journalistic ecosystem, which includes a myriad of sources who are
sometimes buried deep in the background, is more complex than it may
appear on the surface.

Trent Reznor’s GarageBand Release
04/18/2005 10:48 AM“Trent Reznor just did one of the coolest things an artist could
do,” writes C.K. Sample, III, for tuaw.com, “and he did so
in a specifically Apple-centric way. He released Nine Inch
Nails’ new single, The Hand That Feeds, as a 70MB stuffed DMG
file containing the entire song in GarageBand format with a note from
Trent himself.” [Apr 17, 2005]

On
nin.com, Trent
Reznor is offering a complete mix of a song from the forthcoming Nine
Inch Nails album as a Garageband 2.0 file. The CD/vinyl is due out on
May 3. Snip from the README:
"For quite some time I've been interested in the idea of allowing you
the ability to tinker around with my tracks - to create remixes,
experiment, embellish or destroy what's there. I tried a few years
ago to do this in shockwave with very limited results. After spending
some quality time sitting in hotel rooms on a press tour, it dawned on
me that the technology now exists and is already in the hands of some
of you. I got to work experimenting and came up with something I
think you'll enjoy. What I'm giving you in this file is the actual
multi-track audio session for "the hand that feeds" in GarageBand
format. This is the entire thing bounced over from the actual Pro
Tools session we recorded it into. I imported and converted the
tracks into AppleLoop format so the size would be reasonable and the
tempo flexible."

astronaut, Pedro Duque writes "I am writing these notes in
the Soyuz with a cheap ballpoint pen. Why is that important? As it
happens, I've been working in space programmes for seventeen years,
eleven of these as an astronaut, and I've always believed, because
that is what I've always been told, that normal ballpoint pens don't
work in space... and here I am, it doesn't stop working and it doesn't
'spit' or anything. Sometimes being too cautious keeps you from
trying, and therefore things are built more complex than
necessary." From
Snopes:
Fisher spent over one million dollars in trying to perfect the ball
point pen before he made his first successful
pressurized
pens in 1965, which NASA uses.

Marley's 'Legend' turns twenty:
"Legend'' is unique because it's become more than just
music. It's an idea, a lifestyle, a web of cultural touchstones spun
in a delicate vortex. In the realm of
musical-taste-as-statement-of-personal-identity, "Legend''
says: I generally care about world events. I favor cotton clothing. I
think stress is bad. I want to stop injustice. I'm all for love. I
wouldn't say no to the herb, if you get my drift.

It turns out that Shimane Prefecture has a legend called Tale
of Kunibiki according to which gods created Japan by
pulling lands from far
over the sea. So Japan was created out of scraps stolen
from other countries?
This shameless legend is interesting from engineering point of view
but also offers
a glimpse of the mentality behind Shimane assemblymen who, no
doubt, grew up with
the lengend.
I better alert Homeland Security Department to watch out for ropes
around Hawaiian
islands.

Mizuka just asked me if I had heard about some guy who was busted
for making tons of money trading stocks who claims to be a
time-traveler. The story was that he would show them the time-machine
if they let him go. She said her Japanese friends were talking about
it. I laughed and checked Google News with an assortment of keywords
with no results. I wandered over to #joiito
. Soon enough nichlas came up with a link to
a WWN article from March, 2003 about the story. Just as I was
wondering if this was something to blog about, KevinMarks page-slapped
us with the snopes.com entry
from April 2003 debunking the story.
I would really love to see the path that this silly story took over
the last 1 1/2 years to get from WWN to me via the Japanese girls
gossip network.

The Legend of the HTTP_REFERER
Misspelling
07/21/2004 08:14 PMHTTP/1.1: Header Field Definitions: Did you ever wonder why the
HTTP_REFERER header is missspelled? (You did know that "referrer" is actually
spelled with two "r"'s, right?)
It turns out that the misspelling harkens back to the HTTP spec, as
linked above.
That link is to the 1.1 spec, but in a fit of curiosity, I went
looking to see how far back the misspelling went. The earliest I
found it was in RFC
1945 from June 1996. Can anyone document it earlier than
this?

Xeni Jardin:
Following up on last week's BoingBoing post about a vintage, X-rated,
Disney-inspired comic for auction on eBay (
Link to post), BoingBoing reader Mercutio writes:
An entry on LJ prompted me to look at Boing Boing entry concerning the
sale of Disney parody/porn on Ebay. Thought you'd appreciate knowing
that Disney animators actually made an orgy scene using characters
from Snow White.
I once worked at Facets Multimedia, an art movie house in Chicago.
During the mid 1980s, I attended a lecture by famous animator Seamus
Culhane. Mr. Culhane had worked for Fleischer, Disney and Warner
Brothers at different times. And he was an animator on Snow
White. (Mr. Culhane was fired by Walt Disney for trying to
organize an independent union - but that's another
story.)
During his talk, Mr. Culhane was asked if there had ever been any porn
created that was like the famous picture from The Realist
[Ed. Note: the "Disney porn" image auctioned last week on
eBay]. He answered that, yes, the work was so long that the
animators got bored and created very explicit orgy scene sketches and
cells. He further said that when Walt Disney heard what was going on,
he personally hunted down and burned all of the objectionable
material.
Thought you'd like to hear this story. I don't know if Mr. Culhane or
any other animators were ever quoted in a new source about this
episode in Disney history.

The Legend of Dixie Square Mall
The Legend of Dixie Square Mall
04/19/2005 03:47 AM
Dixie
Square Mall , in the mostly-blighted "
inner ring" Chicago suburb of
Harvey, Illinois, opened
in 1966. It suffered gradual decline, until it closed in 1978. A
year later, film crews gave the mall a brief makeover and
Jake and Elwood Blues drove through the place. Then,
nothing. For 20-plus years, the mall sat and decayed.
Renovation plans (even a planned
baseball stadium for the White Sox) were
popular over the
years, but never panned out. In 1993,
a rape and murder took place in the JC Penney's
space.
From
space, the mall looks beat up. From the ground, it
looks
even
worse
. Human fascination with deserted space has borne a
number of websites<
/a> and spelunking trips (along with
some
excellent then-and-now comparisons
), and a
documentary is
apparently in the works. Finally, at long last,
there
's renewed
hope for the site. Previously seen here and
here.
