The Sons of Gumby
May 25th, 2010 · Comments Off on The Sons of Gumby
Our beloved WEFUNK just celebrated its 600th show in grand fashion, with sets dedicated to late ā60s soul, Clinton-era hip-hop, and the fine art of locking . Given the showās Montreal base, they also couldnāt help but throw some north-of-the-border rap into the mix, including the gem above from DJ Format (whose British by birth) and two of his Canadian sidekicks. The …

The ultra-celebrated Ta-Nehisi Coates has lent us plenty of support over the years, so weād like to return the favor by calling attention to his latest conquest: the vaunted pages of The New Yorker , where his killer MF Doom profile just debuted. Though to call it a mere profile is a disserviceāitās also a meditation on the essence of hip-hop and, more fundamentally, …

The Gulag-Free Archipelago
December 1st, 2009 · 4 Comments
Upon being presented with the map above, the first question that pops to most minds is, āWhy is the incarceration rate in the United States so absurdly high?ā But given our proclivity for the esoteric, we now find ourselves wondering, āWhy is the incarceration rate in Indonesia so darn low?ā
There is certainly no single, all-encompassing answer to that head-scratcher. Thereās …

The greatest to ever do it
I have a heavy writing day ahead: Iām having serious problems with a transition in my lede, and experience has taught me that ironing things out will take a good eight hours. So Iām shirking my Microkhan duties for the day and just tossing up some rare footage of the greatest squash player to ever walk the Earth. …

Whenever Iām stuck on a writing projectāan all-too-frequent occurrenceāI usually try to find my way forward by contemplating a single question: How can I shift what Iām trying to say without reaching for cliches? Because a lot of the time, the reason Iām banging my head against the wall is because Iām taking an approach to the …

Twelve Years On
May 14th, 2024 · Comments Off on Twelve Years On
A few weeks ago, after a lengthy writing session, I switched my phone off Work mode and noticed that I had a voicemail from an unknown number with a Los Angeles area code. Iāve been noodling with a couple of long-term projects connected to the city of my birth, so I figured it was a callback about one of those ventures. But the message could not have been more unexpected, nor more …

Recommended: The Prepared
October 12th, 2022 · Comments Off on Recommended: The Prepared
Like most folks who spend too much time on The Tubes, Iām signed up for dozens of newsletters that I rarely, if ever, crack open. But I never do a thoughtless delete of The Prepared , a weekly publication about the nitty-gritty of how complex and gargantuan objects get made. Though a fair chunk of each email isnāt germane to meāI wish I was smart enough to take advantage of their …

Vanishing Act
September 23rd, 2022 · Comments Off on Vanishing Act
As someone whoās occasionally been tempted to retreat from the professional life Iāve built, Iām pretty curious about whatās happened with the director Martin Brest. He went from churning out a solid-to-great film every few years, including one of my all-time favorites , to being a non-entity in the movie business: Nearly two decades have elapsed since his last gig. The easy …

Though this probably doesnāt bode well for the future of Microkhan, Iāve decided to take it easy with the writing today. Itās the annual anniversary of my arrival on this hunk of nickel, iron, and what-have-you, and Iām celebrating by stealing a few hours to sketch out my plans for the next 365 days. (There may also be some barbecue and alcohol in my immediate future.) So no real post …

The Art of Experimental Design

The title of todayās post could easily be yesterdayās: āCommitment to the Bit.ā Because what I find most fascinating about the field of hitchhiker studies is the effort that its practitioners pour into gathering data. I donāt know many social scientists who would throw themselves into their work quite like the authors of āWHO PICKS UP WHOM: The Fleeting Encounter Between …

The Bard of Svengalis
October 11th, 2022 · Comments Off on The Bard of Svengalis
When you pick through the work of accomplished nonfiction writers, youāll usually find that they keep exploring the same general theme through multiple projects. In the case of Randall Sullivan, that theme can be neatly summarized as, āCharismatic individuals whose delusions of grandeur exert a strong gravitational pull on people in search of meaning.ā Itās most evident in his first and …

The Reason That I’m Here
January 19th, 2024 · Comments Off on The Reason That I’m Here
Iām generally against nostalgia, since I think itās obvious charms can insidiously blot out our ability to live in the moment. But Iāll confess to being overwhelmed with sadness upon learning a few minutes ago that Sports Illustrated has essentially been swept into the dustbin of history . As Iāve discussed on this here site several times , my SI subscription made me fall …

Treasure Troves
September 22nd, 2022 · Comments Off on Treasure Troves
As someone whoās chosen to write for free on WordPress for a presumable audience of none, Iāve developed a soft spot for age-worn media platforms that are still chugging along. If I so desired, I could make Microkhan nothing but a series of valentines to still-updated BlogSpot sites that chronicle 1950s postcards or models of cement mixers.
Iāll spare you that deluge of esoterica, …

The Big Sleep

The illustration above should give you some sense of how I spent my summer: Learning everything I possibly could about the current state of hibernation research, the unheralded key to getting our species to Mars and beyond. I did so in order to write this new Wired story , which came out on Thanksgiving morning. The pieceās narrative throughline is about an Alaskan researcher …
