NME is reporting that the Nine Inch Nails ARG Year Zero is poised to become a TV series:
Frontman Trent Reznor said: “We’ve got a producer on board and have met with writers. We’re about to pitch it to the network, so we’re a couple of weeks away from meeting all of the main people, and we’ll see what happens.”
I’m thinking probably very little happens, but we shall see.
I’ve been kinda keeping an eye on Year Zero, the Nine Inch Nails ARG/experience/not totally shady and fairly organic marketing campaign. Yesterday evening, there was a live event in Los Angeles, not too far down the street from my office. So off I went.
The gist of the event was that Steve Peters from 42 gave out 1″ buttons to players when they showed up. There’s a large Year Zero mural on Melrose at Ogden. We were to meet under the pig on the mural, and follow the aim of the revolver across the street to an unmarked van when it arrived. The van arrived around 7, and we completely stopped traffic on Melrose in order to cross the street to get to the van. Good times.
The van contained heavy kits for each participant. Most of the kits were identical, but a few boxes marked with a red star contained cell phones for further gameplay next week. Yeah, I didn’t get a cool box. I’m pretty sure that the few people to whom Steve gave yellow pins got the red boxes.
One of the things inside the box is a bandanna with the Art Is Resistance flag on it. The photo here shows the Anti-Robot Militia bandanna that I got at a live event for The Beast in New York way back in 2001.
Other pictures from the event are on Flickr here.

After all that, I went out to a gig last night. It was disappointing, but this is now.
A Nintendo Wii moved in to my apartment a couple of days ago. I really enjoy bowling.
I ordered a pink Nintendo DS from Japan recently. Actually. Back up.
I ordered a pink Nintendo DS from Hong Kong. It’s entirely possible that I did something dumb during the Paypal process. whatever. It ended up being negligent, because after the thing didn’t show up for a couple of weeks, I got a nice letter from the US Postal Service telling me that the package was broken into while somewhere in New York and that the contents had been stolen. There were, like, forms and stuff so that I could file a claim. Needless to say, I keep forgetting to do that.
I ordered a second Nintendo DS from Japan. This one came sharpish. It is pink, and it is yummy. I know that because this one time I ate it.
I have four games so far, one of which, Mario Kart DS, can be used with the NiWiFi service. Apparently, between 5:00 and 6:00, there are all sorts of people online. I usually only find one person to play against. My record pretty much stinks. This is perhaps due to my refusal to play as any character other than Peach.
