Angel >> DJs/Greenpeace collaborators Coldcut and Hexstatic Now you've seen everything: a DJ collective that makes the news pages. The Coldcut and Hex collective have just released the final part of their Natural Rhythms Trilogy, Timber, on CD-ROM featuring video sampling--using footage of rainforests being clearcut, provided courtesy of Greenpeace International. The resulting video-music combination, in which all sound components are linked to video sources, transforms chainsaws and sledgehammers into musical instruments of destruction. A portion of all sales will be forwarded to Greenpeace. Which means that, irony of ironies, an environmental protection group will now benefit from the sale of Timber.

Insect >> Quebec Provincial Court Crown Prosecutor Pierre Garon At last Friday's bail hearing for three newly arrested activists from the Queen Elizabeth buffet action, the prosecutor turned into Grand Inquisitor when he cross-examined Davida Lecomte, one of the accused. Since Lecomte chose not to swear on a Bible, Garon attempted to undermine her testimony by exclaiming, "On what authority do you tell the truth? You don't believe in God!" When the laughter died down in the courtroom, the judge rebuked Garon for his inappropriate moralizing. So all you godless anarchists out there be warned: the prosecutor is on a holy roll, and he's a true believer.
