Chipmunk Christmas song slowed down AKA “Satan confers with His minions”.

“Put it on repeat and you’ll drift gradually into madness - it’s like an acid flashback to fetal languor, the surreal sounds that filtered through the uterine wall.” — Sean Michaels

#what a post to end the month on    #no regrets though

“I started building toothpick sculptures in 1968, when I was 8 years old. My early structures were abstract and about 2 - 4 feet tall. I built one sculpture that had a ping-pong ball roll through it. In 1974 I started a new sculpture and added the Golden Gate Bridge and Lombard Street, that also had a ping-pong ball roll through it. This is what started what is now Rolling Through the Bay.

“Over the years I have worked on Rolling Through the Bay, on-and-off, sometimes not working on it for years at-a-time, to do other projects and get married to my beautiful wife, Rochelle, and have a wonderful son, Tyler.

“I love working with toothpicks and hope to do so for years to come.”

Rolling Through The Bay by Scott Weaver
All it takes is 100,000 toothpicks and 35 years of your life and shazam: San Francisco as a grand, kinetic sculpture. Time well spent, you ask me (and I assume you did). More pics can be seen at tinkering studio

Limbo is one of the best albums you’ve never heard. Kristin Hersh an incredibly under-rated brilliant guitarist, singer songwriter. dark, twisted, twangy, raw, surreal and unique.
