KEEP ME POSTED
(Nov 2014) - When I first started blogging I quite enjoyed doing it, partly I guess because I felt I had something to say. Well, that was just post my 13 year reviewing stint for Sound On Sound magazine and maybe there was something about the writing process that I hadn’t quite got out of my system yet, who knows? But looking back over my last couple of years of the ‘News/Blogs pages on my website I’ve realised that rather lazily I’ve mostly just been re-posting info from the Chris & Cosey/Carter Tutti/Throbbing Gristle web site news pages and any actual blogging is pretty thin on the ground.
‘Back in the day’ although my blogging was relatively inconsistent (actually more like erratic) it was still a hell of a lot more than I’ve bothered doing over the last few years, which has been so patchy and sporadic to be nearly undetectable. I like reading other people’s blogs, well at least blogs that have something interesting or funny to say but I’ve come to the decision that I’m not really the blogger type any more. I do like posting the occasional anecdote, insight or rant but two or three of these a year seems to be my average, or my limit? In my opinion that is hardly blogging at all.
So I have decided to retire all our remaining Blogger/Blogspot sites (or whatever it’s called these days), which in any case were basically just mirrors of the blogs/news on our main web sites. The Throbbing Gristle / Industrial Records and Chris & Cosey Blogger/Blogspot pages were already mothballed some time ago. The Gristleizer page hasn’t seen an update for 18 months or more and my CCCL Blogger page (aka: Chris Carter's Chemistry Lessons) hasn’t seen any action for three years… a disgraceful state of affairs!
So.. the CCCL Project and old Gristleizer site have now been incorporated into my site, which makes perfect sense and I don’t know why I didn’t do that years ago - and the (previously retired) Gristleism site is now part of the Throbbing Gristle / Industrial Records sites.
I could end this post by saying that now all these different Blogger/Blogspot sites have been rationalised and taken ‘in house’ (so to speak) a lot more posts and updates will be forthcoming… but I won’t. -
