Pieced Orb, 2011-12.
I realized I never posted a photo of the finished piece! This four-panel painting took a year to make (with a 6 month pause in the middle!). The overall piece (40”x40”) is difficult to capture in a photo; details work much better.

The Political Economy of Pipelines: A Century of Comparative Institutional Development makes privatization pithy and plumbs the depths of an industry’s regularity.

You could probably add “[person] starts drinking heavily” in between each step here, but this is pretty accurate! I would only add “/needs tenure” in the first step to cover academic publishing.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4lhh3TWoT1qa0uujo1_500.png)

It’s a sign of how fantastic an EP it is that cutting this great song from Armor On was actually a good decision. Still, this makes a lovely bonus track to the best thing I’ve heard so far this year.

Ooo, looky what just landed on my doorstep with a thud! This is one hefty tome, and I’m extremely excited to read it once my eyes uncross themselves from having stared at the cover for too long.
The book’s already won me over with its back cover author bio: “Sergio de la Pava is a writer who does not live in Brooklyn.”
Also: does this photo look blurry because I took it with coffee hands? Or is it because YOUR EYES are going crazy too?
WANT. This is out now? Must cop.
[full disclosure: I used to work for the publisher, though I had nothing to do with this one]
I’m about 250 pages into this and it is SO GOOD.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3gm134KuP1qz7u53o1_500.jpg)

My homegirl Jess (Jubilee) just put me on to this and within seven seconds I was IMing her in ALL CAPS. Not that that’s all that out of the ordinary but I was, specifically, IMing her “HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER HEARD” not just because it’s got house diva vocals (my forever weakness) by Elisabeth Troy, but because the junglist production is THE ILLEST and it’s done by a woman, B. Traits (the cute white lady with the Erin Featherston ca. 2004 hair), which is still rarrrreeeeeeeeeeee outchea. THOSE CHORDS! SHOUT TO B. TRAITS AND ELISABETH TROY, and also entrez-vous, dnb!!
Wowee.
WAIT I DIDNT REBLOG THIS YET?? WHAT
I saved my reblog for the morning because I knew it was gonna make my day better. I was right!
WUT WUT WUT WUT
Yet another reason to hate exams - because of studying, I heard this now, instead of just over a week ago, when I could give it the [9] or [10] it so rightly deserves and help it break into the over-[7.00] range at Jukebox.
This is pure bliss.
Certified JAM.
Also, why is this not available on iTunes or anywhere in North America? UGH. The worst thing about loving UK Dance is how long it takes to get a NA release - we’ll have 400 ‘cover’ ‘tribute’ etc. versions on iTunes by random other people and all I want is to get money to the people making this awesome music that I love. Sigh.
Finally got around to listening to this—and it’s great!—only to be frustrated by the exact same annoying “tribute” mp3 phenomenon.
