I’ve always given

June 14, 2000 by Michael Boyle

Courtney Love the benefit of the doubt when people were tearing her apart about some of the things she’s been involved in. Salon (yes, Salon) has published a speech she gave at an online entertainment conference that strongly confirms my high opinion of her. A must-read in the Napster/mp3.com/piracy/RIAA files.

Found!

Time's Cyberporn
Today when packing up some stuff I found the following gems:

  • My old issues of Mondo 2K, lovingly preserved. I stumbled upon the first issue I ever bought in a corner store in Prince Albert, SK, of all places.
  • My copy of Time Magazine‘s ridiculous and shameful Cyberporn issue.
  • a draft copy of Latvia’s official citizenship law circa 1994, pre-passage – “Confidential, not for distribution”
  • The 1997 Ars Electronica catalogue.
  • An early copy of Shift Magazine, before they’d moved to New York, before they started covering net culture. Back when it was still a literary journal with a round logo and 24 pages. Back then, practically every writer in Shift had gone to McGill with me.

I’m moving today

June 14, 2000 by Michael Boyle

and more this weekend, and none too soon. There was a murder on the corner yesterday, at the coke bar, and they’re setting up a huge dog and pony show for this weekend’s Canadian Grand Prix. Honestly, the big Formula 1 display (complete with a stage for live shows, a virtual racing game and stuff) is more discomfiting to me than the murder was.
