Pale Blue Poem
doodlewhale:
Mars is all Red,
Earth is Pale Blue,
Look close that dot,
For on it sits you.
On the 14th February 1990 Voyager 1, having completed its primary mission, turned around to looked back at us and took this humbling image of the Earth.
‘A mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam’ - Carl Sagan
My God - there’s some noise in that photo! (obsessive, much?)
Happy Valentine’s...

– Is what I got asked by rääm on Flork, and I suppose it’s a point of consternation for quite a few people, because I get asked similar questions quite a lot. Therefore I felt it time to put the record straight, from my end at least, to this matter, so we can all get on with taking our...

What the Higgs 'harmonic signatures' may sound... →
So, it bascially sounds like Delia Derbyshire saw (heard?) this coming a long way off? Just to show how far ahead of its time the Radiophonic Workshop really was!
wilwheaton:
Researchers have simulated the sound of the Higgs Boson and other sub-atomic collisions in the Large Hadron Collider.
You must listen to this. Seriously. It’s really cool.

Day 2 of Age of Rockets recording.
This time it was for a weirdo acoustic track. Not really what the album will sound like at all. Song is super not done. It seems obvious to me that it’s not done but if you are not someone who records music you might not know what a half finished...

Long night making Sweethearts even sweeter...
I’m getting somewhere near, this might actually be my first project related post…
freeboprich.com is nearing something like a cohesive state, a bit more complete looking now, with space for another gallery for when I want to add to it.
But the Deviant Art portfolios really are showing their limitations. I can understand the need for a concise body of work to heighten interest and...

Bye bye, dark and creepy...
Hello bright and fancy! Yeah, ok so I’ll be toning down the repressive darkness - it’s not really me anyway, i just assumed it made pictures easier to see. As much as I like the background now, it’s a bit… generic - I guess you have to get a paid theme to play with things like that (somewhen I’ll have a portfolio and blog to match, how about that?). Anyhow, bright...

Comments on Universal Population, Douglas Adams
“It is known that there is an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the universe can be said to be...

"Gotta Start Somewhere"
I might not have anything to offer you,
I might not have anything to say that’s new.
I’ll continue in the hopes I have a follow up,
And if I do then you might not ever shut me up.”
