I did not have "Stevie Wonder dropped four unreleased songs from the 'Songs in the Key of Life' sessions that have been sitting in his vault for 50 years" on my bingo card for today. Holy cow!
unreleased recordings get eaten by spiders georg after 50 years
KEXP was playing a whole bunch of Stevie yesterday which immediately led me to think the worst...only to pleasantly surprised...NOT DEAD! JUST NEW SONGS! WOO!
@homerj Probably the same reason these songs came out—yesterday was the 50th anniversary of the release of Songs in the Key of Life.
In the literary world these kinds of revisions pop up every few decades usually out of scholarly interest but in some cases it's purely because doing so allows them to renew copyright on the title even farther beyond its already ridiculous duration. James Joyce estate, you know what you're doing.

Wooden bass guitar with alternating dark/light/dark wood, a dark wood neck, and a single pickup that has a chrome cover and gold foil accents.
Some small finishing details to do, but it's a complete working bass now. I only have an hour of playing on it so far, but i like it - it's comfortable to play and at least on my little practice amp sounds great.
The project started with the pickup, a re-creation of the gold foil pickups used on 1960s Harmony (and some other) basses. I bought the neck from an eBay seller but modified it a bit for my preferences and to fit the body. The body i built from scratch, it's sapele and maple, with a very thin amber varnish finish. Body shape is a fairly close copy of an aluminum-necked Kramer bass. There's only 1 knob for volume, there's a static tone circuit that's the same as if the tone knob was always turned fully up.
I'll have the first band practice with it tonight, and will probably let it settle in a bit before bringing it to shows. I'm really pleased with how it turned out, just what i was hoping for when it was still just a graph paper drawing earlier this summer.

Gorgeous!
Woo!
😻😻😻
damn, i love this whole look- the body shape, the wood grain and staining, the "racing stripe" inlays, all of it!
what is the pickup you chose?

Thanks all!
@nikkuneko This is the pickup, i got it used on one of the bass forums a bit cheaper than new:
https://www.curtisnovak.com/shop...
It's a single coil, so it has a little hum but it's pleasantly deep and punchy. I'm really looking forward to putting it through the main amp tonight.

It's been fun seeing the progress updates on this and the finished product is gorgeous. I'm not even a bassist (I have a Squier six-string bass but I tune it like a guitar) but just looking at this makes me want to pick it up and start doodling.
Dead handsome, that.
Wow, congratulations, that's a heck of a build! I really enjoyed the detailed write-up.
Wildly cool.
This is simply wonderful.
Really nice job. I'm into the 2+2 and shape combo.
@not_copinghagen I get tired of all the Fender and Fender-shaped basses in the world, i was happy to find this inspiration for something different.

There's definitely a quest to be acquired in that box.

@dreyfusslugado
Based on the context, I would argue that the occupant of the box has already completed all the quests he’d set out to achieve.

Doing great! (Today was my first day in my new running shoes.)
@snarkout thanks! i'm trying.
what new shoes did you get? how are you liking them?

Just a new pair of Brooks Ghosts (18s, replacing last year's model).
Run felt okay! Last week my ankle was bothering my a little so I decided to replace them, even though I wasn't at a full year on my last pair. (I don't put a ton of miles on my shoes.)
@snarkout nice, those look great.
and hah, i WISH my walking or running shoes lasted a full year anymore, but i feel that. i always feel it in my hips and knees when i let them go longer than they should.

I applaud fitness goals!!!
Yes yes yes! Keep up the hard work! May you derive joy from the use of your legs and the increased heart and breathing rate.
I’m such a big fan of big races, too, if ever you decide to train for one (or again, if you’ve already checked that off your bucket list), I hope you enjoy the big excited, nervous, collaborative community of people all just doing their best to accomplish a hard thing together. Heck I hope you enjoy that part on your own, too, I just get stocked about the unique feeling of race days (and where I am even more a living defender of the mantra “running slowly is still running” hahaha)

square collage of four images:
1) a ginger cat sitting in a shopfront window, looking downward.
2) several old doorbells on a wall, with some brick visible in the bottom corner.
3) the silhouette of a man wearing a cowboy hat standing on the roof of an office building
4) a vivid sunset sky, with pinkish clouds behind the silhouette of trees, telephone poles, and wires. a waxing crescent moon is visible between the telephone wires

Phil Hartman was so good. No knock on Sally Field here, whose acting is perfect in this
I am not sure how i have never seen this , or even heard about. It must have ruffled some feathers in the 80’s? 90’s?
Both of them were perfect.

A group of adults building sound circuits. An illustration of a circuit powered by a 9V battery is projected on the wall
I developed a workshop to teach art conservators about electricity and electronics with NYU's Institute of Fine Art titled "Art With a Plug". Originally a 5 day intensive, then a hybrid asynch/synch month-long online version for a few years, and now back IRL with the conservation team at the MoMA for the next 2 weeks.
Everyone builds a sound circuit on a breadboard, then moves to a fixed version on a protoboard. After using Forrest Mims' "Stepped tone generator" (aka Atari Punk Console) for the online sessions, I returned to the Cracklebox for this edition.
To my utter joy and surprise, every team got the circuit up and running in a little under an hour. They had to learn to solder, follow a schematic, work with a multimeter, and get comfortable improvising when recreating an artwork. Super excited to see what they do for next week.

An animated gif of a skater doing a slow loop around an empty swimming pool.

I love that the angle of the lighting is just so such that the skater’s shadow is always in the lit portion of the bowl. Never fully in the shadow of the lip, never outside the lip on the other side

Where the F does this loop start & end! It's flawless.

seemingly complete gallery of the 21 stages of the Pepsi Cola logo
TIL Pepsi was originally Brad's Drink, but, more importantly, this shows that:
- Before 1950, branding was the province of mescaline addicts only
- by 1951, branding had already absorbed Baudrillard avant le hashtag
- Before 1950, branding was the province of mescaline addicts only
- by 1951, branding had already absorbed Baudrillard avant le hashtag
Willing to bet the designs 1903-1951 aren't deliberate modifications, but the results of hiring local artists to redraw the logo because they didn't have a clean copy of the previous original.
On the other hand, I'd bet the designs from 1991-onward are the result of marketing executives doing a rebranding purely to pad out their resumes while they hustle on to their next promotion.

I have a historical trademark book in my office with some additional info... "Brad" is because it was invented and sold by a pharmacist named Caleb D Bradham, before he branded it later as Pepsi Cola. He did really well with it until WW1 when there was sugar rationing and then sugar price fluctuations later. He lost ownership at a specific point when he bought sugar at a high and suddenly had to sell it way low in 1920.
I don't think any of these are very good. 69-71 is the cleanest, but not very interesting. And the 2008-23 attempt to make an equivalent to Coke's "Dynamic Ribbon Device" is a total failure. The black ring around the current one makes the logo look cramped.
@dogwelder The current one looks like an old oil company logo that somebody repurposed for their rave flyer.
I like how the new logo is just the old logo from when I was a kid.
if I see the 71-87 variant I know it's gonna be some good pizza.
71-87 is canon. Shame the actual drink tastes like ass.
@ardgedee spot on
@jordanbrock ditto on all counts
