Tell me that spam *isn't* some coded Al Queda message hiding in plain sight?

The Transformer auction was fun. I heard there was a lot of bad behavior, but I was oblivious - totally focussed on the piece that I wanted - and I got it. It's a sweet little work on paper by Travis Childers. Little swatches of flesh cut from magazines. I'll try to post a picture of it soon. I don't remember seeing his work before, but Philip Barlow says he saw some work at Warehouse and it was also really cool.

Speaking of the auction and the Warehouse, I ran into Glenn Dixon. We had a fun chat about video games, and he mentioned that he's doing sort of a performance piece at Warehouse next week:

Thank you for your kind attention. And special thanks to those who came to the JOHN HODGMAN extravaganza at the Warehouse Theater in October and made themselves available to this mailing.

Though you may not wish to hear it, there will be yet another episode of the F.W. Thomas Performances to take place MONDAY NOV. 13, at 7:30 PM, at the Warehouse Theater.

We hope you will come and experience the artistic and/or literary vibrations of:

"David" Glenn Dixon, sharing a personal (and A/V-enhanced) "trek" into the music of Leonard Nimoy.

Matthew Summers-Sparks, a/k/a Ol' Sparky, reading fiction. Did you know he recently wrote about secret rooms for the New York Times?

T.M. "Mike" Lowery, presenting scenes from a marriage through the sheer veil of the cartoon form.

And "Yours Truly," Adam Mazmanian, who promises to defend his chosen hairstyle using examples from ancient Egyptian Art.

There will be beer and other drinks for sale. You will need them. Art will be bought and sold. Special guests may be summoned as if from thin air.

Please inform your friends, colleagues, and acquaintances to plan to attend the event that the literary press has termed, "D.C.'s most comprehensive multimedia performance evening."

The Warehouse Theater is located at 1017-1021 7th Street NW. It is a short and not altogether unpleasant walk from the Chinatown/Gallery Place Metro. Phone is 202-783-3933. Admission is still only three freaking dollars (US). Proceeds go to the F.W. Thomas Memorial Moo Goo Gai Pan Fund.

If you plan to attend, please let us know at: http://upcoming.org/event/123892

So checkit.

So Glenn and I were comparing notes about Will Wright's upcoming game Spore. One of the cool things about it is that it generates everything procedurally. That made me think of a short computer animation I saw years ago called Panspermia. It was one of the first simulations that used precedural methods to generate flora. There are MPEGs included in a big collection of SIGGRAPH animation at the Internet Archive.
