Other Projects
In 1989, Nitzer Ebb collaborated with Die Krupps on an updating of its classic “Wahre Arbeit Wahrer Lohn” single on the Machineries of Joy EP. Having worked with Alan Wilder on 1991's Ebbhead, Douglas McCarthy returned the favor, appearing on Recoil's 1992 album Bloodline, on the electronic reworking of “Faith Healer,” the Alex Harvey classic. McCarthy also appeared on Recoil's Unsound Methods album in 1997, providing vocals for the tracks "Incubus" and "Stalker."
McCarthy appeared with Empirion at 1997's Tribal Gathering (a performance that was broadcast on BBC Radio 1) before embarking on a new career in video production. Since working with Terence Fixmer, he has lent his unique vocals to collaborations with Motor, Kloq, Warren Suicide, a duet with Sarah "Client B" Blackwood on Client's "Suicide Sister", and Die Krupps on another reworking of “Wahre Arbeit Wahrer Lohn.” Homotronic's ironic "U Look Like a Gay" also features an uncredited performance from McCarthy.
Bon Harris began the Maven project in 2001 in Los Angeles, California, and has worked with Marilyn Manson, Smashing Pumpkins/Billy Corgan, Bush, and Depeche Mode. In 2006, Maven released "Mary" as a 3-song digital bundle including the songs "Candidate" and "Silverbirds." Three additional songs were released via its MySpace player: "In Still Love," "Hard on for Love" (a cover version of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds featuring Marilyn Manson), and "Jesus, Mary, and Jennifer Louise." The current status of the Maven project is unknown.

Famous quotes containing the word projects:
“But look what we have built ... low-income projects that become worse centers of delinquency, vandalism and general social hopelessness than the slums they were supposed to replace.... Cultural centers that are unable to support a good bookstore. Civic centers that are avoided by everyone but bums.... Promenades that go from no place to nowhere and have no promenaders. Expressways that eviscerate great cities. This is not the rebuilding of cities. This is the sacking of cities.”
—Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
“One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
