Weltraumschiff 1 startet
A German Science Fiction movie from 1940. With many thanks to the Raumpatrouille Mailing List.
WELTRAUMSCHIFF 1 STARTET (1940) ist ein 23-minütiger Zusammenschnitt aus dem Rest-Material wegen des Ausbruchs des 2. Weltkrieges leider abgebrochenen Dreharbeiten zu den SF-Filmen ZWISCHENFALL IM WELTRAUM (D 1939, Regie: R A Stemmle) und WELTRAUMSCHIFF 18 (D 1939, Regie: Eduard von Borsody).
Here’s the film again in better quality at archive.org. And, of course, the scale model of the spaceship.
Like brand new
The DeLorean Motor Company. I didn’t know they’re still building (well, rebuilding) them. They’re expensive, but then they’re also good for time travel. Via Retro to Go.
Rock’n Roll
Franny and the Fireballs, Dortmund, Musikkeller, 26.2.1977. Dedicated to Franz.
Gnogongo from Wolf
Wolf sent me this photo many years ago and I think it’s still relevant today. I really miss the EAP, they were a great party. I wonder if they they still exist?

Obviously rather minimalistic, because I found the link via Minimal Mac. Here’s part1, part2, part3.
Fabulous Steampunk
Reise zum Mars, a short movie. Via Helgas galaktische Funkbude.
Update: The HiRes version is here. Many thanks to Simon!
Githead talking
This comes straight from the Githead Headquarters: a heated discussion between Robin Rimbaud, Malka Spigel and Colin Newman. They were arguing about things like:
- Hawkwind
- Bands on tour
- Age and the record industry
- Professor Scanner
- English expressions we all hate
- The author Michael Crichton
And of course lots of talk about their latest and so far best album, Landing.
Enjoy the podcast and buy the album. Because it’s great.
