Like the English Parliament? hmmm....itannexe wrote:From Wiki:
'Owls are an order of birds of prey. Most are solitary, and nocturnal, with some exceptions... though owls are typically solitary, the literary collective noun for a group of owls is a parliament'.
this board is becoming a parliament, hmm unsettling as fuck...

Re: What's up with the owls?
Surprised not to see the owl quote from this Boards of Canada interview come up in this thread:
Also, damn, this thread revived from 2008? I hope this forum survives. What a piece of internet history.
The owls are not what they seem..."When I was a kid, about five or six years old," Mike Sandison is saying, " a relative of mine had one of those tacky ceramic owls on their mantelpiece, and it had multifaceted diamante eyes. I as totally obsessed with those sparkly glass eyes, for ages. I felt like looking into them was like looking sideways though everything, right through time. That's what we're trying to do with our music."
