gmanyo Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 What's interesting is how companies are moving us towards a society where we have more virtual items than physical ones... will 'cloud cleaning' be the new future purging of your past? I saw a guy talk about this on a documentary that's over 15 years old. He wanted to do away with discs and floppies and have everything come through to his TV. Guy was a genius; can't remember who, though. It's pretty freaky how much stuff we have in the digital aether. Not very secure, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundwave Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 ironically I'm about to go trough the same process again and I have a ton of shit I don't want to throw out. My old 80's action/sci-fi VHS's are going to have to bite the dust and the old C64 I've been stashing have to go (taking out the SID of course). Don't know what to do with the games tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know what to do with the games tho NOOOO! Don't do it, man! That stuff's pure gold! Also, fuck yeah Eccojams. I actually found the Troutman song from EOLES#1, not the other way around.

After that blindingly awesome Altered Jams (EDIT: lol wtf?) Zones interview he did I now understand how/why he chose those particular 2 bars to sample, which just makes it that much sweeter.

Guest zaphod Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I don't have a problem with materialism or "being bound to things". I don't differentiate between a lifestyle where you aestheticise ideas, philosophies and personal tastes vs a life filled with material goods. Although, if this thread is really just about throwing shit away, I'm down with that. Don't be a hoarder, give away stuff you don't use. Doesn't need to be any more complicated than that.

Also I think it's cool to have some physical things, but not like a shit ton. Like a very focused collection of things. That said I am nowhere close to achieving this with my own stuff...

SCONES TO DIE FOR Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I have so much crap - especially music gear, records and CDs - even old electronic music magazines. Old clothes even. Mostly I like having access to it all. Some stuff is probably worth something. Anyone want an XLR8R from 2001 with BoC on the cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosmachine Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 Make sure you rip any important discs before you toss 'em. Do you have any other cool stuff to take pictures of?

Don't know what to do with the games tho I was a bit gutted when I got rid of all my Doctor Who VHS cassettes (all 108) I had taped off the television from PBS from about 1986 to about 1990-1. I used to watch those and get nostalgic for the PBS "bumpers" (bits before the programmes) that accidentally got on the tape because I wasn't good at timing my recordings.

Dan C Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I'm moving in three weeks and I am currently throwing away bags and bags of stuff. I like stuff, but I dislike moving stuff even more, so everything must go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
