art and life

Transgenic art:
Rabbits, fish, plants and mice that glow in the dark � not because
they are virtual or digital but because they are genetically engineered
to do so. These synthetically luminescent life forms share
their environment with a biobot, a robot whose actions are controlled
by a colony of amoeba acting as its brain.

hacking music

An article on Trent Reznor and his "pretty hate machines." I guess it's not a coincidence that NiN's music is what it is. :-)

telemachus

A couple of days ago I finished reading the Telemachus episode of Ulysses (the 1922 Text, linked is one of the references that seems to be quite complete, but in a topic with as many experts as Ulysses and Joyce, I will have to compile a list of links as well as the 'offline material' I'm reading). Stylistically what I keep thinking about is the internal dialogue and how it's done. Wondering whether to use it and trying to define exactly the limits placed by "X thought..." and their comparison to internal dialogue.
