Ed Sent Me


He did, so I did. Again. Remember when I went here?

Gabber is a type of techno music that is harder, darker and faster than most, and is characterized by having unintelligible sounds. I'd never actually heard gabber until I saw this Web site, created by a group of graphic artists and musicians called The Laziest Men on Mars. The Flash presentation starts with a Japanimation-esque intro, where some evil dude with a half-metal face tells the crew of a space ship "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US" in a computerized voice. Then a song, "Invasion of the Gabber Robots," plays over a show of dozens of photos that have all been digitally altered with the evil guy's catch phrase. It's written on a fortune cookie slip, on the warning label of a pack of cigarettes ... it's lit up in giant squares as a Wheel of Fortune puzzle. You have to see it to understand it, and even then, you probably won't.

In which we enter the alternative universe in which police always believe dreadlocked individuals

I previously raised the question about whether Interference Inc. was prompt in letting the authorities know that the so-called bombs in Boston weren't bombs. Now a new question has been raised - was Peter Berdovsky prompt in letting Interference Inc. know that the guerilla marketing campaign had gone sour? And should he have informed the on-scene officers that there was nothing to worry about? The issue was raised because Berdovsky videotaped police at a (supposed) bomb site. This is what the Associated Press said : One of the men criminally charged after placing blinking cartoon advertisements around the city videotaped a police bomb squad removing one of the electronic devices, but did not tell the officers the object was harmless. Surveillance cameras caught 27-year-old Peter Berdovsky videotaping officers removing what they thought was a possible bomb. But Walter Prince , Berdovsky's new layer (replacing semi-guardian Michael Rich ), puts a different spin on the whol...
