i actually like this one. like, not to the point where i'd buy it if i encountered it somewhere, or even get it as a free download, but i'd go "huh, this is kinda neat" you know?

A Series Of Pictures Of Kevin Bacon

"I left my baby in the back of a Blink-182 song. If you looped and stretched a pop punk song like 80 times you could have a drone masterpiece."
- Rachel Hyman

this used to be always by blink one hundred and eighty two. it needs to be stretched a fair bit more to be true to the poem but i figured an hour version would be good enough to work as a proof of concept thing. the original song outside of the stretching is largely unedited, to the point where it almost sounds exactly the same when sped up, but the eq has been fiddled with to make it sound... dronier. and there's a dramatic per-chorus pause that i shortened a lot because it was like a minute long otherwise

for the full effect, please put this on repeat and read http://alienmouth.com/september2015/21.html with it on in the background

Aliens Exist

WANTU

I accidentally got eleven 7-12 year olds chanting Shrimp! Heaven! Now! throughout an animation workshop.

So I work at a youth charity. Yesterday, I was explaining MBMBaM to a volunteer because they heard me singing Lin's song from the live show, and some of the young people overheard and found it absolutely hilarious. This seemed unfair to the others, since it looked like some of them had an in-joke with me and some didn't, so I had to tell everyone about Daniel to make it fair. They loved it. They became obsessed with it. The ones who already knew yelled along with Daniel when I told the story the second time, which made the others want to yell S!H!N! too. Before I knew it, I was subject to a constant demand for immediate crustacean salvation.

Obviously, I won't film my young people, but I felt like this moment had to be shared, so I recorded a bit of audio on my phone that nobody can be identified from. The following is the last half minute of my session, trying to get it all out of their systems before they head back to our public drop in area, so they don't totally confuse everyone's parents.
