CRAIG CONLEY (Prof. Oddfellow) is recognized by Encarta as “America’s most creative and diligent scholar of letters, words and punctuation.” He has been called a “language fanatic” by Page Six gossip columnist Cindy Adams, a “cult hero” by Publisher’s Weekly, a “monk for the modern age” by George Parker, and “a true Renaissance man of the modern era, diving headfirst into comprehensive, open-minded study of realms obscured or merely obscure” by Clint Marsh. An eccentric scholar, Conley’s ideas are often decades ahead of their time. He invented the concept of the “virtual pet” in 1980, fifteen years before the debut of the popular “Tamagotchi” in Japan. His virtual pet, actually a rare flower, still thrives and has reached an incomprehensible size. Conley’s website is OneLetterWords.com.
"It was apparently a man with bat's wings and frog's legs. The face could be distinctly seen, and it wore a cruel and determined expression. What was it, and where did it come from?" From Beyond Reality, No. 27.
If you've ever felt unsure about unicorns, Wolfgun's audio journey Cineres will leave you skeptical of your own skepticism.
Not only does Cineres capture the sounds and voices of unicorns in a forest, it's like a master course in how to hear cryptozoological wildlife on your own.
You'll hear sounds on this album that you've never experienced in this world or any other. That aspect is in itself utterly priceless.
Inspired by our own Field Guide to Identifying Unicorns By Sound, Wolfgun uses the book as a springboard to search for and establish further, indisputable proofs. Whether the awe-inspiring message he recorded is cautionary or hopeful will be up to the listener to judge.
Suffice it to say that Wolfgun's sonic adventure is unlike anything.
