The Internet Is Magic

I love the internet and I love simple ways of collecting my favorite things about the internet. In addition to assorted curiosities, I'll likely feature three chord songs for struggling guitarists, simple recipes for incompetent/aspiring cooks and reflections on whatever media I'm consuming at the moment.

Most people don’t care about politics. They’re not running around with these preformed opinions in their head. They worry about what they’ll make for dinner and how to get their kids to bed. And that hasn’t changed. For us, that’s an alien world. We think about politics all the time. But we’re not normal. The 24-hour news cycle has not really affected the average American who isn’t into politics. And that’s really important to remember.

Lynn Vavreck, a political scientist at UCLA, in an interview with Ezra Klein about ” the tornado of idiocy that is American politics.” (via theatlantic)

DRAWING APPARATUS by Robert Howsare 

Spirograph-like drawing machine constructed with two turntables:

The revolution of the records create drawings that serve as a markers of temporality.  The drawings also speak to the idea of the editionable print through their ability to be replicated using domestic materials.
