters into all of the pitchforkers he's made out with along the way, including but not limited to:

Owen Pallett
Zach Condon
everyone from Bloc Party
that gaytard Mika (boy's good in bed but god is he an idiot)

Sometimes it depresses me that PWolf is real because if he weren't he would be the best novel ever. It may not stand up to logic but it's how I feel. XD

ITS SO TRUE. I weep.
