Deep Space 2020 | 30×40 cm
As a child, sci-fi was my favourite genre. Growing up in 1980s Soviet Russia, we didn’t have shows like Star Trek— I caught up later. It was the work of Soviet sci-fi authors that first sparked my love for the genre. Stories set in deep space, especially, always made me reflect on my own place in the universe.

Xylaria longipes, aka dead moll's fingers. Shot couple of winters ago in north of Brandenburg at the Barnim natural park. A 2008 study concluded that the species could improve wood for the purposes of making violins.

Drop what you are doing and read this incredible story from Wired, if you can. After that, come back here.

wired.com/story/edward-coristi

It mentions that a 19 y/o man who's assisting Musk's team and who has access to sensitive government systems is Edward Coristine. Wired said Coristine, who apparently goes by the nickname "Big Balls," runs a number of companies, including one called Tesla.Sexy LLC

"Tesla.Sexy controls dozens of web domains, including at least two Russian-registered domains. One of those domains, which is still active, offers a service called Helfie, which is an AI bot for Discord servers targeting the Russian market.While the operation of a Russian website would not violate US sanctions preventing Americans doing business with Russian companies, it could potentially be a factor in a security clearance review."

The really interesting part for me is Coristine's work history at a company called Path Networks, which Wired describes generously as a company "known for hiring reformed black-hat hackers."

"At Path Network, Coristine worked as a systems engineer from April to June of 2022, according to his now-deleted LinkedIn resume. Path has at times listed as employees Eric Taylor, also known as Cosmo the God, a well-known former cybercriminal and member of the hacker group UGNazis, as well as Matthew Flannery, an Australian convicted hacker whom police allege was a member of the hacker group LulzSec. It’s unclear whether Coristine worked at Path concurrently with those hackers, and WIRED found no evidence that either Coristine or other Path employees engaged in illegal activity while at the company."

The founder of Path is a young man named Marshal Webb. I wrote about Webb back in 2016, in a story about a DDoS defense company he co-founded called BackConnect LLC. Working with Doug Madory, we determined that BackConnect had a long history of hijacking Internet address space that it didn't own.

krebsonsecurity.com/2016/09/dd

Incidentally, less than 24 hours after that story ran, my site KrebsOnSecurity.com was hit with the biggest DDoS attack the Internet had ever seen at the time. That sustained attack kept my site offline for nearly 4 days.

krebsonsecurity.com/2016/09/kr

Here's the real story behind why Coristine only worked at Path for a few months. He was fired after Webb accused him of making it known that one of Path's employees was Curtis Gervais, a serial swatter from Canada who was convicted of perpetrating dozens of swattings and bomb threats -- including at least two attempts on our home in 2014. [BTW the aforementioned Eric Taylor was convicted of a separate (successful) swatting against our home in 2013.

krebsonsecurity.com/2017/09/ca

krebsonsecurity.com/2017/02/me

In the screenshot here, we can see Webb replying to a message from Gervais stating that "Edward has been terminated for leaking internal information to the competitors."

Wired cited experts saying it's unlikely Coristine could have passed a security clearance needed to view the sensitive government information he now has access to.

On April 12, 1945, 2600 mostly female prisoners of the Altenburg camp were sent on a “death march” before the arrival of the Allies. Around 800 women were liberated by American troops in Waldenburg on April 14, 1945. The others were forced by the SS to march across the Ore Mountains towards Karlsbad. Their fate is unknown.

This monday we commemorated 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. Here is my work from a series "Ordnung!" with German bullet casings from 1939 made by imprisoned women in labour camp of Altenburg, a satellite camp of the Buchenwald concentration camp.

This piece from the forest triptych is brought together by the three core elements: shruti drones, the bowed zither and field recordings.

This is inspired by a midnight swim during the autumn equinox. The shruti box’s drones blend with the bowed zither, echoing like geese calls, accompanied by field recordings of the secretive lake.
