favourite example of pop culture-interactive art synergy of the year came by way of the video for the eponymous single from Califone’s Stitches. Culled from a variety of Tumblr pages, the ever-changing video pans across various still images and .gifs: anatomical diagrams, optical illusions, old textbooks, archaic non-sequiturs, archaeological remains, eternally-looping dancers, vaudeville posters, porn, tourist ephemera, washed-out horizons, etc. There’s a kind of mysticism to the video’s aleatoric strategy, curating from pages that are themselves re-posted to so many degrees that their original source may be long lost: “Didn’t we fit together / Like somebody else’s sweater?” Tumblr is symptomatic of a very current state of the vast proliferation of images, but it’s an old, and very Modernist, idea, harkening back to the world of assemblages: of hermetically-sealed, private worlds and obscurities with vast meaning. Nostalgia’s object is always allusive, always seemingly belonging to someone else, and thus part of a continuum with our own world of free-floating signifiers.

i like this album. it's got a more austere feeling to it than the last few, maybe, and the melodies have grown a little sweeter, but those aren't bad things. jessie stein really adds something special to the few songs she sings on. there's something compelling in the way her childlike voice interacts with tim rutili's cracked tenor. and his lyrics keep doing that magic dreamlike thing they do, that no one else seems able to do the same way. yeah...i like this album.

*Califone*I Califone sono una indie post-rock band sperimentale di Chicago, ben considerata dalla critica. Il nome della band deriva da quello dell’azienda Califone International, fabbricatrice di attrezzatura audio comunemente diffusa nelle scuole, librerie e aziende americane.*Breve storia.*Dopo lo scioglimento della sua band precedente, i Red Red Meat, Tim Rutili formò Califone seguendo un progetto personale di musica solo. Tale tentativo diventò presto un vero e proprio progetto musicale con una lista di contribuenti, sia fissi che a rotazione, nella quale entrarono a far parte sia membri della band precedente Red Red Meat che membri di altri gruppi musicali di Chicago.La musica dei Califone è una combinazione del rock-blues dei Red Red Meat con ispirazioni prese da folk, pop americano, così come da band elettroniche come Psychic TV e Captain Beefheart e rielaborate a riprodurre un suono distintivo e originale.Attualmente la formazione dei Califone comprende Joe Adamik (batteria), Jim Becker (banjo, violino), Ben Massarella (percussioni) e Tim Rutili (voce, chitarra, tastiera). Ogni membro della band tuttavia usa più strumenti....Il *Post* continua: cdnvf.blogspot.it/2013/10/califone.html

So funny, just listened to this for the second time and googled "Califone Stitches Eno Big Ship" to see if anyone else heard similarly. I guess so!

I feel Califone fans form a coterie of kindred spirits. Shit runs deep, my friends.

Everything they do is great! Check out Roots and Crown, Room Sounds, you can listen to them endlessly!

It's probably too interesting to be popular.

How this band isn't more popular is beyond me. This is actually *interesting* to listen to.

I feel like coming apart at the seams. These stitches kept me together for 3:33.

Ben's high harmony along with Tim sounds great! (Sorry I didn't recognize you at the PHX living room concert Ben. Oops!) Such a tasteful song and each element is so nicely presented. That's Califone for you!
