LOS ANGELES – Two of Los Angeles’s most sinister blogs have joined forces with the release of a new joint feed called “L.A. Noir.” By blending their syndicated feeds into a single source, the editors of 1947project and 8763 Wonderland give their readers a one-stop shop for new and historic information on their sun-soaked city’s darker side.
1947project blogger Kim Cooper says “Although our subjects are separated by more than 50 years, Rodger’s ruminations on contemporary crimes and human depravity illuminate a very similar Los Angeles to the one Nathan and I blog about. Los Angeles has always attracted edge-dwellers, and when they decide to kill each other, they’ve always done it with panache. We look forward to adding other noir-themed blogs to the L.A. Noir feed, and are excited to offer this time-traveling, virtual anthology.”
Half of the blog posts come from 1947project (http://1947project.blogspot.com), a daily recounting of historic true crime and offbeat human interest tales, each retold 58 years from the day they happened, often featuring visits to the crime scenes as they are today. The work of idiosyncratic architectural and social historians Cooper and Nathan Marsak, 1947project has been featured in the LA Times Magazine and at LAist.com, which said “We can't imagine our daily routine without it."
8763 Wonderland (http:// www.8763wonderland.com) is the online home of award-winning journalist, author and documentary producer Rodger Jacobs. Wonderland, says Jacobs, is a dark blend of fact and fiction with a decided emphasis on exposing the underbelly of the L.A. terrain. "I love L.A.," he says, "but day by day and story by story I'm deconstructing the myth that Los Angeles is the most pleasant place on earth to live. Tell that to Sharon Tate or to the millions of aspiring screenwriters and actors destined to die in obscurity and poverty, unknown to anyone outside their immediate families."
