Folks, just a heads up that I have begun work on a new website for miKroNaught, which is myself (Vir Unis) & MjDawn working together as producers and recording artists. We are currently working on production for Chicago based band, Camera. We also are working on loop libraries and have a new album album coming out this Spring. So, there is a lot going on and what better place to find out about this info than at a brand new website? More info coming soon....

I'm currently finishing up final artwork for the album. I've gone through some real changes in the artwork, which is really important to me in any release. This has what has been delaying the release date. With the holidaze, I've been sidetracked from finishing this. Now that the blur of the holidaze has passed, I will be finishing this and looking to release on Jan. 16th....After that, it's all Elf Machine for a while. Hummigbird was really a lot of work, but I'm hoping that will pay off.

AtmoWorks' very own MjDawn and Vir Unis, collectively known as MikroNaught is currently featured on Fxpansion. Fxpansion is a company that has produced outstanding progams like BFD and GURU. These are essential tools for both artists and have been used extensively for not only MikroNaught, but solo Vir Unis projects as well as work for Mudvayne's new recordings.

Here's a great transcript of a talk given by Terence McKenna. Really wish I could have seen and heard one of his talks. He was a great speaker.
New Maps of Hyperspace
by Terence McKenna
A talk given at the invitation of Ruth and Arthur Young of the Berkeley Institute for the Study of Consciousness, 1984. (Included as written word because this edited transcription appears in print as part of his book The Archaic Revival—deoxy)
In James Joyce's Ulysses, Stephen Dedalus tells us, "History is…

I read this interview with Terence McKenna this morning. I was thinking about him, after watching 'Meet the Robinsons' with my son earlier this morning. It's a funny kids Disney movie, but it's about time travel and stuff, so it just kinda morphed into Terence in my mind....-:)
Anyway, him talking about eternal light ala William Blake, shining through plants and insects, was really moving, as he was facing his own inevitable death. Please read. Whether or not you like his stance and philosophy…

Read this article this morning. Quite entertaining and wanted to share.
LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- The SUV pulls to an abrupt stop on Ventura Boulevard in Studio City. In the middle of the westbound lane is a man in a loud shirt, his body coiled with energy, darting across traffic toward a strip mall.
William Shatner sinks his teeth deep into life, reveling in acting -- and everything else.
The driver jumps visibly, and not merely at the presence of a human being on the pavement. It's…

1st chapter of 'Unweaving from the Rainbow'.
Chapter 1: The Anaesthetic of Familiarity
To live at all is miracle enough.
- Mervyn Peake
We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Sahara. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Kea…

I find world war II history quite fascinating. Trying to wrap my head around the events that happened in the early to middle 20th century, I've turned to books like "Morning of the Magician", which goes into the more psychological and spiritual aspects of World War II. It's fascinating how the blind idiot, Hitler, was able to twist Nietzsche and Crowley to satisfy his own internal lust for war and self importance. In one of my google/wikipedia trips (which I consider to be my studies) I came acr…

The more I read about his current work, the more I continue to admire and be inspired by this visionary man. His ideas and outlook on art, culture, politics, etc., are so similar to mine. He definitely resonates with me.
Here's a link to a current interview with Mr. Eno by Wired Magazine.

Anyone hear or know anything about the new Orb album. I think it's called The Dream. I read something briefly in Future Music, but didn't finish the article. Just enough to see that they're back.

The father of LSD has died at 102. Wow, what a trip....
"The substance which I wanted to experiment with took over me. I was filled with an overwhelming fear that I would go crazy. I was transported to a different world, a different time," Hofmann wrote.
A moment of silence please....-:)
