As is the case with a lot of songs I like, sit tight until the chorus - it’s worth the wait. I mean, who doesn’t like a good chorus?
British artist Stephen Wiltshire is currently attempting to draw the Manhattan skyline from memory. since Monday October 26th. Wiltshire began filling in an 18 foot canvas at the Pratt institute, Brooklyn. The drawing is expected to be complete by Friday. You can follow his progress through the live webcam here.
Wiltshire diagnosed with autism at the age of three displays an unusually powerful photographic memory that he has applied to rendering city scapes. He can look at the subject of his drawing once and reproduce it accurately with photographic detail, down to the exact number of columns or windows on a building. He memorizes their shapes, locations and the architecture.
This is absolutely incredible. Autism seems to be somewhat of a mystery as far as why so much detailed information is able to be retained. In the view of artistic endeavors, it blows the normal brain away. Here’s a video of Stephen taking a flight over rome and redrawing it from memory
A Warm gun and a knife in the back - The Beatles/The Clash mashup
Here’s 2 segments from songs I love that I spliced together.
Both British, both changed the face of music history, both singing soulfully about seemingly violent subject matter.
I’m really happy with the way Map Maker Death came out!

6 minutes of reason about the healthcare debate.
Update: My flickr account as been deemed ‘Safe’ after I changed some of my viewing permissions. I received this in my flickr inbox this morning and it made me laugh.
“Please keep the Flickr guidelines in mind when moderating your content in the future.
Female breasts, bare/thong bottom, see through topless nudity, pasties, etc.. images need to be marked as “moderate”.

Genitalia/pubic hair images need to be marked as “restricted”.”
Because of content like this (amongst others… mostly art models, pin-up screen caps, old print media, and kitchy stuff like nudie playing cards) Flickr has deemed me a “loose cannon” and set my privacy setting to restricted - meaning, unless you have a registered account, you can’t view my photos. I’ve sifted through thousands of photos, marked my ART shots as “restricted content” and have sent a petition back to flickr to call me ‘safe’ again. Hopefully they come through.
Am I wrong to think this is at least a little bit absurd? I believe these fall more under the category or ‘provocative art’ then porno… right?
Hey All -
So since the announcement of our Halloween party there’s been a lot going on - the biggest being lawyer involvement leading to a change in venue. All is well though cause everybody is working on making everything go over smoothly. Details remain the same -
$10, Free Beer, BYOB also encouraged, 3 DJ’s, and a big ass dance party.
So again, bring yourself, your friends, you friend’s friends, and anyone else you want to be there - there’s plenty of space.
EDIT: Don’t forget to RSVP at Heyletsrage@gmail.com
