schwarzenegger-inspired metal: austrian death machine

Half your brain is melt into killing the flu you’ve just received after the yearly “we’ve seriously revamped the devilish concoction now” flu injection, and Gargaj just killed the other half with the one and only, yet terrific vide of Austrian Death Machine entitled Get to the Choppa.

Now mind you, I know you haven’t read my trip report on the Nippon Connection 2008 yet (because only one-third is online, I know I have a few things backlagging) but most of my communication was with Marty, guitarist of cyberpunk metal band New Project, who from time to time (hourly) decided to practice his Arnie impersonation on me, one key sentence focused on the fucking chopper we need to get to? Right. The ADM video is entitled Get to the choppa (noticed the ork spelling?) and if this is not enough for you, their album Total Brutal sports tracks like I am a Cybernetic Organism, Living Tissue Over (Metal) Endoskeleton, Come With Me if You Want to Live or If It Bleeds, We Can Kill It. And by the way, it was done by Tim Lambesis of As I Lay Dying, being “a tribute to the great Arnold movies. It is a band fronted by Ahhnold with music I wrote and recorded in my free time.” 

And seeing the tour dates, people just don’t get it.

Ectoplasmosis always has the weirdiest, tentacly links for your daily pleasure to freak out your fellow workers and friends. This time, a new LEGO scene. (And, by the way, merry October for you, pussies.)

digestive system, out the window

Gyorsan visszakötünk az előző napok tabasco/habanero-szószos ebédjéhez, itt a bizonyító értékű kép. Dawe gyomra itt lépett rá biztosan a pokol haragosan cseresznyepiros útjára, én fél nappal megelőztem, a verseny immár nem arról szól, hogy melyikünk tud csípősebbet enni, hanem hogy melyikünk tud kevesebb időt bentlenni a belgyógyászaton (vagy ahogy elnézem magunkat, a traumatológián), ha már bekerültünk.

pikachu circuit bending, devilish fun

It’s been a few months that I last posted anything about circuit bending. It’s been yesterday that I wreaked havoc on the entire office with the bodymod Pikachu and its clone brothers, all of them being musical instruments. Behind all the amygdala-wrenching fun is Japanese circuit bender Kaseo, check his amazing video feed, I’ve only posted two pieces of gritty wisdom, the Bent Pikachu Limited Edition being so much on par with the Furby torture scene.

Just when you thought Friday couldn’t get any more rabid than this.

cubo.cc: like a fruitfly on rohypnol

cubo.cc’s morphing Flash technology is also visible on motionportrait. you’ll also fuck up your time generously watching a mildly retarded Japanese girl following your cursor with the interest of a fruitfly on rohypnol. (yes, link)

And after Long Pig and The City ads, this all looks very weirdly Transmetropolitan. New hate couture!

The television skies of Chiba City branded his brains in 1992. He hasn't recovered fully since. Re-wired his brain with a few years of FastTracker, hosted radio shows on the first .hu netradio for 4 years, went on to broadcast radio for another two. Worked on the absurd radio series Kónuszék, that actually led him to become a script writer for the multiple-award winning animation Nyócker.

Started LD50 in 2001, an alternative community portal for some, a media experiment for him. DJ'd and organized for 6 years @ Budapest: the first weekly gothic/industrial clubnights, the VK/jrock Nippon Shoxx and the biggest local industrial/cyber party series called Kollektíva, among many. Key figure behind the cyberpunk PDF magazine THE DOSE and he's making a comeback with it.

He's currently an IT/science journalist, with a love for weird stuff, Asian cuisine, pop culture, energy drinks, coffee and chili, eyecandy, Japan and a life-long devotion to all things cyberpunk & slipstream.
