On Novevember 27th, 2007 we visited Sterling Sound in New York City to document first-hand the all-analog mastering process. The process by which Mission of Burma’s landmark recordings from the early 1980’s were re-mastered. The process is old-fashioned. The gear is original. The vinyl is live cut.

Cory Arcangel’s Colors. Via Rhizome—
Artist Cory Arcangel, in keeping with his practice of providing public tutorials for his art projects, recently made his video application “Colors” available as “Colors PE” or “Personal Edition.” Arcangel used “Colors” to screen Dennis Hopper’s film Colors in his 2006 exhibition “subtractions, modifications, addenda, and other recent contributions to participatory culture” at Team Gallery, and the same version of the work will be exhibited in the upcoming show “Color Chart: Reinventing Color, 1950 to Today” at the MoMA.
