Big challenges and making art babies
Musical genres by the most popular words in its titles. It’s pure poetry. Blues is “worried mojo howlin' luck reconsider goin' highway messin' mean motherless lowdown prison gambling leavin' walkin' lonesome boogie howling hurts juke”. Death Metal, on the other hand, is “morbid condemned satan's perpetual slaves internal destroyer unholy funeral slaughter cursed damned wrath flesh suffer nocturnal chaos serpent vengeance beneath.” (shoutout to The Morning News)

Meet Big Challenges
Schooner + Agaric Mushroom + Purse
If you’re having trouble making out what this is, that’s because it is a completely new creation that I birthed a little bit ago. This is a child of the visual parents listed above, some schooner, some mushroom, and some purse. It took all of five seconds. Try your hand at genetic remixing on Ganbreeder, and send me some weird shit you come up with. (via Chris Scott)
And hey New Yorkers: Banana getter Leah Jones is hosting an amazing workshop on setting your own personal goals this Saturday in NYC with special guest Jacqui Cheng, the new editor-in-chief of Music at WQXR. Leah has opened up registration to a sliding scale to make it easy for as many people as possible to participate. But also, your own Three Banana Thursday is offering one scholarship that covers the full cost of admission, so all you have to do is get yourself there. Send me a note if you’re interested. And hurry! I’ll be wrapping this up tomorrow.
Thank you. Those are this week’s bananas. You can hit “reply” and it will go only to me.
