NBA Franchise Catch-up
If you’re even a mildly-serious hoops fan, you’d surely agree with me that the golden era of the NBA was the 80s to early 90s. Close your eyes for a moment and it’s easy to drift back to a time when Spud Webb was winning dunk comps, Craig Ehlo was repeatedly made a [...]
There’s a classic philosophical thought experiment called the ‘brain in a vat’ theory which proposes that you’re really just a brain floating in a tank and are hooked up to a computer which simulates all your experiences. Therefore, it says, there’s no way of knowing conclusively whether you are actually yourself, with a brain inside [...]
Hey man, I just … I can’t function in the morning without my morning coffee. I really fuckin love the coffees they make at Single Origin man. Single Origin FTW!! I mean, that guy – he’s so crazy! But I reckon he’s good for business, right? Yeah, LOLz man! I dunno anyway … what? Yeah [...]
As you may already be aware, life is hard. Times are tough and there is nothing tougher than going out to a nightclub scenario, where something moderately annoying could happen at any time:
…
1. $8.50 for a gin & tonic and you have the SHEER AUDACITY to give me a bastard-cut piece of lemon instead of [...]
Seriously just like lazer disc totally wiped out VHS we need some new
kind of information-arena format (like an information ULTRAhighway) to
replace the internet because right now (aside from Twitter) it’s pretty
much nothing but ads for dick pills and shitty edits of shitty remixes
made by dudes that are most likely pretty shitty dudes.
It’s cool that technology [...]
We are in the studio of artist Horimyo - a space in a set of innocuous apartment blocks in the middle of Saitama city, on the outskirts of the sprawling metropolis that is Tokyo. While the studio seems regular enough, it is evident that we are witnessing an esoteric ritual whereby the process is of as [...]
You wouldn’t have to be a die-hard basketball fan to have been absolutely sickened to have heard the news that the Sydney Spirit basketball franchise is teetering on the brink of extinction. Indeed, you’ve probably asked yourself the same questions that I did upon hearing that club owner Greg Evans has been forced to put [...]
I apologise for straying into the subject area of my esteemed colleague Jo Jo Zep, but some things just need to be said. Sneaky Sound System are the without doubt the most creatively bereft, musically ignorant, worst ‘band’ in Australia.
I know, I know, it’s a tough call to make with competition of the standards of [...]
This week marks the one-year anniversary of the ascendance to power of Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.
To help celebrate this milestone it’s instructive to put Kruddy’s story into the context of his past – as a prime dork. The type of guy at school who would sit under shadecloth at lunchtime rolling 25 sided dice in [...]
Not huge news, and probably no surprise to anyone that has actually followed the duo since day one, but Justice have revealed that their debut long player, †, used over 400 samples… only 3 were cleared. Anyone who hates on this fact is really, really idiotish. I already know people that are hating and dudes [...]
