A Viridian Fragment
from the ecclesiastically resplendent Bruce Sterlinghttp://www.amoda.org/On the evening of Sunday December 22nd, some
Austin Museum of Digital Art (AMODA) guys have promised
to come out and digitally jam in our front yard in
the very thick of the Christmas crowds. Failing,
you know, eerie monster hailstorms or something.
And no, AMODA don't do no Christmas carols. I'm not sure
how you categorize that music, but it's weird and
it comes out of machines.

Then the season's finale: New Years' at the Viridian
Vatican. We're throwing the doors open for 2003. There
will be some tasty surprises, plus the traditional
neighborhood New Years surveillance of the insane
light show on Austin's 37th Street. I'm not boasting, not
just yet, but this may, finally, be the year where I wipe
the floor with our 37th Street rivals.
Send email for directions. You can bring anything
you can carry and anybody you trust.

Well, there goes the Arctic. Check out that graphic
of the sea ice diminishing. It's transforming fast.
We may hit some major climate crux during the Bush
Administration. Would that surprise the powers-that-be
more than the sudden collapse of Enron? Probably not!
