sting in DUNE
just watched DUNE again – 1984 can you believe that was when it came out. Worth a watch if you haven’t seen it in awhile.

written and directed by David Lynch, based on the 1965 Frank Herbertnovel of the same name.

lost at sea by jon ronson
just finished “Lost at Sea” by jon ronson and highly recommend it. Short(ish) articles on subjects ranging from clairvoyance to pedophilia – the case of Jonathan King being quite interesting in light of the institutional child abuse that has been revealed within the BBC and “entertainment” world.

A beach book for sure.

music with animals – turkeys, wolves and panda whales

off to buy this beauty.
On this one-of-a-kind record, Jim Nollman showcases his experiments with “interspecies communication.” Using a variety of instruments and vocalizations, Nollman improvises with turkeys, wolves, and orcas. The interactions are sometimes funny, often surprising, and always fascinating. The liner notes include essays by Nollman on his environmental theories and experiences trying to communicate with animals.
