MONKEY ROLL CALL!

I highly encourage you to click on that link and go over to that entry not only if you haven't posted yet, but also if you haven't looked at it in a while.

These are some of the faces of your social network.

Scroll through the comments. Look at the faces and associate them with the usernames you've always seen.

Read who they are, what they do, what they're going to do, where else they live online...

Do this in your Facebook, Flickr, et cetera. Find faces for the names. See the people behind the phosphor dots. Talk to 'em.

I know for a fact that at least a dozen of my readers have met in real life after meeting on my LJ and then arranging to hang out with each other and that's FANTASTIC.

And I've met...over thirty? Forty? of the people from here and Flickr and Orkut, all of them amazing.

I feel like I finally have some plans for my online presence again, from writing to art to...a few new features and some I abandoned.

Help me make it stick this time, after so many months of fail.

And you know what? The future, for all of its bad shit, really kicks ass sometimes.

Go internet.

PS - Since I forgot to add this last time: Last.fm / Flickr / YouTube / Delicious (still have some to add) / Twitter / LibraryThing / Facebook

Haven't done it in a year-and-a-half, so...

MONKEY ROLL CALL!

There are a shitload of you and I don't know all of you, nor will I ever be able to. Still, I like to have photo reference. I even have a folder on Bettie (my laptop) with photos from the previous times I've done this, with filenames like "smileybead from LJ." Don't think of it as a nightmarish obsession, think of it as "My Brain Doesn't Fucking Remember Anything Are These My Pants Oh God Not Again."

Anyway, here's your chance to show off.

Take a picture of yourself right now.

Don't change your clothes, don't fix your hair, just take the picture.

Post the picture with no editing.

Beneath it, give us a brief bio, tell us where you live online, and what it is you do that should delight us.

Damn, my teeth look all gnarly in this photo...in any event...

BRING IT!

Love,

Your Friendly Neighborhood Internet Monkey King

The latest addition to my BENJAMIN-AS-INTERNET-MONKEY-KING drawing pile.

This one is by Tim

iconotrast Hamilton.

Y'all really NEED to go back to my previous entries with the Monkey King / Bizarro art I've gotten from people and look at 'em again.

FRIEND THESE ARTISTS!
SUPPORT THEM!

A number of them do other artwork online, in print, and one on people's skin, and it's through word of mouth that their work really gets spread. And getting their work spread can get them money / jobs that will make the starving part of their artistry a little easier.

So, yesterday I demanded ~~fealty and obedience from all~~ drawings of me as the Internet Monkey King.

Also, Bizarro benjamin.

Several of you have provided, and provided well.

What is it about my phone posts and techno? DJ Evily (

nhyrvana,

evily) made two songs about a year ago.

Now MC Mostly Harmless (

harmlessinc) has made one, and

violet_hemlock listened to my last phone post over techno, blissfully unaware that others had blazed that trail.

As such, I give you the first three tracks in the Fone Post Projekt (right click to save, click to play in your browser):

Classic Techno: Monkeys and Robots - DJ Evily feat. benjamin sTone

Chillout: Ridiculously Beautiful - DJ Evily feat. benjamin sTone

Thumpy Sampleness: Dig It - MC Mostly Harmless feat. benjamin sTone

I'm thinking that this weekend I'll be trying to back-tag all of my entries, so you'll be able to rummage through all of my old phone posts. Feeling inspired? Tech-nize one. In any event, I've found some LJ numbers that actually work, so expect more Phone Posts soon, including me reading some stories I've written. I promise I'll make those from a landline so the sound doesn't totally suck.
