the muse has been fucking the dog.

ACN is a scam. Destroy the middle man.

ACN and multi-level marketing ploys are just places for failed industry tycoons to go to continue to sit on their asses and generate revenue. The way I see it, as soon as you have people reselling a service like home telephone, there is something wrong. If A is selling a product, it should be selling it directly to B the consumer not have C be the consumer and B be middle-men who leech off of residual revenue. What disturbs me the most is that these middle men will create any argument to try to convince you otherwise. They will go to any length to try to convince you that they can make your life better and improve your financial situation. If you have to dress something up to sell it, I don't think it's good enough to sell let alone resell. It's all just a bunch of bullshit that further complicates life, and people still fall for it. It amazes me. Just say no, no, no, and no. Fuck you, I will buy my telephone, internet, tv service directly from the provider..I don't need to save 10 bucks a month so that you can sit on your ass doing nothing noble to generate cash.

the web is actually a pig pen.

There is far too much overlap on the world wide web when it comes to content. For example, there are 20 websites that all carry out the same functions. Youtube, Flikr, Facebook, Myspace, Blogger, Twitter, etc. All of these forums in my opinion only clutter the internet with redundant and useless information. It really is coming to the point where knowledge is taking a beating directly from the diversity of the www. If it really is a web, there is no centre; it's just a myriad of nodes connected together in a random and chaotic fashion with no real foundation.

As an artist, I find it a personal pain in the ass to update every aspect of my web presence i.e myspace, youtube, facebook, twitter etc. People are spending too much time lost in these processes and not actually grasping the real meaning of content and knowledge. Compartmentalization is only going to be able to go so far before people will go running back to simplicity as they always do. My question is that if we know this, why do we always gravitate towards complication? Communication is a complex process, but it doesn't have to have ridiculous like updating a twitter status every time you wipe your ass.

I am wasting too much time conforming to these new communication standards, but if everyone else is doing them and you are trying to stay at the top of the heap in terms of your product "music" than you are forced to bite the bullet, suck it up and move forward. I hate the status quo, and I hate moving to the rhythm of humanity. Fuck you world that wants to bury true knowledge and simplicity in a heap of bullshit information.

Entropy. Growing with nowhere to grow.

exploring ravines
singing sympathetically in underground tunnels
producing eigentones
it's like a mirror
but for sound

this city makes my teeth smaller
grinding
from traffic, fast paced
no stopping

i nervously shift around
within this maze of skyscrapers
waiting for meaning
waiting for my life to intersect
with fate
