The Operative: Madness, no. Something a good deal more dangerous. Have you looked at this scan carefully? At his face? It's love, in point of fact. - Serenity (2005)

matthew dear - soil to seed

You are a three decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!

- The Grinch

bonobo - black sands

There's a destination a little up the road

From the habitations and the towns we know

A place we saw the lights turn low

With the jig-saw jazz and the get-fresh flow

Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts

Two turntables and a microphone

Bottles and cans just clap your hands just clap your hands

- Beck, Where it's at

Teen Daze - No Regrets

Don't be ornery like a horse or mule that needs bit and bridle to stay on track.

Psalm 32:8-10

four tet - angel echoes

When the peaks of our sky come together my house will have a roof - Paul Eluard

The Books - I Didn't Know That

Behold the finite set of thirteen convex figure

the irrational sine versus tangent forty-five.

And we genuflect before pure abstraction

1.05946…, twelfth root of two, amen.

to begin again…

To whom we venerate seven pieces,

endlessly manifold, self-contained, replete.

With all respect, we beseech the book of figures

Make us your analog, to begin again.

- Nick Zammuto and Paul de Jong
