📚 Salty's Recent Reads 📚
Below you'll find a list of articles that I've read and found
especially interesting. I read a ton of shit of articles/documents
online every day, so you're only getting the cream of the crop here! I
also make a point to archive each one using the
Wayback Machine so that the
links never die.

🦎 I read
"The 20 greatest jungle records ever made"
from a 2011 FactMag article. Pretty cool history throughout and
all the tracks are sick. A good gateway into some stellar OG jungle
artists and record labels.

☠️ I read
".tk top-level domain"
page on Wikipedia which was pretty much only used for illegal
online activities until Meta sued them. I can't believe they got away
with this for so long; the Internet is nuts.

🦾 I read
"When Robots Got Muscles"
by canmom. This article traces the history of when modern art
and media moved toward a tendency of depicting robots with a more
organic and humanoid look. As an avid fan of cyberpunk media, this one
really got me and is well-researched!

☕ I read
"Reflection Mapping History"
by Paul Debevec. This one's a quick journey through the early
history of reflection mapping in CGI from the 1970s until the early
1990s.
