Ceri Hann on being involved with 100proofs

“My focus is being a bit out of focus, answering questions with questions and negotiating the mind warping gravitational pull of counter knowledge as it’s event horizon expands to become the grand narrative of the paranoid mass. This is a picture of the barrel of monkeys philosophy dept. It sits over a light in the city square, drop past and borrow some fingerless gloves this winter, talk absurdity and expand on the many meandering threads that Tape projects have untangled in the never ending quest for any of the many proofs. Being part of this project has undoubtedly shifted the parameters of my thinking and will provide a delicious splinter for your mind and maybe more than just a human kind : )”

The Earth is Flat – the New President of the Flat Earth Society

An article from yesterday’s Guardian:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/global/2010/feb/23/flat-earth-society

An extract from the article by David Adam:
Daniel Shenton should be the most irrational man in the world. As the new president of the Flat Earth Society, you’d ­imagine he would also think that evolution is a scam and ­global warming a myth. He should ­argue that smoking does not cause ­cancer and HIV does not lead to Aids.

Yes, that Flat Earth Society, a group that has become a living metaphor for backward thinking and a refusal to face scientific facts. Yes, it is still going, and no, this isn’t an early April fool.

In fact, Shenton turns out to have resolutely mainstream views on most issues. The 33-year-old American, ­originally from Virginia but now living and working in London, is happy with the work of Charles Darwin. He thinks the evidence for man-made global warming is strong, and he dismisses suggestions that his own government was involved with the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
