The somewhat awesome Brooklyn band Yeasayer has an interactive website to advertise its newest single and it’s very neat. Kinda Like being inside a crystal orb as part of a seance involving naked Brooklyn hipster-hippies. It has nudity, unsettling new-agey noise music and all sorts of spooky stuff that you’d probably barely associate with the single it advertises. It’s nice, however, to see that more mainstream Brooklyn artists are still trying to be “far out” instead of just being lo-fi and shambolic. Keepin it alive! Anyway, this is a compelling way to share music for promotional purposes rather than just giving it to the same blogs and it’s a reminder that the internet should still feel stange and interesting, as it’s not really felt that way lately, save for events such as the Blue Spiral above Norway which I will now post a video for:

I don’t know what that is, but it’s NOT a missile. Some time ago during the golden-era of the internet I discovered the HAARP Project and it seems like one of the most credible conspiracy theories that I was made aware of.  If the internet seems like its all regurgitated hype and gossip, at least it’s giving us several videos of the Blue Spiral. If it was ten years ago I would have to wait for Sightings or Unsolved Mysteries to see this kind of stuff.

Not sure exactly how to relate these two, just that the internet should still make you feel like you’re an explorer with discoveries still to find.
