thanks for that link Lyndon
the character notation looks like
"12 Monkeys'" typing
(and not a sonnet in sight!)but being an ambience chaser from way back
this is great stuff - haunting, oddly oriental,
sinister perhaps (is DNA "handed"?)
disquieting? nothing ENO can't quell...have you tried the Ramone Genome
GABBAGABBAGABBA....or the more colourful frequencies
of the RGBGs version of YMCKyrs
Resonancy Boy -
Unless you think of us as mere vehicles for the perpetuation of the billions of bacteria that inhabit us all.
Hell yes! I am proudly a colony!
Macro-shoulder to micro-shoulder with my symbiosisters and brothers
A standing wave, a bio-energetic eddy
of co-existent cell clusters,
a frequency flyer and resonancy boy...
all hail the dominant biomass on the planet...(how else am I gonna synthesise folic acid or break down the bulk of the organic matter I send to my system - my little gut buddies do all the work - fermental as anything!)
Maybe Timothy Leary was right
and DNA just wants to get off the planet
...we are the toolbox...
- Bacteria the future!We may be the perfect hosts, but ya have to leave the party sometime, right?
After DNA-Mince anyone?
or am i merely having a plasmid-life crisis? -
I suppose it might be too much to hope that
it's all just a "viral" marketing push for a reissue of Stephen King's The Stand or perhaps a new Greg Bear book...?Has anyone started a PhageBook yet?
(this initiative is offered up for nurturing by The Idea Orphanage - free to the universe)yrs
Captain Trips
& the Blue MeaniesPS: The Terry Gilliam "12 Monkeys" award for best Post-Python Phlu Pun must go to Tom Beard
It wouldn't be the first time that someone has turned swine into spam.
- nice!

Quelle horror!
Raised (or reanimated?) as I was by whiteware-wolves on a diet of frisson chips...
and early British fare like the scary Day of the Triffids and Quatermass
I'd have to offer that The Shining - the film and The Shining - the book are really two different beasts - or maybe a beast with two backs.
But both are chilling in their own medium.
The two Ks (king n Kubrick) are masters of psychological /physiological triggers.
(or is that fuzzy-illogical?)If only Kubrick had had a chance to render a take on H.P. Lovecraft's disturbing non-Euclidean geometry, which was enough to make one pass non-Platonic solids off the page (as it were).
Tarkovsky's Stalker was well in the Zone or at least well within the ballpark - Disquiet Earth indeed!
Suspiria was always gonna work - I mean how could a recipe of a girls school in hysteria, maggots and that music fail?
How lovely to discover a small cadre of fellow Sapphire and Steel fans - sob - I thought I was alone.... thank you! (I still can't use feather pillows - they always get me down!)
And where are we with True Blood ?
Poppy Z. Brite must be spitting tacks!Zombies are Dis-ease
(followed by Quik-eze)give me Un-ease any day
may I also offer Peter Weir's Last Wave as a great and sadly under-rated horror movie too.
here''s your day back
peace

aka Sneezy and the boys -
one of my Flying Nun moments would have to be when it all coalesced into a purely nz thang - culminating in
the vegetable cricket match at Sweetwaters eartly '80s
with the denizens of the Flying Nun/Rip It up caravan
against allcomers - with a team consisting of Roger Shepherd, Doug Hood, Russell Brown, Harry Ratbag/Russell, Paul Rose, amongst others - much summer fun between bands - until the WEA people nursemaiding Talking Heads demanded it stop as their stars were worried by the cabbages that kept hitting their super duper luxury caravan - technically a six in those confines!
- my how times have changed...
(and probably my memories have been addled as well)another would be sitting on the door at a blinding magical gig by the Verlaines at Cosgroves in wellington, with a small crowd in and just thinking how lucky anyone here was, to be transported thusly (unfortunately the Sneakies who followed them had an abysmal night - c'est la vie - that's rock n roll)
great times, great people, greart community
long my the spirit last
