-- valves are people too --

As the century turns, we become ever more committed to the overthrow of corporatism. All art that is vapid, all that reeks of shallow mannerism, all that is posing and not life lived to the fullest, shall be destroyed without mercy.	This web site is yours too. Here you can help me climax a lifelong artistic obsession with signals. Here, joined together, in these hot, musty steam tunnels deep beneath the Info Subway, we will celebrate the fuzzy outer fringe of human communication: doing it, watching it, avoiding it, coffee.
Fearlessly, throwing bullshit and artistic dogma aside, we will seek and achieve the essential Netness, the most efficient conversion of electricity into thought. Proudly, as our esthetic symbol and extra-temporal rallying point, we will invoke the ominous beauty of the mighty vacuum tube (valve), as we defiantly hurl fire into the Night.
The Ominous Valve is the Faberge egg of the New Millennium. The present belongs to the tired and passe. The future belongs to us. There is absolutely nothing else here which need be understood.	John Lyles
