The Secret Life of … Shrooms

The Secret Life of Mushrooms.

A trailer for spec documentary about psychedelics and culture, still in need of funding. via Jesse Green's facebook feed; he's an old high school friend and apparently his wife makes TV about drugs, which we can all get behind.

Duck hunt

I've been meaning to post this up for a while: My pal Matt G's album Dead Duck is up for free on Bandcamp and it's pretty tight. Backpack hiphop, whiteboy uppermidwest (Slug, Atmosphere RIYL).

Goddamn CSS

I can't seem to make the main posting part of the blog wider without it getting rid of the sidebar. I want to make the main part wider so that the photos (uploaded at even medium size using blogger's own defaults) don't get cut off.

Hyenas

Even though it's totally in that danger area of Exoticizing The Other for me (not necessarily for him), I love Pieter Hugo's work, especially the hyena series. I mean, part of the danger is because hyenas just look so goddamned weird to me, these wrong dogs, but even with dogs these would be powerful images.
