Three short Sufi works, Colophon, Walters Art Museum Ms. W.643, fol. 37a
arabic songs

Image by Walters Art Museum Illuminated Manuscripts
This is an illuminated manuscript comprised of three short works on Sufism by N?r al-D?n ?Abd al-Ra?m?n J?m? (d. 898 AH / 1492 CE), produced in Safavid Iran. The first work is called Lav?yi? and consists of a collection of apophthegms. The second work is a commentary on the famous Arabic "Wine poem" (Khamr?yah) by ?Umar ibn F?ri? (d. 632 AH / 1235 CE). The third work is a commentary on the "Song of the flute" from the beginning of the Mas?nav? of Jal?l al-D?n R?m? (d. 672 AH / 1273 CE). The manuscript was written in nasta?l?q script by the well-known Iranian calligrapher B?b? Sh?h ibn Sul??n ?Al? I?fah?n? in 999 AH / 1591 CE. There is a note dated to the year 1105 AH / 1694 CE on fol. 1a indicating that the manuscript is made up of two papers: Samarqand? (for the text) and Dawlat?b?d? (for the margins). There are also seals dating between the eleventh century AH / seventeenth CE and the thirteenth century AH / nineteenth CE.

This woman can recite the entire Koran from memory. When recited, it sounds like a song. Even in Afghanistan, the language of the Koran is Arabic.

Some cool music images:

Cibo Matto at Brighton Music Hall, 20 July 2011

Show info:

Last FM

Boston Phoenix

Videos from the show, from my YouTube account:

Cibo Matto — set opener and "Beef Jerky"
Cibo Matto — banter about pad thai and "Spoon" (upload still pending as of this writing)
Cibo Matto — "Birthday Cake"
Cibo Matto — "Know Your Chicken" and end of set

Quoting from the show review at econo jams:

Recording: Cibo Matto – Live @ Brighton Music Hall – 7-20-11

1. (Intro)
2. Beef Jerky
3. Le Pain Perdu
4. Sugar Water
5. (Boston Banter)
6. Spoon
7. BBQ
8. Tenth Floor Ghost Girl
9. Moonchild
10. Sci-Fi Wasabi
11. Check In
12. Birthday Cake
13. (Encore Break)
14. Blue Train
15. Know Your Chicken

Another awesome show at the Brighton Music Hall! This place is quickly shaping up to be one of my favorite venues in Boston. Continuing the much appreciated trend of 90’s reunions, Cibo Matto returning this year was a delightful surprise. Though I had only really gotten into the band in more recent years, “Birthday Cake” had been in my life for nearly 10 years due to the video game Jet Set Radio Future. Also I was very familiar with “Sugar Water” due to the classic Michel Gondry directed video.

When they first took stage, is was just Miho Hatori and Yuka Honda, the core of the band. The first three songs were all from their debut “Viva! La Woman” and sounded pretty spot on to their album versions. Yuka was clearly using some of the same equipment from the band’s original run, as her keyboard presents were saved on a zip drive! (Remember those?) The rest of the band then joined them for the Buffy approved “Spoon” from their second album “Stereo * Type A,” and remained for the duration of the set. I always think its cool when bands gradually bring out more members, and never see it used enough. In addition to highlights from their two albums and “Super Relax EP,” the band played two new songs, later hinting at an upcoming album! Both were good and fit in well with the rest of their setlist.

Overall “Sci-Fi Wasabi” and “Birthday Cake” got the biggest crowd reactions, both eliciting a band/audience call and response. The energy for “Birthday Cake” in particular was insane, and it will undoubtedly be one of my live highlights of the year. They closed the set with fan favorite “Know Your Chicken,” playing for a bit over an hour total. After the show, the band hung around the merch table, signing shirts/ticket stubs, and posing for photos. Both Miho and Yuki were very gracious and down to earth. In addition to the new record, the band expressed sincere interest in returning to Boston again. If you missed them this time, be sure to see them in the future!

SUDTIPOS »Whomp« ? Pop Music (for widescreen displays)
pop music

Image by arnoKath
Wallpaper 1920×1200.

Typefaces in use:

Alejandro Paul’s (Sudtipos) superb, sturdy, brush script »Whomp«.

Whomp takes its inspiration from the work of an American master in sign painting and alphabet manipulation: Alf Becker.
In 1932, Becker began designing a series of alphabets to be published in Signs of the Times magazine at the rate of one alphabet per month. Nine years later, 100 of those alphabets were compiled in one book that became an enormous success among sign painters. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, many Alf Becker alphabets were digitized with blurbs that falsely credit an “Alf Becker typeface”. Alf Becker was not really a typeface kind of guy. He was more of a calligrapher and sign painter. His alphabets were either incomplete or full of variations on different letters, and didn’t become typefaces until the digital era.
This particular Becker alphabet was quite incomplete. In fact, it wasn’t a showing of an alphabet, but words on a poster. Alejandro Paul took the challenge of drawing, digitizing, restructuring, and finally building a complete usable typeface from that partial alphabet. He then extended his pleasure by once again playing with the wonderful possibilities of OpenType. Whomp comes with more than 100 alternates, tons of swashy endings and ligatures, all built into the font and accessible through OpenType palettes in programs that support such features.
This is the in-your-face kind of font that stands among other Becker-based alphabets as paying most homage to the vision of this great American artist who saw letters a live ever-changing beings.

Nice Tribal Music photos

A few nice tribal music images I found:

XAVIER & RAFTWET AT CLUB NEPTUNE
tribal music

Image by rafeejewell
Second Life holiday parties was an incredible mix of trance, dnb, electronica, dark psy, goa, minimal, proggy, acid, experimental, industrial, noize, tribal, jazz, live music, country, blues, reggae, salsa, classical, opera, and Christmas music. I heard it all and then some.

I love music of all kinds. If it’s good, it’s worth listening to, so don’t start with the nose-up-in-the-air over your favorite genre. Believe me… good music will always find an audience. An audience of sophisticated listeners will stop to listen to any good sound… even if it isn’t part of your normal repertoire.

What is amazing is that dj’s and musicians around the world know this, and they borrow from all genres to create their own personal sounds.

Here in Second Life, we get the results from around the world. World music mixes with the trendy sounds of the day, and we get the sounds that we love so much.

I want to thank all the dj’s, musicians, club owners and event makers in SL. You guys made a holiday scene like no other. APPLAUSE & BRAVO ::::

Special thanks to you <3:
