Staff Biographies
"Giving well is the best
revenge." |
The First Rule of Religion
Oh dear. Here goes Harriet Lobdell wading deep into the old muddy waters of pious
hypocrisy, or is it hypocritical piety? Whichever, she
pulls no mixed-metaphor agnostic punches.

Koi Paraga?
Gently manipulated images of the Byzantine Fresco
Chapel combined with one pretty insistent midi (2:26).

Dark Canon
Jerden Purmort, using the clever analytical tools of modern
cosmology and astrophysics finds a way out of the
present cultural morass.

ARMAGEDDON!
RU Ready???
In yet another free cultural public service, Magellan's Log offers a short checklist so you can be sure you are prepared
for the coming End Times.

Oil Patch Sage
Ora Shay, our correspondent in Midland, TX, George W. Bush's
hometown weighs in again with some old-fashioned investigative reporting that reveals the origin of the Bush foreign policy in
the Middle East.

On Inferring the Existence of Trees
Minimalism rears its simple head in the pages of Magellan's Log as Astraeu Chakar heads for the desert and takes notes,
sort of.

Alien Graffiti
Discovered in Mexico!!!

An anonymous correspondent sends us a shocking, offensive, heretical photograph which, he
alleges, shows huge UFO graffiti on a high
Rio Grande cliff.

handle on what's happening.

F O G B O U N D
Verbal paradox + a Japanese Buddha + Schubert = ?

Is It Empire Yet?
Our
editor tackles one of the really big questions of the day and, after dismissing the
quotidian arguments of both media and academic hacks, concludes that, yes, we are every bit as imperialistic as our most admirable
ancient forebears.

Though helpful and
entertaining, the results of our cleverness in the face of a world both beguiling and
threatening are massively not the point.
