hey there, my ever conspiratorial, never conceptional side-kick Ruin Gebirk has entered a strange but minimal, not so aggressive but rather progressive techno track in a more or less hiphop focused contest. it features vocals by tom waits and a sound shemata derived from a steam engine train (sort of).
it can be listened here Tom Waits Train Ride (techno)
you are kindly asked to vote for this effort. to proove that you are really a unique human being capable of entering this voting procedure as an individual you need only a valid email adress. should Ruin win the 1000 $ (which is rather unlikely, considered the fact that it is a rather blatant contribution to a pop-music contest) you all will be invited to a night of heavy drinking (leave your email below this post) taking place in Berlin sheduled for sometime in December.
with hope for your highly appreciated support, i remain,
elliot

Girl don't go
Now I'm all alone
Nobody with me
Nobody gets me
Head back home
Down on the farm
Momma's there a-waitin'
Gonna be some masticatin'

Down home'n Mommy
What you cookin' for me
Some greasy fried chicken
F-f-f-fried chicken

Momma caught me cryin'
Told her I was lyin'
About my situation
For public masturbation
Sheriff comin' over
Wanna talk it over
But he won't ever get me
I'll take some chicken with me

Gary McKinnon and his mother, Janis Sharp

Gary McKinnon is a Scottish technical expert, or as he is referred to by US federal prosecutors, the perpetrator of "the greatest military hack of all time." This claim is "total fucking bullshit", a phrase common amongst information security professionals.

Although Mr. McKinnon has high name-recognition factor in the United Kingdom he is virtually unknown to the American public. He is a mentally challenged hacker who waltzed through ninety-seven US military Web sites before being caught. Mr. McKinnon was looking for evidence of UFOs. He has Asperger Syndrome, a form of autism. It doesn't make him Rain Man but it does create a different perceptual framework.

Gary McKinnon was arrested in the UK in November 2002 after a thirteen month hacking spree into US military networks. He was eventually caught because he used his own email address to download a program called RemotelyAnywhere. Before the bust McKinnon had been under surveillance by Britain's High Tech Crime Unit. But then he did that, dare I say, retarded thing.

Gary McKinnon left his email address plus a number of taunting messages such as, "Your security is crap" on US military servers. Personally, I think the messages were on the polite side. America's military network security is the cyber equivalent of Swiss cheese. My granny could have pulled off McKinnon's hacks and she was well in the grave before they even transpired. Because remember, if you wanted to intrude into US military sites in 2001 all you had to do was key in: user = guest; password = hello.

The British public stopped asking for justice for Gary McKinnon some time ago. Now they're demanding it.
