Aron Michalski - Comments

The fact that each voice, each story can touch different people because of the unique quality and timbre of it, is the hope and secret of microcommunities. Like an AA sitting in a church basement, looking for a shred of faith to believe in and hearing my own story come out of the mouth of a stranger, Cliff aggregates the wheat and blows away the chaff. - Aron Michalski

“We can afford to be aroused by good art, strong writing, great performances.... There is enough mundane noise out there.”

"out there" is pretty general. Care to elaborate? :D - Mark Forman

Look around you and see the amount of uninspired work, fear-based and consumer-based creations, it's so much more interesting to see things created by engaged people, not always beautiful, not always happy, not always clear but true as it can be in the moment, an artist capturing who they are, what they feel and what they see in any given blink of an eye. Howzaat? - Aron Michalski

Surright and agreed. - Mark Forman

Seems like it would be simple enough to put in a separate stylesheet and call it done. The colors just don't work on the iPHone even when you zoom in, plus there must be some double div container that makes you zoom twice to read the main column. - Amyloo

Just realized evan will probably never see this comment. How do I make that happen? Write his full name and see if he shows up? Evan Prodromou. Mention his product and see if that summons him like an accio charm? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S... Identi.ca Identica -- or some key phrases?

I'll take your word. I added it to my Gigadial queue. Normally I avoid TSOYA like the plague. As many times as I've heard it described as brilliant, I have a hard time making it through all the times I've tried it. The hyper-ironic tend to lose me quickly. - Dave Slusher

I generally avoid TSOYA as well. This one was recommended by Dean Allen @ http://textism.com/ . The last 10 min. are great. The first 30 are barely listenable. If you just want the really, really good clips - Allen pulled them out on his site. - Garrick Van Buren

OK, very good. I'll listen to the snippets. That is preferable to me over trying to plow through an entire episode of Jesse. - Dave Slusher

The little bit at the end of the last clip is a great example of why I don't like TSOYA. At the end of the day, it's all always about Jesse. Bleh. - Dave Slusher

You don't see Steve Albini's name turn up too often. Downloading for the last 10 minutes. And maybe a little Big Black from my iPod for the afternoon. - mark
