About the Ill Crate

You may be asking yourself, “What, pray tell, is the Ill Crate?”

Back “in the day,” the Ill Crate was an old fruit crate into which I stuffed all of the most wonderful records and video tapes I owned or stole. Today, the Ill Crate is a combination of a hard drive and dusty shelf into which I’ve stuffed all the illest tunes, dvd’s and video games I own or have stolen. Residing in the Ill Crate are the great monuments of contemporary art. Negativland is here. Blade Runner is here. Shakespeare is here. There may even be a copy of ESPN NHL 2K5 lurking somewhere in the deeper recesses of the Ill Crate. Bottom line, the Ill Crate is my “Happy Place.”
