This is for people who need honesty:

Do you want to help but don't know how? Have you not volunteered since community service was required in high school but want to? Do you desperately want to do something but the idea of giving up your only free time is a big hurdle?

I got you.

100% agreed on the album and the cover. But this photo is the first time I’ve seen the colored vinyl. Thanks!

Today, was a truly wonderful day for field recordings.
I finally put a small field recording setup together, including my Zoom H5 studio recorder, with a windshield, a contact mic, and a geophone. It’s great to record the world around you through this magnifying glass.

I wonder what five classes you were taking when I was in college, Kevin. I’m guessing:

1. Use a Tissue to Blow Your Nose
2. Which Shoe Goes on Which Foot
3. Numbers Beyond 20
4. Zebras Are Not Striped Horses
5. Chew With Your Mouth Closed

Knowing there will be much disappointment following today’s upcoming Harry Styles’ MSG Ticketdisaster presale, I’m planning to tell my daughter not to worry, because I have a direct line to an expert on pop megastars, and she will fix this for us. @anniezaleski.bsky.social, I’m begging you.

AI music could never do easter eggs, have crazy automations, pitch bends in weird places, chord progression switch ups, that “thing” that every real artist (novice & professional) has in their music.

There’s no such thing as happy accidents because AI always strives to be perfect.

This new crop of kids and early 20 somethings will never know the flow state you had to enter to write a 10 pg paper due at 11:59pm when it’s 8pm pre-chatgpt. The league was more physical back then

That’s beautiful. Where is it? I also spent much of the day outside shoveling ice-crusted snow, and your video reminded me of our summer trips to the ocean at Assateague Island, Virginia.

Joyeux anniversaire to French composer Éliane Radigue (b.1932) who turns an incredible 94 years of age today! Her work is proof that subtlety can be seismic, and that the smallest shift can change everything. Long live sustained tones, deep attention and Éliane Radigue!

"This is sound art that doesn’t fetishize process, even though the process is clearly rigorous. Ristić’s strength lies in knowing when to intervene and when to step aside, allowing the environment to co-author the work."
