The Fantod Pack (1995): a Gorey take on the Tarot deck.<\/em><\/p>\n \u2022 A happy 100th birthday to Edward Gorey. I was hoping to link once again to Gorey’s appearance on the Dick Cavett Show<\/em> from 1977 (a rare TV interview) but it’s one of those things that’s no longer available at YouTube. You can always browse Goreyana<\/a> instead. Meanwhile, there’s this in Scotland: In Gorey Detail: Celebrating An American Friend At Custom House, Leith<\/a>. A tribute exhibition which is running in Edinburgh for this week only.<\/p>\n \u2022 \u201cA blisteringly frank and triple X-rated chat with Peter Berlin<\/a>\u201d. A blisteringly hyperbolic headline for a discussion between Ted Stansfield and Peter Berlin, the self-invented sex object of the 1970s.<\/p>\n \u2022 This week in the Bumper Book of Magic<\/em>: Smoky Man<\/a> posts my replies to his questions about the creation of the book’s Rainy Day<\/em> and Kabbalah sections.<\/p>\n \u2022 Tricky\u2019s Maxinquaye<\/em> was released 30 years ago this month. David Bennun<\/a> revisited the album five years ago.<\/p>\n \u2022 At Colossal: Felines evoke \u2018A Floating World\u2019 in T\u00f9ng N\u00e2m<\/a>\u2019s whimsical illustrations.<\/p>\n \u2022 New music: Gloam<\/em><\/a> by Emptyset, and The Mount Hibiki Tapes<\/em><\/a> by Mount Shrine.<\/p>\n \u2022 Mix of the week: A mix for The Wire<\/em> by Polonius<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2022 Steven Heller’s font of the month is Steam<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2022 Last Of The Steam Powered Trains<\/em><\/a> (1968) by The Kinks | Steam Megawatt<\/em><\/a> (1979) by Tod Dockstader | Building Steam With A Grain Of Salt<\/em><\/a> (1996) by DJ Shadow<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
