CD | Download With “Soundsystem 0.0.1” (Day 086) digital dub-plate fanatic King FM infuses electr-dub with a hint of roots reggae in this light and summery outing. Comprising eight bass-heavy, downtempo thumpers, King FM is about an instinct to preserve a chilled-out blend of clicks and cuts, vibing against low, smooth bass and rattling, exotic percussion lines.

A road to a more enlightened age, pulling away from the downward spiral that cultural illiteracy or post-literacy seems to be indicating. Accelerated technology and planned obsolescence should not be the focus. A decreased emphasis on MULTImedia as a road for channel surfing, net surfing, browsing. Attention spans need to grow longer, not shorter. Technology […]

A walk-in or walk-thru magazine…a living periodical. Every month, the gallery changes. It is advertised, at newsstands, on television, and in other periodicals, with a repro cover image and masthead, but exists only in person…Readers may subscribe to it, and receive a discount…It is closed two days at month’s ending for set-up and reinstallation. Meanwhile, […]
How can the word “dynamic” apply to meaning? Perhaps we can create a context where we pre-visualize a setting – a site where the “interactive reading is to take place — and basing the rest upon a pre-history — namely, the user’s own back-story – he or she can assimilate new fiction as an ongoing […]
Blog (Eric Scott: Words) | Podcast An evolving online work, “Obsessions” incorporates Eric Scott‘s essays and Situationist rants of the hour.“…Filtered through me, everything – values, music, inspiration, comedy, art, sound, nature, archival strategies, typography, the Spectacle – eventually becomes Day For Night.”View OBSESSIONS Blog
As we unroll new pieces, we observe how others are playing, and ask:• How did they play last week?• What are they saying?• What do they expect?• How do we best stay out of their way?• What story are we telling?• What’s the bigger, over-arcing picture…a cohesive, or underlying theme defining how we present ourselves?
Namely, where there exists fact, there also exists “red herrings”…On television and in film, much of what we take for granted is removed for reasons of engaging the viewer’s focus, and helping to present the director’s vision in a single arc with minimal distraction. With an on-demand, or interactive basis for a web puzzle, the […]
Any creative property has a backstory; namely, the part that is interesting to the audience because it suggests the overarcing theme and humanity of the story. It is the history, and it also suggests that there will be a future after the entertainment is supposedly over. It enriches the story line and invites the audience […]
Sometimes there is a rule book. And sometimes there isn’t. In the latter case, the creators and the players will still need to agree upon some fundamentals. It is important that everyone first agree that they are playing a game. Sometimes, int he case of a reality based game, the rule book is part of […]
If you were to provide an account of what happened later, and try to account for their motives, what would these be? For the overarcing theme of a film to resonate as the end credits roll, the director’s vision should appear to illustrate a principle beyond the simple summary of its parts. If a mystery […]
With a fictitious character, there are so many questions surrounding that character and their world. What did they just do?
Visit the links to the content, backwards and forwards. Is security important?How easily can they find you, and what would this do to the effect of the story you’re trying to tell?
Can we make it look as beautiful as possible, without making it too beautiful?
Sometimes, the theme of one’s work becomes apparent over the course of experimentation, or improvisation. Balance that, against:Can this somehow represent something which is greater as a whole, than as the sum of its parts?

On ALIAS, Jack Bristow is SD-6’s principal Game Theorist. He consults in the hour of need when a strategy is possibly at risk of being undermined by hasty evaluation of the odds, or when a chief decision maker is potentially likely to underestimate the movements of the players. The science of game theory is as […]
Beyond aesthetics, there’s that ‘correct’ definition for anything that suggests that all other appropriations are kind of missing the point. Like Eno with Ambient music – not just a music that you can do other things in time to, but music that serves only its function, to be ambient. With aesthetics, we also have commerce […]
