  • Dick Vaughn’s Video Perfect Cut

    Dick Vaughn’s Video Perfect Cut

    Apparently never previously released, this is mesmerising view of Dick Vaughn aka Richard Lyons performing ‘Perfect Cuts’ and perfect dancing in a mall in California. Somehow I know that thousands of millennials are trying to recreate this madness on their computers for a ‘perfect 80’s’ feel, and failing…have to do it live, baby! (via Negativland)

    Cassetteboy vs Jeremy Hunt

    Love this – and as I’ve said on my Twitter and FB – I support the Junior Doctors and hate this scaremongering about ‘deaths’ – you’ll receive FAR better care today than you would on a normal day when the over-worked junior doctors are pulling long shifts without cover from consultants and GPs.

Choosing to eat at Nandos only and always wearing a KFC tshirt when you do, is a lifestyle. Reading comics and watching sci-fi is a lifestyle. Being a homophobe and/or going…

    The Art of Atari

    I’m not sure if today’s generation realise the wonder of arcade and home console/computer game art, travelling into a world of Chris Foss and pulp sci-fi covers crossed with D&D fantasy, cutesy pop art and plain Robert Crumb psychedelic strangeness. The thrill of seeing new worlds, and being able to travel to them on your…
