The less said of work this week the better, but at least everything got pulled together on time, no project went careening into disaster, the right ppl were impressed and so far no major cabbages have fallen out of the basket (although if one had I wouldn't remember it, by definition XD;). I've also managed MUTEK every night since Wednesday, without collapse. It helps to get the physical activity in; and let's be honest, I stay up regularly on weeknights for far worse reasons. I subscribe to Villalobos' vision of the "club" as a sunny, 24/7, urban outdoors public utility, like a sandbox playground XD basically a fairy mushroom ring of speakers with noise cancelling technology on the perimeter. You step in, dance until you've de-stressed, then leave whenever you feel like it. (I've always thought he derived the idea from Piknic.)

It's a sexless concept of the thing, but then "the club" comme tel is a multi-use space, and for this particular purpose it's currently inefficient... there are different crowds as everyone knows and Sherlock (a total fascist-aesthete) will turn out for the stuff Schuldig is bored by. Basically. XD; It turns out he majorly digs Echospace. IDEK. But at one point I was at the barrier and turned around and there wasn't a single person with an alcoholic drink for rows. Dub techno: socially validated autistic stimming for four hours at a stretch.

Meanwhile, as I left the Plastikman show last night I overheard some bleary hipsters threaten Richie Hawtin with sexual violence. NOT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FACT. It's gotta be the hair, I refuse to believe the fanboys were creepers like that in the 90s.

And then there was ~*MODESELEKTOR NIGHT*~ XD

credoimprobus would be amused to know that we've gotten to the point where we just give them a whole night to curate. I couldn't stay for their whole set, ironically, due to ummm sororial unit's convocation ceremony the next morning (good on law school, it was over in a sweet 90 minutes), but the lineup was flawless.

readerofasaph reminds me that I had two thoughts about Glee S2 (it's not me, it's sororial unit):

1) You know that one TezuFuji doujinshika that Cfandom in particular was wild about? We used to swap the book, even. And one of her series was about Fuji quitting Seigaku and going to Hyoutei? What was her name?

2) The alternate reality in which fandom musical Harry Potter is on prime-time US TV kissing a boy... it's been said, I know.
