    Finally falling into CAN... How could I've overlooked them for so long? I mean, I knew their name, their fame in what so awfully has been called "Krautrock", their influence on Anglo-Saxon musicians and bands like David Bowie, Brian Eno, Talking Heads, Joy Division, Siouxsie and the Banshees...

    And it is not that the avantgarde and progressive music scene in Germany between the mid 1960s to the mid 1970s eluded me, starting with Stockhausen and his pupils (Stockhausen, in a sense, being the godfather of Kraftwerk and Can). But I never really listened to the music of CAN.

    What strikes me with CAN is in part their technical abilities and prowess, notably Jaki Liebezeit (drums), Holger Czukay (bass), Irmin Schmidt (keyboards). These were/are sophisticated musisicans, and it shows (or rather: sounds).

    Listening to only a few records on YT, without having dived into their catalogue of records yet, I'm struck by the immediacy of their play. There is no distance between me as listener and them as musicians on the records. Liebezit's drum is on point, every beat direct, and directly into the ear.

    Listening to younger, more recent productions, with all the emphasis on soundscape, rhythm, basslines, the immediacy of CAN's music is still unreached. CAN's productions are so sophisticated that one can easily forget that their main records are 50 to 60 years old. Timeless. Have a listen.

    The full 300 pages report:

    The Civil Commission on Oct 7th Crimes by Hamas Against Women and Children, "SILENCED NO MORE: Sexual Terror Unveiled: The Untold Atrocities of October 7 and Against Hostages in Captivity" https://www.civilc.org/silenced-no-more .

    After the bestiality of Hamas, after crossing that threshold, no Pali should be surprised that they will never have their own state.

      Sexual violence was ‘systematic, integral’ to Hamas-led October 7 terror assault, study finds
      Rape, sexual torture, mutilation and postmortem sexual abuse found to have been used to 'terrorize' Israeli society, with images of the atrocities 'weaponized' through social media

      The Civil Commission’s Report on Oct 7th Sexual Violence - Silenced NO More
      The most comprehensive investigation to date into the sexual atrocities committed by Hamas on October 7 and during hostage captivity. Based on a uniquely constructed war crimes archive and a two-year independent investigation, the report concludes that Hamas and its collaborators systematically used sexual and gender-based violence as a central component of the attacks and captivity.

    Should there be a founding of a D7 alliance (as proposed by Anders Fogh Rasmussen), then Israel should immediately be invited to join.

    Contrary to the lofty claims of politicians like Alexander Stubb or Mark Rutte that Russia hasn't achieved even one of its war goals set out in December of 2021 by president Putin, it is clear that the destabilisation of NATO by the Trump administration is a major win for Russia.

    Anders Fogh Rasmussen, "An Alliance of Middle-Power Democracies Led by a D7" https://files.gotocon.com/uploads/files/138/d7-formatted_1778445542.pdf

    Arguing for a close alliance of Australia, Canada, the European Union, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea and the United Kingdom as fouding members (security, technology, trade).

    Finally a reasonable proposal to advance an alliance of liberal democracies to counter autocracies (Russia, China) in times when the U.S. is no longer a reliable partner but in destabilizing NATO has handed Russia a major win.

    In the pictures I saw from the parade in Moscow, Putin looks old and exhausted. Very good. May he rot in hell, and with him all his supporters inside and outside Russia who desecrate the victory over Nazi Germany with their triumphalist bestiality in Ukraine. Slava Ukraini!

    Gee, I am really getting old because I find myself enjoying "The Daily Beast" blah blah of Joanna Coles and Michael Wolff as actual entertainment. I mean, I've become a regular reader of the print edition of "The Atlantic", so I shouldn't be that surprised.

    Haunting radio spirits, as if Mikel Laboa met David Byrne and Brain Eno ("My Life in the Bush of Ghosts")

    « I love our places when the fog conceals them to me, when I can't see what it hides. Then is when I begin to unveil the occult...

    Those places that begin to emerge inside me. »

    There is not much time to set the general direction of the use of AI in society. Either Social Democrats, Liberals, Progressives embrace #AI for the sake of the stability of the welfare state, or the xenophobic Right embraces AI to push for anti-immigration policies. Hurry!
