I found it image googling the term 'John F Kerry'. Having looked at the site it's on, I'm reluctant to give it the honour of a link, because it's pretty vile. But on the other hand it's so silly, and contains such gorgeously inept and idiotic graphics, that I will. Stentorian (http://www.stentorian.com/politics). One guy with a 3D design package, a fascination with propaganda graphics, and some poisonous prejudices. A scream. If any of you become rabid goose-stepping libertarian nazis as a result of that link, blame me. And Anonymous.

I like your new icon. Is that military helmet you are sporting a kind of art guerilla chic ? Hope you've forgiven me for my fumbled remarks about post-modernism which were not meant as a slight on you at all. I got a bit carried away. As "Oskar" is my favourite of your works I sincerely hope you will keep it "fake". Incidentally what will "robotic rockist" irony be like ?

The helmet was just a prop lying around in the theatre where I'm currently rehearsing. No offense at all taken at your pomo remarks! I hope you like 'Otto', 'son of Oskar'. I have to admit, rather shamefacedly, that it's currently my favourite record, even though it's by me and that's rather embarrassing. I listen to it and think how sensual, adventurous and exotic it is, especially the first half (it's probably a bit too long at 70 minutes), and especially the way it now flows through the danger zones of John Talaga's morphs, like a singer dodging song shrapnel in a battlezone.

I think machines will be incapable of irony, though they may well have a steely or irony look.
