Welcome To Sibyl's blog
He played Scrabble on Facebook almost the entire time; I learned some Scrabble tricks. He would alternate between that and writing on his food blog. I don’t even know if he remembers what our album sounds like.
Cloud Nothings’ Dylan Baldi talks about working with famed studio man Steve Albini. (via pitchfork)

A public beach in Malibu with few amenities for the public: Dan Blocker County Beach has been in Los Angeles County’s hands since 1995 but remains hard to reach via a steep bluff. A Malibu councilman wants the city to take it over, but the county says no.

“Neil Harbisson introduces himself as the first cyborg ever legally recognized by any Government (2004). He was born colour-blind; so he can only see in black and white (Achromatopsia disorder).
An electronic device implanted in his neck allows him to translate colours into sounds. The camera that hangs from his forehead 24/7 was accepted as part of his British passport photo. By that very fact, the camera became congenital and not prosthetic to his body anymore. Thanks to it, light frequencies are captured and translated into sound frequencies by the chip, which in turn sends them to his brain. He literally listens to colours with his electronic eye.
A standard eye perceives light, tone and saturation. Harbisson’s organic eyes perceive light, but tone is converted into sound, and saturation into volume through his third eye.”

Great Bustard (Otis tarda)
from Naumann’s Naturgeschichte der Vögel Mitteleuropas (1905), artist: Peter v. Sengbusch
* It breeds in southern and central Europe, where it is the largest species of bird, and across temperate Asia. European populations are mainly resident, but Asian birds move further south in winter. The male of this huge bird is possibly the heaviest living flying animal, alongside the similarly sized Kori Bustard… (read more: Wikipedia)
