Roberta Gregory at Ink and Pixels

My Ink and Pixels, over at Tablet this week, is running my piece on Roberta Gregory. I should have the transcript (mostly) up tomorrow.

I also have a review of the Mexican indie flick Japon up here.

Next week in Ink and Pixels are some comics reviews and a review of the Slide Rule performance night in late October that was held at the Hugo House. After that… well, it’s a secret for now.

Y2Karl on Bob on Blonde on Blonde

MeFi’s y2karl does his usual amazing thing with The Annotated Blonde On Blonde, setting my musical agenda for the day – Visions of Johanna is fighting for bitwidth versus a backup on my firewire bus at this very moment – Not incidentally, he reminds me, in a week where the world finds itself less one sensitive musical savant, beloved by his community, there remain others.

One of whom has an open offer for a beer, again, on the table. You know who you are.

Bellerophon update

I was finally able to get both Wallstreets to boot into OSX yesterday. Long story short, the CPU in the machine that’s been working hard serving the website for the past year-or-so is displaying signs of heat damage, and freezes, every time, when one attempts to install OSX from CD.

So I installed from CD after swapping the CPU card for the new one from the more recently arrived machine.

More tinkering yet required, of course. Just making note of it.
