Learning and Reimagining the Tarot: Introduction

By Giania • Jan 13th, 2010 • Category: Featured

Hot:

The premise behind this project is very simple:

Choose a Tarot card (only shuffling for the first draw).
Dissect the visuals on the card and write down their most basic symbolic elements (from opinion/personal preference).
Look up details of that Tarot card from tarot books, 777 and other cross-cultural references.
Create a visual and/or written interpretation of the card.

By Giania • Oct 11th, 2009 • Category: Fnord

Hot:

As a retrospective I’ve decided to dump (nearly) every picture I took. There’s a mix of travel photos, some repeat photos from previous posts, and photos of Portland. Click on the thumbnails below for the big version. And the photo on the detail page for the extra big version.
Also I just remembered that the first [...]



why your social media guru is an asshole & a liar OR how to succeed (or not) with your internet presence

By Giania • Jun 30th, 2009 • Category: Internet Tools

Hot:

Author’s Note: Some editing may apply to the article below. This article was originally 2 hours worth of unedited vitriol, inspired by the inordinate amount of time it takes me to remove spammers from my follower list on Twitter. (I block because I care about the health of the network.) I would like to state [...]



The Craigslist Posting That Will Almost Certainly Never Be

By Giania • Jun 23rd, 2009 • Category: Fnord

Hot:

Disclaimer-by-way-of-Prologue – I sat down and thought to myself: “Suppose I was to solicit some kind of bodily coupling through something like craigslist, in an area where these kind of services are clearly not at their peak usefulness?” This is the result of that thought process. (I may have also been letting my mind wander [...]



Dream Log: A Chat with David Bowie

By Giania • Mar 30th, 2009 • Category: Dream Log

Hot:

Technically I had way more interesting dreams over the weekend, and there was much more to the dream from which this exceprt is from, but dreaming a conversation with David Bowie, however cursory, is fucking sweet and I felt I should share.
I was walking through a corridor and came through a door to a mostly [...]



Get Your Shit Together

By AmHm • Dec 10th, 2008 • Category: Guides

Hot:

Look, anyone who knows me can attest to the idea that, I’m probably not the most put-together person on the planet. In fact, my inability to get organized, and my all-star procrastinator status really gives me little credibility when it comes to telling you what to do. However, in the past six months, I’ve been [...]

Two Podcasts I <3

By fragmad • Oct 16th, 2008 • Category: Audio

Hot:

This is a quick entry with short descriptions of two podcasts I love, adore and recommend to most people. Mostly because I’ve cut down my listening to podcasts since I finished my work placement a year ago. But these are two of about 15 that survived the cut.
Science is the most important thing in our [...]

By fragmad • Sep 29th, 2008 • Category: Literature

Hot:

You are hiding behind a stone wall being shot at by heavily armed cultist. You have had two weeks of training to deal with situations like this. But you’re only just starting to remember this. You know you should feel angry that people are shooting at you. But you consider that they would shoot at [...]



RKNet: The potential hitatus

By Giania • Aug 23rd, 2008 • Category: Recursion

Hot:

Next week, as dictated by The Ad Contrarian, is SHUT THE FUCK UP WEEK. Or as he elects to (more diplomatically) call it “Worldwide No Blogging Week“. It’s intended to span August 25th through September 1st.
I for one, will be observing this. It just so happens that I’m taking this time off work as [...]
