A Smarter Cooler Joe Davis

Joe Davis, is a research affiliate in the Department of Biology at MIT. He "is an artist who has done extensive research in molecular biology and bioinformatics for the production of genetic databases and new biological art forms.

Pamela Ferdinand wrote, "Davis eschews the art versus science argument, insisting that he speaks both languages and could not possibly tear the two disciplines apart in his own mind.", The Washington Post[3]

His work includes
Experiments with how E. coli respond to jazz, and other sounds, with Andrew Zaretsky

Putting a map of the Milky Way into the ear of a transgenic mouse - "inspired in this project by a children’s story an ex-girlfriend wrote eight years ago

"‘primordial’ clocks, his own test of theory that life spontaneously self-assembled. To Davis, if life could assemble from simple molecules, so could clocks, a much simpler system."[5]

"...ways to make artistic use of high-voltage electricity and spacebound signals. In the early 1980s, he drew up plans for channeling lightning bolts into a pulsed laser of almost unparalleled energy and into towering sculptures that would change the bolts' color and emit incredibly loud tones..."

"recorded the vaginal contractions of ballerinas with the Boston Ballet and other women, then translated this impetus of human conception into text, music, phonetic speech and ultimately into radio signals, which were beamed from MIT's Millstone radar to Epsilon Eridani, Tau Ceti, and two other nearby star systems. ... and more.[6-11]

Tic Tac Toe the movie

I'm surprised it hasn't been done already. Check out this film from Zoltarkill

Plain Brown wrapper

I went to the comic book convention last weekend it was a pretty good time I saw an inordinate number of people there who I thought ,or had wished, were dead. I wasn't able to buy any bootlegged video because ten dealers were arrested the night previous, Hooray for Hollywood!

I think its excellent that they are cracking down on these bootleggers that sell copies of videos that no one cares about. No one except for those desperate losers like myself who are willing to pay through the nose for a Dr. Who episode staring Rowan Adkinson that you can barely see through the static because its a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy. If Hollywood, and the BBC for that matter wants to stop these "PIRATES "( ooooh scary!!!) They should take a clue from This American Life and sell their shows.

"Hollywood" IE The Television and Film industry always have the same argument, that if they were to release certain titles on disk the cost would out way the profit. Therefore it would not be a wise business deal That is true if they continue to release media in the traditional fashion. NBC has sort of caught on with releasing podcasts of their Thursday night line up, "The Office", "My name is Earl" etc... but they should really take a chance and release "Manamal" -"The A-team" and other equally ridiculous shows that people are so passionate about. So what if your copy of "Misfits of Science" comes in a plain wrapper on a plain Silver DVD, If your really a passionate fan you won't care. I know I won't care if my copy of "Cop Rock" doesn't come with commentary

"Steven Bochco is way in to coke I mean really really into coke..." Yeah we know that's why he made "Cop Rock" in the first place.

It's been said that you can't please all of the people all of the time well maybe that's true, but here Hollywood fat cats have a real opportunity to do just that . Give the people what they want and bootleggers won't have to.

Super bowl F.U.

If I hear one more person tell me how great Detroit is now and how I should go down there and see what they've done with the place. I will kill Jerome Beddis by crushing him under every frigging article about how he came home for SUPER BOWL.
Detroit still sucks and it's still corrupt. It doesn't matter how many fresh coats of paint you put on a homeless person it wont make him disappear, besides he shouldn't have to.
Neither of the teams slept in Detroit before or after the game, just like everyone else they went running for the suburbs as soon as their business was done there. So don't tell me how great Detroit is PROVE IT! Stop sweeping shit under the rug and make some changes. A new restaurant is still a new restaurant IN THE GHETTO. Fix it first and polish it later.
Its like putting a new sweater over a broken arm sure it looks nice but it's not healing.

Jihad enough yet?

So Mohammad has a bomb for a hat and that pisses you off? At least the basis of your religion isn't being depicted as a total lame ass. Give me a Deity that blows shit up any day. this is LAME!

# 2 to the Simpsons # 1

Rent this from Net flicks or buy this from Amazon you will not regret it. Nor will you realise that anything this good was on the W.B. network!

Don't even send me an Email buffyfan01@aol.com you asshole!

Answer some questions already...

Lost is probably my favorite prime time show right now but I've finally gotten to the point where I 'm starting not to care. They need to quit bringing up new questions when there are so many old unanswered questions AND Stop showing the same shit over and over again.


I know this is a departure from the usual blog but I'm bored with my TV. I've seen every episode of the Simpson's and the new season of RESCUE ME isn't out yet so this stupid show is all I've got.

Stop me if you've heard this one.

"Oh Mister Davis?"

If there were to be a columbine type shooting in the school that I work at I would be in the top 5 to go. Because kids are rude and I won't fucking let them get away with it. This kid got locked out of class because he was late, so he banged on the door like he was the cops while I was in the middle of giving instructions, so I just kept going on... he banged even louder " I shouted, I can hear you I'm just ignoring you." If he'd had a gun he'd have shot me with it. With my dying breath I would have said these 3 words "Your an asshole."
