About Me
- Name: Peter Rozovsky
- Location: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
This blog is a proud winner of the 2009 Spinetingler Award for special services to the industry and its blogkeeper a proud former guest on Wisconsin Public Radio's Here on Earth. In civilian life I'm a copy editor in Philadelphia. When not reading crime fiction, I like to read history. When doing neither, I like to travel. When doing none of the above, I like listening to music or playing it, the latter rarely and badly. Click here to find an independent bookstore near you.

On the subject of interactive media events...I've recently become interested in the films of Adam Curtis and I thought you would be intrigued by this It Felt Like A Kiss which you recently called one of the darkest songs of the 60's.
Thanks, Adrian. I've been hankering for a good olfactory-audiovisual promenade-style theatre production.
Are The Singh Twins any relation to those fabulous Collinson twins, of 'Twins of Evil' fame, I wonder?
Too many twins to keep track of, TCK. I think these two were portraitists of some kind. How evil they are, I don't know, but I'd like to know what Indian crime fiction came up for discussion and whether the Singh Twins have anything to do with crime fiction. Indian crime fiction has come up form time to time at this site, after all.
Oh, do spare a moment to check out the Singh Twins, they are pretty amazing:

Now I'm even sorrier I missed the event. Thanks for the link. Am I wrong in detecting a debt to Mughal painting combined with a sly wit?
Here is the link in handy clickable form. And I wonder who took part in that panel discussion. Anyone you know or have worked with or read? Perhaps you yourself took part.
