Apologies for missing yesterday's post, it's been a crazy couple days for me. The astrology of July is very fascinating, this is one of the most astrologically jam packed months we've had in a while, so expect chaos and a flood of potentially overwhelming emotions, particularly around the...

We recently discussed the future of valuation, and how valuation, like economics, is currently a broken science desperately in need of new paradigms. As I noted in my post on Bowie bonds, I think debt-based fundraising is favorable, and perhaps is connected to how the credit and banking...

Phew, the work and stress never end, let me tell you. Somehow revenues are increasing yet stress is as well. How the f does that happen.
Anyway, I did have a post planned for today on the changing nature of work culture -- i.e. what my business meetings are like, versus what they are like...

One of the ideas floating around that I find interesting is that the 2012 consciousness shift will result in a social transformation from a patriarchy to a matriarchy. We've discussed these concepts before; see our previous post on the babe-ification of brands, as well as our post on how the...

Since we're about at the end of June, I figure it's time for a mid-year review.
1. My business is growing, as we've started hiring some independent contractors, and have enough money where I could afford moving to an apartment I wouldn't be embarrassed to show people, the first time I've...

A while back I mentioned that Obama sucks, and that I would do an official "Why Obama Sucks" post. So here it is.

1. Obama's foreign advisor is Zbigniew Brzezinski. Here is Huffington Post's brief...

Yesterday and today gave us one loud and overwhelming reminder of how mainstream media controls our society.

Believe it or not, Michael Jackson's death is not the only thing that's happened in our world of late. For instance, there is also a bill in the US Congress regarding...

I've talked about them before, but I think they're so good, that I have to mention them again.
TuneCore.
Basically what they are doing is sending power to the edges -- decentralizing it. They are helping unite all the web services out there that musicians need and putting it into one...

Social Go is a company that lets you roll your own social network, much like Ning (see our previous discussions of Ning). I also consider myself to be in the business of creating niche communities, so these companies are competitors in a way (but I don't really view them that way, as I don't...

Well in general I don't talk about Kid Mercury to the vast majority of my friends and family, because most of them don't understand or appreciate kook stuff, and since I stopped being a live musician there was not much of need to talk about it. But some of you have found this.
This is for...

1. There was an election between Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Mir-Hossein Mousavi.
2. Ahmadinejad won. Or at least that's what some people say. Riots have started due to accusations over election fraud.
Now this is where it gets interesting. The conspiratorial view, meaning the view advocated...

On one hand of the Internet business world, we have Wall St. finance: the whole system of getting companies from startup to IPO. Private equity funds get money from a variety of sources, virtually all of them connected to the military-industrial complex (which itself is ultimately a weapon of the...

In the future of music, musicians will have less incentive to release albums, but instead a steady stream of singles. These singles can then be repackaged into playlists. This will vastly change how music is marketed and experienced.
Other media will follow similar trends.
With this in...

Be forewarned: this is a self-indulgent blog post. Strictly for therapeutical reasons.
So the partying got a bit out of hand last night. While I don't think I made any immoral decisions, which I am very pleased to be able to honestly say, but I did make some mistakes. I behaved a bit...

My cousin is getting married this year, as we've discussed before, and this weekend is the bachelor party. There are actually two bachelor parties, one in Prague later this year. This stupid wedding is costing me a lot of time and money. My cousin is one of my top peeps, though, so I go along...
