In honor of the events that are transpiring in Egypt right now, I’m posting up an album with an apt title. Here’s Sly & The Family Stone’s excellent 1971 album, There’s a Riot Goin’ On.

Learn Something Today

I find this interesting. I would try it but I’m in NYC and would probably make it 5 steps blindfolded before getting hit by a cab.

Penguin in Peru

Who knew Humbolt Penguins are running around the wild with personalities like house trained dogs?

I want to put this little guy in my pocket and take him around.

This is dedicated to a very special lady who is moving on to greener pastures today. I hope she enjoys the 1977 classic, (and my favorite Bowie album) Low.

Jodorowsky’s Dune: The epic that was never made

In 1976 cult Chilean filmmaker, Alejandro Jororowsky, was slated to direct an adapatation of Frank Herbert’s SciFi epic, Dune. Following the release of his mystical Western ‘El Topo’ (1970) and the more psychedelic ‘Holy Mountain’, Jodorowsky attempted to bring ‘Dune’ pto life, garnering talented artists including the French comics artist Moebius, the Swiss artist H.R. Giger (who made the iconic design in ‘Alien’), the British sci-fi artist Chris Foss and the British band Pink Floyd, who would provide the soundtrack. Among Jodorowsky’s rumored cast were Orson Welles, Mick Jagger  and Salvador Dali as Emperor Shaddam IV. Not being able to get the money to produce the movie the way he wanted, Jodorowsky abandoned the project. All that survives of this project is Jodorowsky’s extensive notes, and the production drawings of Moebius, Giger and Foss.
