It was a long time since a new KitKat was released.
But now, it’s not just one but two new KitKat:

Very nice gift from Rudolf Eb.er: one of the last releases of Tochnit Aleph. This is a strange and funny LP with Rudolf Eb.er, Joke Lanz and Céleste Urech (3 y.o. !!) who wrote it ! This is the fourth volume of the Tochnit Aleph Punk Series.
Thank you so much Rudolf !
Zeni the Ripper
As I was back in my hometown where all my CDs and tapes collections are (my LPs are somewhere in France but I don’t know where neither who has them !) so it was a great opportunity for transfering all my CDs on my iPod. It took me a whole day (mainly because I had to change the CDs and without reliable Internet connection, it was not always possible to obtain the information about tracks directly) but I’m happy I did it. I could(re)discover CDs that I had totally forgot. My tastes have changed a bit since the time I bought these CDs but I was surprised than only few CDs were not eaten by the iPod. A lot of the CDs are releases of Amphetamine Reptile but there are some nice Trance Syndicate or Choke releases and Swans related projects too. And many others that would be too long to write here…
I can now listen to Plainfield/Ted Bundy’s Volkswagon split that is awesome (until now I could only find the hoax release Jello Biafra with Plainfield with some very stupid songs) and the great The Hairy Patt Band (Buford’s Last Pusser CD).
Yet, there is some place left on my iPod. Next time I’ll have to rip my LPs if I find them. But I’ll need more than one day…
Childplay 3 ~ Opening Party ~
I was not there but Miou took some pictures for me:
From Stratford (II)
After almost five years in Japan, it is quite hard for me to believe that there are countries where there is not at least one convenient store open 24h a day in each city. I was quite surprised by the time stores are closing in the UK (at least at Stratford). It is even worse than in France. So after 6 pm, no way to buy a beer except in a pub. The only opened shop I found was a gas station convenient store with nothing except all the kind of potato chips you can imagine.
Tomorrow I’m back in France. I’ll first have to take this train to London that goes throught a lot of small villages. I hope I won’t meet this drunk guy again who was drinking a Guinness, smoking in a non-smoking train, asking a young woman if she is gay (she had short hair, may be that’s why), before going down at the next station and throwing his half empty beer on the platform in front of a station employee. But he is the kind of guy you know it is better not to mess with.
And is english food so awful that lunch at the conference is always ethnic food ? Breakfast is ok, I just can’t eat the beans. May be it reminds me natto too much, without the smell.
From Stratford
Well, here I am in Stratford-Upon-Avon. It took me more than two hours by train from London to reach the city where everything is about Shakespeare but where it seems impossible to have a free Internet access point. Even at the conference I’m attending you have to pay for Internet access. I think it’s the first I’m at a conference where no free Internet access is available.
The city is beautiful but it looks like a very boring place if you have no interest in Shakespeare.
No relation but it seems that the problem with the comments is back again. It is a problem with my database. I don’t have much time now to check this problem as my time of Internet access is running out. But I’ll try to solve it as soon as possible. In fact it seems that I have the same troubles than before with disappearing posts… Time to change the provider ?
Away
The activity on the blog will be seriously reduced due to the fact that I’m now traveling in Europe.
Anyway, I’ll try to give you some news if there is a connection available in the city where Shakespeare is born (Stratford-Upon-Avon). Well, I must first reach the place.

Des concerts à voir vers les 17/18/29 à Paris ?
Sex Master – Body Pottery [French]
Je profite de la diffusion du très déroutant Strange Circus de Sono Shion ce soir à l’Etrange Festival à Paris pour vous proposer la critique d’un film de Sono Shion. Vu le titre, on devinera aisément de quel genre de film il s’agit.
Flamenka ?ChildPlay 3?
Some information about the exhibition of Shojo no Tomo @ Beams Gallery. The two dolls (Eimy and Melon Man) I made with her will be exhibited there.

Melon Man
We (because Miou helped me a lot with the sewing part) just finished a second doll designed by Shojo no Tomo and called Melon Man for the exhibition at the Beams Gallery at the end of the month.
Here are some pictures of the (almost) finished doll that is a bit similar to the previous one. But for this one, a setting of the synthesizer (inside the body with the speaker) is changed by changing the head (that is attached to the body throught magnets). The arms have the same function than before, that is to change some settings with pots.

Lost posts (again)
I’ve lost most of my posts again…
I don’t know if it is because of WordPress, my provider or if someone is accessing my blog.
So, no more photo of Zidane with hair… at least until I upload them again.
But I’m getting less and less motivated…

I’ve finished my second synthesizer based on the SN76477 chip (I finished the painting during the event Le Placard yesterday evening). This time I put everything in a box. Here are some pictures of the device.
