nocturnal research dept.: March 2015

http://nocturnalresearch.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 8, 2015. Hand tool project no.2: knock-down slab desk. This project started with a beautiful redwood slab, salvaged from a from a fallen tree in a creek bed by Anderson's Alternatives. Definitely worth a visit when in Mendocino, CA! After considering several fancier approaches, I decided on a caveman version of an arts-and-crafts design to complement the slab. I was inspired by the furniture in the San Francisco Swedenborgian Church. Are redwood, purchased from Fairfax Lumber. I left a lot ...

nocturnal research dept.: November 2012

http://nocturnalresearch.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html

Tuesday, November 27, 2012. Lee Ving, Frankie Fix, and musicals about delinquents. I liked Fabulous Stains a lot too, though it's much grittier, substituting gray rust-belt wastelands for neon-lit soundstages. The chasm between the music Lane sang in Fabulous Stains and Streets of Fire was dizzying. From '77-style punk and proto-Beat Happening in the former, to Bonnie Tyler-style power ballads just 2 years later. Out the side of my face! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Jeff Wagner's Tunnel of Love.

nocturnal research dept.: Dead RIder.

http://nocturnalresearch.blogspot.com/2014/07/dead-rider.html

Thursday, July 31, 2014. Dead Rider's performance at Bottom of the Hill last night was simply ecstatic. I think their records are great, odd dub productions that sound something like a combination of PiL and Prince, but I was unprepared for their tightly orchestrated live set. Todd Rittmann was possessed, theatrical and provoking, and all the ferocious rhythms, potent vocal harmonies, melting synths, disorienting basslines, casually brilliant, spidery guitar outbursts.aggh! That's how it's done.

nocturnal research dept.: September 2013

http://nocturnalresearch.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html

Monday, September 23, 2013. I recently discovered some startling creations in wood dating from the first decade of the 20th century. These objects seem Arts-and-Crafts-inspired, but stranger, as if their sensuous forms are ready to writhe and prowl back into the woods. Click images to enlarge). Charles Rohlfs, 1901. Charles Rohlfs, 1900. Charles Rohlfs, 1901. Reginald Machell, 1905-10. Reginald Machell, 1905-10. So far I've found few images or fleshed-out details about either artist on the world wide web...
