Album: Jerry Goldsmith - Logans Run.

2008-03-04T01:36:00.002Z

Download the album Here

I just stumbled across the soundtrack to this classic film. Its perfect doing-other-things music. Retro-Futuristic sounds mixed with traditional orchestral score of the time. Try it out. Great for busing, browsing and also dangerous trips I guess.

Take a Chance

2008-03-03T16:58:00.004Z

I've been sitting on this site awhile, but seeing as i never plan to use it, you can have it.

Oz-international

It sells R/C in bulk, this stuff is pretty dangerous unless you research properly, but I want somebody to try it.

Clipper Shirt

This was a partial success. It bled and and the colours got a bit muddled, but the effect is ok. I might reprint it properly some time.

Mega-Rich wants Mega-Fame

2008-03-02T22:02:00.004Z

Ok, it's clear that up until now my life has had no direction.
Well, BAM, it hit me the other day that the answer is FAME.
So, from time to time I intend to update you guys with my ongoing attempt to increase my public profile.

Of course any help is more then welcome and you guys can reach me at Dickyowens@gmail.com. Go ahead and help me out by any means you see fit. Maybe by speaking loudly about me in public or by suggesting, again loudly, that I should have played the lead-role in whatever film, when you leave the cinema.

Ok, that's all for now. I have a project i'm starting that I'll update yee about soon.

Richie-Wear

2008-02-27T23:09:00.006Z

So, I've been stenciling shirts, and just messing in general. they're both based on 8-bit sprites(characters) from old games.

This one i did today and I prefer. It's more basic and less painful to look at =)

This one was the result of trying loads of things out, none of which really worked. but, it made it into the blog logo so...

Anyway I've Ebay'd some transfer paper you can print on and just iron onto shirts so I'm very excited about this. I have to get some plainish t-shirts before I can push on. Possibilities are endless!

What's richie working on?

2008-02-23T12:19:00.002Z

Heres a pic of two paintings i'm working on. Not great but calm down, I'm not finished.

O.k, there's gonna be a 3rd piece I think, and the one of the left needs some sort of focus. Neon!

New title Image

2008-02-23T02:50:00.002Z

I put a new blog title image up. Tell me if you like it. It's very new rave, which is how I'm painting at the moment. Well more neon-futuristic then new rave.
Richie the fuck out.

Owens Poems - yes i have not slept

Cockpit.
At default my mind will scan,
Seeking fresh concern and care,
Eating up my precious ram,
Running anti-spyware.

Core Group
This view was narrow, as every person of social mind and a vain disposition believes they themselves to be part of a core. I was tempted to explode this poor attempt at seeming deep into some ramble about orbits within orbits, within orbits, within orbits but my Better Judgment, which is never looked for in the present and never evidenced in hindsight must have, on his way back from some deadly gig where he lost his keys and had to stay with the band, taken a bus strange to him (maybe one of the long bendy ones) and bumped into my Consciousness and being a bit bleary (the scene is tough) made the mistake of agreeing to have lunch with Consciousness at Lemon on Dawson st. That said, judging by the last paragraph he’s probably texting other parts of my brain on the sly. If I had to guess I’d say my Corpus Callosum, they fancy themselves the core and usually only see Consciousness and his mates in the local.

I recommend Lemons Monte Cristo Sandwich, but only when you're feeling flush.

Well Series two is well under way and after a shaky start which i endured for the sake of the series over all plot I've been dumped on. OH, this Maxi guy, really? is that what you're planning.

Episode two is a shit-fest of poorly written dialog (ok, that was never a strong suite)and the promotion of minor characters to sustain a series that seems to be in trouble. I'm really disappointed and reminded of the episodes i tried to forget in the original series.

Ok, I'm being harsh judging series 2 on the first two installments, but fuck, they really have to take a different direction for next couple or at least have Maxi commit slow and painful suicide. Mitch Hewer, I will hunt you down!

