Ubu Web
I found this great, not-for-profit resource. Many many audio files and other things available. I'm just listening to Gabo and Pevsner's Realistic Manifesto. There's Warhol, Reich, Acconci, Cage... So you can get indoctrinated whilst mobile. Enjoy

Dahl Forever
hello here is the dahl recipe that I said I would share. If you don't care for it then just skip past.
What you will need:
Red Lentils
Onions
Garlic
Tin of Tomatoes
Cayenne pepper
Turmeric
Paprika
Salt
Cinnamon
Cloves
Cumin Seed
Coriander Seed
Coconut cream
So chuck your lentils into a large pot, probably like a cup of lentils into two or three cups of water the lentils will take around to 20 minutes to cook, you will know they're done when they are soft and also the dahl will thicken in consistency. In with the lentils you want to put in some delicious spices, I suggest turmeric 1tbsp, paprika 2tsp, salt to taste, 1/2 a tsp of cayenne pepper (or more if you're game), 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, 3 cloves. Check your lentils every now and then, add more water if the look thirsty. 10min in you can add some tomatoes, probs 1 tin.
While lentils cook dice 2 medium onions and 3 cloves of garlic. In a frying pan fry these things with coriander seed and cumin seed in oil until delicious looking, either caramelized or until you get sick of stirring. Add onions into giant bubbling dahl also put in some coconut milk/cream (just a dash).
Heat it all up and serve on rice.
If you want to bulk up the dahl you can add in some more vegetables or legumes at an appropriate time maybe some carrots or chickpeas. While dahl is happening you should taste is frequently to monitor spice levels, always add more spices if in doubt.

I don't know if this is authentic, but I like the sentiment. Worth a read.
