I don't know how many people on this list are familiar with Momus's
musical work (which was a significant part of my teenage years), but it
may interest you to read his wikipedia profile:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momus_%28artist%29

"He is fascinated by identity, Japan, the avant-garde, time travel and
sex."

Just the sort of person I would expect to break down in tears at the
mention of a one-button mouse, so I'm not entirely surprised by this. I
am rather surprised he is writing for Wired though. What other British
regional talent can we expect to see in that journal? Graham Norton?
