ihdThe Dutch may know world-class weed, but they sure don’t know shit about coffee. (This leaves a SXE blogger seriously stranded on the shores of the Devil’s asshole.) Welcome back, gorgeous thrillseekers, this night finds us all behind the wheels again with the seatbelts responsibly sawed off and cauterized. The past few days found me in the Maastricht headquarters of EJC on a conference with speakers like the charming Ingrid Hu Dahl (left) or Prof Anne Balsamo who still rocks the academic crowd with her hardcore gender-specific cyberpunk stuff, suitably tailored to the 2000s (without the Mondo vibe, that is). (And I actually love her idea about how they experiment with the concept of the future classroom in Los Angeles where they have Google Jockeys who actually spread realtime web searches during the lectures on four separate giant screens. She is a huge harvester of the essence of ROCK.)

In related news, Death Beat Club (the collection of my previous writings in Hungarian) will continue with the series of my thesis on the representation of the body in the works of William Gibson, just spare me some time and I will post all the relevant content you guys have kindly offered me. I’ll be implementing a separate feed for you as well, just got the technical specs for that. I’m busy working on a new bilingual community site project right now that’s going to be launched sometime this year and no, that’s not The Dose. So for all of you, it’s on.

    Admitted, most Dutch don’t know, understand or value coffee, but to say we don’t know anything about coffee… While in Maastricht you should’ve tried one of the Coffeelovers branches. So far I’ve hardly ever been disappointed by them! ;-) Hope you had a nice stay/time in NL nonetheless! (:

    I am sooo ready to reconsider that but trust me, what I had in Maastricht didn’t really get me to work with a mental erection of the journalistic sort :) ) Coffeelovers, gotta try that next time! NL was fun, have to Amsterdam the next time! (And then you guys should join the massif fun torrent!)

    can you be a bit more specific on the technical specs of this separate feed? i was planning stg like that, but gave up (mostly because i was too lazy and had other things to do).

    also i’d love to hear more about that new community site project.
