Who knows, maybe one trackback could surprise you one day… I can’t imagine what you would find in Karl Marx’s bag!

Hey Alabaster,
Just wanted you to know that I am a big fan, as I have been reading the blog incessantly. Check out my blog and let me know if you ever want to discuss politics, Marxism, Phillip K. Dick, or even why the grass is green or the sky black.
Thanks,
Jonesy

what’s a magic love light box?

The magic love light box was a birthday present from two dear friends. In essence, it’s a small round cardboard box with leaves, wires, sequins, bits of metal, bits of sack cloth and paint inside, a small glass bead and a green net over the front. Inside is also a starshaped piece of clear plastic. Coming out of the back is a wire leading to a small button that says ‘Alex: Press for Love’.
When you press the button, the star shaped thing lights up flashing in lots of different colours.
If that ain’t cool, I don’t wanna be cool no more.
And hi jonesy, glad you’re enjoying the shambolic mess that is this small theoretical space. The ride’s bumpy of late, but don’t worry, it’s always interesting. Or something.
Be well.
