Post 1 of a Pre-post to a Future Post called 1 YR L8R

Cuming soon 2 the L.A. Nouveau blog... a very special post borderline meme that will b titled
One Yr L8r: A Historical Look at the L.A. Nouveau Empire


This will b published throughout the 1 yr anniversary month of the L.A. Nouveau blog (which is October), a blog that started out as a simple way 2 vent about "modern society" bullshit.
A blog that went on 2 bcum an angsty analysis of "culturally relevant" (via HRO) topics.
A site that expanded in2 an entire "family"/"network"/choose.ur.own.Web2.0.description of blogs, tumblrs, sites, events, etc.

Nd while the blog itself has gone long ignored 4 the last several months, its ideas have only expanded further.

- Its expanded in2 a more "articulate" more "socially acceptable" more satirical Online Museum that is called Artifacts of Modernity, which can be viewed @ ArtofMod.com.

- Its wonderful musical postings have been all cumpiled in2 one central place called MusicNouveau (music being the things that r posted, nouveau being part of the name of the blog/”family network infrastructure”) which can b found @ MusicNouveau.tumblr.com.

- Its starvation 4 entertainment has been executed thru crazy events via L.A. Nouveau parties, 50% of which have resulted in some sort of legal/police intervention.

So as L.A. Nouveau continues 2 move fwrd in ways outside of the original blog, it feels like its good time 2 "look at our past" in order 2 "best understand the present" in order 2 "help us best succeed in the future".
Please join me on this magical journey thru teen angst, pseudo-hipsterdom, hyper-irony, meta-physical means 4 understanding the world around us.

So much has been said here/commented here/vented here/demonstrated here/symbolized here, nd while its been expressed in the cuntyest form evrr via lack of vowels nd disturbing bulletpoints nd etc., its overall quite a beautiful manifest of "human understanding" nd "sociological evolution".

ImportantNote: Sry if u ever felt "abandoned" by José via the lack of L.A. Nouveau blogposts. But if u couldnt tell already, the L.A. Nouveau spirit has far transcended this lil blog, nd I hope u've been able to experience that spirit thru other more "meaningful" avenues.

// The month of October will b an exciting time 4 the L.A. Nouveau family. //
Artifacts of Modernity has recently sparked interest from a rly cool online web business.
MusicNouveau has recently been reblogged quite a few times via tumblr.
Carles from Hipster Runoff now "follows" Artifacts of Modernity.
This season's first full-fledged L.A. Nouveau party is soon approaching.
Nd the blog will re-emerge as a place for historical analysis for at least the remainder of the month, nd who knows what will happen from there.

Thnx u's all 4 all ur support/h8/love, nd enjoy the memories that will flow throughout this lil Month of October.

Peace Love Bitch,
José

Back in the Game, Sortofs.

Intro: This is a BlogPost that begins by discussing my personal absence from the Blogosphere nd my decision 2 get back in the game a lil.

"2 Blog or not 2 blog" has been both Will Shakespeare nd my personal question of the last few weeks. With hardly any free moments in my lil ol life, L.A. Nouveau has hardly received much posting love of late. So much traveling has occurred (aka Get excited 4 some amazing destinations via the "José Meets World" meme), so many ppl met, so many landmarks defaced, etc.

But in the last few weeks, so much Music News has been pouring from out of evry lil hole and crack that I simply have no choice but 2 re-start up the L.A. Nouveau engines nd get this baby lubed cocked nd ready 2 fire once more. (U choose whether this was a SexualRefrnce or not)

This time, however, in order 2 bring u more up2date music findings, I have gone 2 the dark side via TUMBLR in order 2 supply u with the latest.

So, as of this very moment in time, I present 2 u all...

MusicNouveau. A place 4 José-approved Music. A place 2 quickly browse nd instantly download/listen 2 quality tunes. A place 4 losing urself in the music the moment you own it you better never let it go (sry bout that, started channeling Eminem there).

The link is this: MusicNouveau.tumblr.com

Nd here's a lil peek at whats cuming up in the next few days on MusicNouveau:

- Sufjan Stevens new album??? Zero 7's new genius creations. New song by Air. Imogen Heap has new shit 2. New band 2 watch 4: The Dodos. Nd more. Its all gonna b there.

This could b the greatest experiment of all time or the biggest flop of my career. Either way, u's all will b doing it with me.

Hope u bitchfully enjoy,

José
