A distinctive "ping" from the Cray III supercomputer roused us from our nap just moments ago to alert us to an output from its media-scanning applications. It would appear a young writer in, of all places, Minneapolis, has recently introduced herself to psychogeography. We are glad such persons are out there in the human crowd sharing experiences. This troubled world will be needing all the psychogeography it can get, and sooner than it thinks. Curiously, we had of late been contemplating the possibility of attaching higher mathematical functions, or at least the appearance of same, to the randomness of psychogeography on behalf of those less privileged in their appreciation of freedom and creativity as a way to introduce both to them. Whether we follow an algorithim or not we all should be out there walking and experiencing. Like the late, great Lux Interior sang: "The way I walk is just the way I walk."
Perhaps the POWcityblog bunker has been in one place for too long, has become institutionalized? We'll send Miranda to the library for an atlas of America after lunch. We understand Minnesotans are the longest lived people in the world, living longer than even the Japanese.

RIP John Updike & Lux Interior
editor's note: speaking of The Cramps, we were at this show at Napa State Mental Hospital & have cherished the memory ever since. Initially, the other audience members were shy but soon were rocking it out. The hospital barber? Well, let's just say we initiated litigation against him after I saw what he'd done to several of the people who can be seen in the now-charmingly-antiquated video recording. We employed the firm of Smith & Wesson, renowned for decades for their dispute resolution skills. Ninety seven minus fifty two is the kind of algorithim we like best!
