Shotgun Glitching

Day to day life has kept me away from fun or play stuff, so I decided to pick up on the 8-packs again.

Here is the original from the guys at Acid Planet.

And as always, mine is in my player below:

Sci-fi Scene

I have just started a Photoshop Tennis/Battle with Mark, a friend of mine that I met through a forum we both frequent.

So I laid down the challenge and the theme - so it's me that serves up the first image.

I'll post each volley (both mine and marks) as we complete them.



Again your thoughts or comments are appreciated.

Oh My God (Saturn vs Lohan)

Yesterday's 8 Pack got me to thinking about the first thing I produced in Acid Pro.

It was an experimental piece that was inspired by a couple of very disparate pieces of news that filtered their way to me.

The first was a recording of a radio transmission that was recorded by the Cassini-Huygens probe to Saturn. It kind of reminded me of the eerie sound effects that they used in 1950's sci-fi B-movies.

The second was a hijacked phone message, purportedly from Lindsay Lohan to Paris Hilton. I can't remember the exact details - whether she mislaid her phone or whether someone hacked his way into her voicemail - but the recording found it's way onto the web (I can't find the original article or news item now).

I heard both of these recording within about 5 minutes of each other and thought it might be interesting to juxtapose them against each other with a little creative editing.

I actually thought that I had lost this but after digging around on a couple of old archive drives was pretty pleased to have found it.

There are 3 tracks in the playlist - my creative fun and the two original recordings.

Let me know what you think.
