An Interesting Life
I would like to add to this an excerpt from Neil Stephenson's
"The Diamond Age: Or, a Young Lady's Illustrated Primer" [Amazon
]
I don't wish you health nor happiness
I don't wish you peace nor freedom
But upon all who live I do wish an "interesting life"

R/D Music

R/D on/ine - :[Main Site]: - :[SoundCloud]: - :[Facebook]: - :[Twitter]:
R/D, one of the up and coming dubstep and tech-hop artists of our time, took on Burning Man in 2010 and quite literally tore the desert apart. His progressions are amazingly patient, building up energy into explosive beats... all overlaid with haunting melodies. It was a unique experience that the desert's not soon to forget.
Fever Ray - I'm Not Done: R/D's remix of "I'm Not Done" is how most people have come to know him, so it's only right that you do the same:

Love Up's: R/D released the double-track digital download "Love Up's" in May 2010 just after his Fever Ray remix. It really gave a peak into the progressive dubstep style he was building on. Here are both tracks:

The Face of God EP: "Face of God" gave R/D his first hit beyond the world of remixing. Nadine Risha's vocals intertwined with the deep bass to make the title track a "must hear" for anyone who loves electronic music.

Return to Remixing: R/D's return to remixing in Fall of 2k10 came with two explosive mixes. Many at Burning Man heard early versions of these in the desert. One is a remix of "Starve the Ego, Feed the Soul" by The Glitch Mob. It will be appearing on the "Drink the Sea" remix album, as R/D is friends with the Mob and was once roommates with edIT and Ooah. The other remix was of "Third Eye High" by Oscura & Eastern Sun. I've already bought the latter and am itching to get his Glitch Mob remix. I actually prefer his remix to the original. Any long-term readers may remember that "Starve the Ego, Feed the Soul" was one of only two songs from "Drink the Sea" that I said to pass on [ref]. Well... R/D's remix turns it entirely around for me. We wants it!

Note: After years of this meme floating around, a researcher at Cambridge named Matt Davis took a look at the meme itself. He posted his findings online here. Graham Rawlinson at Nottingham University wrote about this effect in 1976. His PhD Thesis is the likely source of the meme in the first place.
Faces and Hands
"Faces and Hands" is a series by Millefiore Clarkes that gives a glimpse into the world of treeplanting. When Peppermill Records posted the first video for the series, my initial thought was: "Treeplanting? That's Earth Day to a whole new level." But what I found when watching the videos was the same community, hard work and partying that I'd found with the flower children while hitching across different buses... and at Burning Man when working on crew. Needless to say, it's tempting to jump in on this community who help re-forest the planet.

Five parts, just under an hour total.
Schedule I: "No medical value"
My favorite quote from the series comes at the end:
The only difference between a drug and a poison is the dose.
[I'll maintain this post as long as the videos are live]
