No new music just yet, got something in the works though, need to get back into writing stuff on a more frequent basis.

mall ninja!

ok so the following link was stolen from boing boing, via william gibsons site.  I can see why gibson digs this, the mall ninja is almost a retarded “Rydell” type character, from a future where malls require armed (with a stunning array of contemporary ordinance) security personell or “tactical specialists”.  Its a funny read, follow link here http://lonelymachines.org/mall-ninjas/ and check out william gibsons work if you havent already, start with neuromancer(classic and all time favorite book) or idoru(really imaginative description of a future tokyo built using nano machines)
