Movement Through Thought on has changed its timeslot. It now starts 30 minutes earlier, which is... 30 minutes from now. Every Friday 06:00 to 07:00 UTC.

Tonight's show will be #105, which I think makes it the first of year 3. I'm too tired to do anything special, so I've lined up some ambient and downtempo. Slow-ish stuff.

Megaphysics and I are playing music at Ground Kontrol arcade in tonight. Music starts at 9:00 PM, games are set to free play, $7 cover, 21 and over.

I'm doing my usual electro and a bit of drum & bass tonight. I think I'm taking the second timeslot, so I'll start around 11:30 PM.

Maybe it'll snow overnight again.

What's in the box? What's in the box?

Curiosity killed the cat and it certainly would have you if you had followed your impulse to open it. You did very well to call me when you did.

Yes, I know. But what's in it?

You have been misnamed, Gabriel. You should have been called Pandora.

If the darkness and corruption leave a vestige of the thoughts that once we had...

Well, you are awake. Lie still. Why torment yourself? Who would you see? Someone you do not know. A stranger. What is it we are seeking? Diamonds? Rubies? Gold? Perhaps narcotics? How civilized this earth used to be. But as the world becomes more primitive, its treasures become more fabulous.

You want to avenge the death of your dear friend. How touching. How Sweet! How nicely it justifies your quest for the great whatsit.

Why don't you leave, Mike. Before I change my mind.

They. A wonderful word. And who are they? They are the nameless ones who kill people for the great whatsit. Does it exist? Who cares. Everyone everywhere is so involved in the fruitless search for what?

Drinking tea at 2 AM. My sleep schedule's messed up again.

Mix is OK; good tracks. "Mind Travel Method" and "Out Of Bounds" are two favorites of mine, worth calling out. A solid hour of in any case.

Trouble leaned against the heavy display top, watched the menu flashing under her elbows. This is what she hated most about the on-line world, the shadows as much as the bright lights of the legal nets: too many men assumed that the nets were exclusively their province, and were startled and angry to find out that it wasn't.

Melissa Scott, Trouble And Her Friends, page 120 of the Tor hardcover.

I plan to follow up and read Scott's "Dreamships" and "Dreaming Metal" at some point, hopefully this year. Neither are connected to "Trouble", but seem to have a similar attitude.

I read the first ~50 pages of "Dreamships" in a bookstore and liked it well enough.

I finished Melissa Scott's "Trouble And Her Friends" a few days ago. My first time through the book. It's very '90s cyberpunk. First publication 1994, my copy says. So a few years after Cadigan's Synners.

I liked it and would recommend it if you're interested in the style. Worth reading, for sure.

Snow has arrived in Forest Grove. I'm skeptical it'll stick past morning.

It does look nice outside, though.
