MySpace Archive (2008-2010)

Before social media became algorithms and outrage, I wrote a series of satirical blogs that developed a small but enthusiastic following. They were written quickly, occasionally irresponsibly, often tongue-in-cheek, and reflected the issues of the day. They are republished here as part of that period, lightly edited for readability but otherwise left largely as originally written.

The Higgs Theory of Negativity (2008)

Originally published on MySpace in 2008, this satirical essay explores CERN, religion, scientific progress and modern society.

  • Part One – God, Bosons and Black Holes
  • Part Two – Medical Science and the Pursuit of Immortality
  • Part Three – The Theory of Negativity

This website is an independent project, created and maintained to preserve more than three decades of music, writing, photography and archive material.

Keeping the archive online involves ongoing hosting, domain and storage costs. Everything here is freely available to explore, and there is absolutely no obligation to contribute. However, if you have enjoyed the music, found something interesting in the archive, or would simply like to help towards the cost of keeping it online, any voluntary contribution would be very gratefully received.