This is pretty hot right now, so enjoy this pre-release of Choose Your Own Adventure by 1-2-3 Blastoff. It's nice, relaxed and not overly distorted take on 8bit. enjoy, share.

Vivid Dream

2008-02-15T14:26:00.005Z

(thought it was weird, too much sci-fi is bad for you)

Thomas rose and tried to shake the cobwebs from his mind, soon he realized these are the sort that stick, heavy gauge fellas. 'Ergh...' he muttered as he reached for his last stimupack. His bunk-mate was late, probably got caught with all that contraband, dumb fuck. 'Not his fault' he thought, 'guys brain is mostly crystals by now.'

His speckled complexion was forced on him, in so far as his diet was poor and his work conditions were piss-poor. He knew if laid off the stims a week or two he'd look half decent, but that wasn't an attractive idea considering the crystal-sick cunts who'd jump him. Didn't pay to look good, at least he was clean, relatively.

General Update!

2008-02-15T01:00:00.007Z

OK folks, Lets get going...

~ I broke my little promise =/ I've been wandering briefly among you, which I assure you wasn't my intension. I'm back in hiding until at least Saturday, for Will Pontillos b-day. Sorry.

~ My phone is out of order for now, i left it in DL. But Karen, author of our sister site (Beatspeakie) has been asked to pass on any info. Otherwise Email me.

~ V-Day was dull, I spent it locked outta my house in the morning and painting in the afternoon (I later found out I had my keys the whole time, FUCKSAKEFUCKFUCKFUK). Nothing wild, but I'll try and throw up some pics of my new paintings tomorrow. I'm calling them Tribal-NewRave because I'm a dick.

~ Also very into Audio-books now, they rock when you're doing something dull. I think if anyone talks about them I won't feel right saying I've read them, doesn't seem right =/ They're easy to get on Torrents if you're savvy enough to use 'em. BTjunkie is fight.

Gmail Chat Log

2008-02-06T14:11:00.000Z

The following is a chat i had with Joe, today. It started with a heated argument in a pub about turtles and sharks.

Just gave me an excuse to play with photoshop.

Joe: I may have been confused by Attenboroughs word games.
me: he's senile
Joe: a madman.
not my fault
me: it would be really funny if he's lost it now and just makes up stuff
Joe: and no one dares argue with him!
me: the jellyfish is the last remaining vestige of the cathulu civilization, a large grain fed mass of interconnected brain pods
Joe: Hah. that was on last week along with the gecko marriage.
me: hehe
"the gecko is unique within the animal kingdom. once every cycle a sheriff is elected to patrol the mating grounds. in larger communities a jail is constructed within the community made of wet sand and a enzyme excreted through the glands of the mature males."
Joe: "the females form what is commonly known as a 'fighting wedge', using tulip blossoms as shields and bioluminescent bacteria as red hot spears, they can fight off foes as large as badgers"
me: LOL HAH that.. hah
"the cost of having a regular army take a heavy tole on these unique creatures, resulting in complex class-systems, political structure and the need for constant expansion. "
they're like romans
"the split and studded leather kilt plays an important part....."
Joe: "the brutish badger, sworn enemy of the Gecko colony, act's mostly alone and will often burrow under the gecko colony to whisper bad ideas to the Geckos and basically undermine their ideals whilst also undermining the it's foundations."
me: heh

