1. explore the universe
2. save the planet
3. create wild shit



maybe we should have a division here:

the people who are into organizing stuff
and
the people who have no interest in organizing anything


obviously these 2 regions criss-cross (like the left and right sides of the brain)

but would make for a interesting forum development


maybe we already have that here with the BIP forum


i think the only specific project that was mentioned over the past months was the Suburban Book of the Dead

other than that, its a multimedia free-for-all


itd be fun to toy around with being better organized tho

Its an important distinction.

projects: developing new editions of BIP
               The Machine
               The CoN
               Lollercaust
               SBOTD
               Possible volume of a more esoteric leaning
               meme bombing
               O:MF generally
               Propaganda distribution
               Multi-media stuff (courtesy of Ear Fatigue)
               Other


contrary to the received few that we're a bunch of miscreant asshats who need to spend more time out in sunlight, we actually have a lot of creative irons in the fire.

What we really need in this forum is a full time thread miner. The nature of these fucking boards is that the ideas flow so thick and so fast that many really good ones get forgotten about in the avalanche. Another tactic that works for me is not to wait or even try to get approval for something until after you've done it. Because if you were to say something along the lines of "I was thinking of making a song based on one of so and so's rants whaddya think?" there'd almost inevitably be a huge thread with everybody arguing over how best to do it and throwing their own thoughts and ideas into the mix. Then there'd be the inevitable threadjack and within as little as a day or two the original idea would be long forgotten. Just do it, post it then, if there's any feedback, modify it. Remember - someone is more likely to buy into the idea of you using their intellectual property for a pet project if you can show them the end result when you're asking.

Incidentally - I'll restate for the new blood. My intellect is public domain. If I post something on this board I'm throwing it out to the internets. Anyone wants to use it for anything then you have my blessing. If it sucks then I might mock you a bit but more often than not when something like this happens I'm kinda flattered. (doesn't happen that often - prolly due to my use of low grade intellect)

Speaking of which, if anyone is any good at creating video, please feel free to grab any of my audio bits and do something visual to go along w/ it, & stick it on YouTube.

OOOOOH!  Obviously I need to download the audio bit and have someone tape me lip-synching it, and then SillyCybin can play with *THAT*!  That'd be, like, double creepy! :D :D :D

Fuck yeah - that'll work. Why don't you actually say out loud another one or two while you're at it?
