Is this the new Daft Punk project?! (The Third Twin)



Ms. Bystrak could really give two hoots, but frankly, I am really excited about this, and needless to say, if you are going to Coachella this year and you like to dance, then you should really be excited too!!! According to my friend Justin, "Daft Punk released 12 tracks throughout the recording process for the Tron soundtrack which were rejected by Disney, and for legal reasons, could never be released under their name. These 12 tracks have been made available to the public under the pseudonym The Third Twin (TTT), who have also been confirmed to play Spain's Arenal Sound Festy in August..."

Read the article below for a better explanation of the whole story and check out the Myspace page to listen and watch a video for every track! New Daft Punk or not, I'm impressed.

Funny Robot Stuff: Satanic Puppeteer Orchestra

Since I'm running a contest to win the Satanic Puppeteer Orchestra box set, I've been thinking about robots and was remembering how earlier this year there was some controversy about some researcher claiming that sex with robots will be common in the next decade and marriage to robots will be legalized by 2050. I'm not even kidding. And the awesome thing, of course, is not only that I remembered it, but of course, it's quite easy to find via Google.



Awesome robot books here with killer titles like Love and Sex with Robots: The Evolution of Human-Robot Relationships , How To Survive a Robot Uprising: Tips on Defending Yourself Against the Coming Rebellion, Robo sapiens: Evolution of a New Species.

And here's another interview with Dr. Levy.

I think there are people who feel a void in their emotional and sex lives for any number of reasons who could benefit from robots. Other people might try out a relationship with a robot out of curiosity, or be fascinated by what's written in the media. And there are always people who want to keep up with the neighbors.
Please, no sex with the Satanic Puppeteer Orchestra on Wednesday night at the Casbah. I mean, unless they initiate.
