The Flaming Lips + Bon Iver = ???

A likely recipe for whatever The Flaming Lips and Bon Iver have in the works:
- one cabin in the wilderness of Wisconsin
- enough confetti to thoroughly pollute the atmosphere
- all stars that have fallen to the ground
- four CD players
- five skulls
- a pinch or two of Autotune
- jagged vacance, thick with ice
- one giant plastic bubble
- snow
- swarm (herd? pack? gaggle?) of pink robots
Directions:
Stuff all ingredients into the cabin and see what happens. Gather other Lips’ concoctions (with Death Cab For Cutie, Nick Cave, Ghostland Observatory, Yoko Ono, Neon Indian, and maybe with Lykke Li, Erykah Badu, and Ke$ha as well). Let simmer until April (Record Store Day-ish).
Enjoy!

'...I don’t really know any addicts that don’t have trauma in their backgrounds. I think, to activate this thing, there is generally pain that needs to be numbed, or trauma that needs to be gotten away from. One of the things about the disease model is that so many people of the non-alky variety are just so indignant about it. I think we should just give it up. It’s maybe not worth the fight over the semantics of it. It’s like, addicts are killing themselves, they’re unable to stop using drugs, I would think that would be more important than what to call it."

(21st 'Holy' Shroud (inna JG Ballard stylee!)

Testimonies disclosed that a 44-year-old pedestrian was struck head-on by a truck while she was roaming on the motorway; at the time of collision, the truck was travelling at a speed of about 90km/h. In the second phase of the collision, the pedestrian was projected about 100m before her body was run over by the truck and then by a car. The autopsy revealed extensive mutilations, making it impossible to verify the testimonies of witnesses to the collision as regards the pedestrian's position at the moment of the first impact. However, the reports produced by the technical expert and the forensic pathologist were able to confirm the testimonies, based on an impact zone on the front panel of the cab of the truck, where part of the pedestrian's face was reproduced like a "modern holy shroud".

The banner headline on today's Age saying 'The draw, the seeds, the Aussies' I thought was referring to Australia's placing in the world's drug consumption chart. 
Imagine my disgust when I see it is referring to fugn tennis :)
