Fairlight CMI Artist Videos
There is a moderated group for users and fans of the old Fairlight CMI. As one of the developers of those machines I think I was too busy to notice a lot of the stuff that was happening around them at the time.
On YouTube there are lots of Artist videos using the machines. This is a You Tube Special with Sakamoto and others discussing Electro Rock and demoing the system.
It was very high tech at the time, honest!
Nethanderal vs Nerd
There was a news story last week about a guy that drove half way across America and set fire to a guys trailer park home after he called him a nerd on an Internet Website.
The guy charged used the expression "of dealing with a Nethanderal". I read that and thought, he must have seen my cartoon here...

Art & Technology
This is a link to the Art & Technology website, where you will find many how to articles related to technology and creative endeavours .
Why start a Blog too? A good question.... We can run editorials, RSS and run a forum on our site, but don't know if it is worth doing. A Blog seems a simple way to experiment, indpendant of the main site. Will anyone visit this Blog? Don't know... maybe MySpace is the place to be this week, or is that Second Life? Or was that last months next big thing?
Will we get any comments about Caricatures, Car or Political Cartoons, Music or Animation, Sculpting and Technology, or those applied to each other? 3D Graphics? Video Editing? Could any just be about Funnycar or Topfuel Drag Racing, or maybe bathroom design or restoring old Audio Equipment or Musical Instruments?
How about the Sci-Fi themes in Joe Satriani instrumental rock? Or that Metallica and Judas Priest have some really great rock tracks? The combination of Techno and Metal, ala Filter doesn't come up often, or is that just me?
Concept Art and Design Sketches are interesting when you get a chance to do them, but that isn't that often. There aren't that many customers who need them. Same for StoryBoarding, at least in our part of the world. Ron Cobb lives here, but doesn't work here.
I had an email to the website asking for two tutorials on Design Sketching. One on the technical part of plans and views, the other on getting inspiration. I'm still thinking about them.
Will the response be different from what the Website attracts? It will probably take 6 months to be able to tell.