The Funeral

2008-01-26T13:38:00.000Z

I'm walking with my parents in my national greyhound board suit to a funeral,i have no idea who's funeral it is but lots of people throng the entrance to a large modern mansion style house. I'm smoking like a trooper and stop on occasion to chat to faces from my past. For example I find Vincent from my street only has one leg and we talk for some time about our shared memories. The funeral looks more like a day at the races and moving through the throng I enter pool-house sort of structure thinking it to be the least formal as i can see people lounging on couches watching t.v. inside i find Adam Kutner smoking splifs and chatting to various fucked-up looking people around my age. i say hi we hit it off and he tells me there are pills on the mantle piece for me. i walk into the kitchen and sure enough there are some killer looking yokes in a dish. i take one, realize i shouldn't and spit it out, but it's too late, oh well.i drop my bag and head out to find my parents, i can't miss the ceremony or I'll be in shit. i find them at a marquee drinking champagne. they're going to the food pavilion and i decide not to bother getting food and instead return to the dodgey pool-house. i run into Mick on the way and tell him i can sort him out with some pills back in the weird party. off we go. we return to the dodgey house to find 2 girls there with huge burns on their mouths. and i can tell they're from drinking REALLY hot tea because of the shape. we talk at length about college. the end

oh well, i really went into too much detail. weird though. (fuck capital letters)

No Sleep

Eating well, exercising, feeling crappy. Not really fair is it?
I'm gonna drink green tea and wait for the paper to be delivered.
Fuck it, folks!

Pray for Richie.

London update 2 - Spices and Cards

2008-01-08T14:33:00.000Z

Well i left you last time in dublin airport. well my friends a strange thing happened on the plane, i found a window seat whipped out my book and began to read. A girl of about 18 took a seat in my row, leaving an empty seat betwen us, i thought "great, lotsa space". after 10 minutes or so she asked if she could lie down on the seat beside me, i said "grand". then she asks if she can use my leg as a pillow. i said "er.......grandd....i suppose." this was not grand, this is flagrant abuse of humanities social boundaries.

London Update 1 - Dublin Airport

2008-01-07T13:49:00.000Z

Just checking in here, this is the first leg of my journey.
I arrived on time at the airport but got confused and ended up at my gate(A16)an hour early. I wouldn't mind but I ate a panini and drank a beer REALLY quickly and ran to the gate. OH well, I won't let it dampen my spirits. i'm listening to the radio (106) now and trying to look interesting and maybe slighly spanish. I didn't shave in the hope I'd have that weary traveler look even though i'm just going to London, but sadly I just look a bit dirty and like I might smell.

I'm beside a big Q and a giant man is trying to read this as i type, so bye.

Sticky London Kwicky

2007-12-27T01:13:00.000Z

Rich is due to hit London from the 7th to the 11th. This re-con mission is one of sussing and schmoozing.

I'm ready world, bring on your big lights, hot nights and pink tights, I'm ready!
Assuming i like this place i will of course have to remould my entire image into one more fitting to my new environment (when in Rome...) and so, a huge chunk of this re-con junket will be fashion based. Also i think my hair may need some back combing and whatnot.
Richie is coming Londinium, and he'll fucking 'ave you!

Kite Dream

2007-12-19T13:14:00.002Z

Me, Greg, Ali stein and two girls in a HUGE school-gym making tiny kites out of bits of rubbish. I keep rolling joints but nobody will smoke with me. Suddenly, me and Greg are in Old-Tratford. Mr Hanley leads us to a park bench right on the field and the game begins after that "delilah" song plays live. The bench rotates to follow the ball and I spend ages rolling the last of my weed, but when I go to finish it I have to pick out tomatoes, cucumbers and other salad and whats left isn't really worth smoking.

1. absinthe from some fella called Nick
2. Conner Forla arrived and we sat in a graveyard.
3. Animators quoted things
4. Foy and I made some sort of hot rum thing.

Morning time: lost wallet, had nap, found wallet, went town, had cheapo-chinese in abbey st, e10 all-u-can-eat. nice (Full-House).

Was mildly abusive all night... think it went unnoticed.

p.s: White guys with dreads
p.p.s: Animators like pear cider

Also Backlash is dead in two weeks, Some good memories... some awful ones. We're all "good kids" now, so fuck it.

Richie drops.

2007-12-12T22:32:00.000Z

Richie has hit the button and stuck the pig. He's finished with College till next September. This news comes as a shock i know but is followed by an offer of rooms in London's jewel, Clapham. Can Richie be ready for London? can London be ready for Richie? Choices to be made, but not today.
