5 years ago, I spent a month n Puebla, MX getting a treatment called HSCT for multiple sclerosis.
After chemo and a bone marrow transplant, I was fixated on this coffee maker in my room. I had my D100 and recorded this shit out of it. This was a nice day where I felt like my old self for a while.

Cats under bed, sheltered by guitars.

Before I oil this hinge, I have to record it. That’s how sound law works.

The first album I ever recorded with my high school band, The Birthday Circus, was in 2000. We used a conference cassette recorder in the middle of the garage and blocked the drum kit with trash cans/blankets in a poor attempt to reduce the volume. I need to find this recording…

The only good orange things.

Cat, drink and socks.

This is all I really wanted from having a security camera.

My cat is into Terminator 2…

The cassette player in the middle won the best sounding motor, but ate a tape in the process. Chaos reigns.

What's your 10/10 album?

I’ve been looking into getting a new cane and think that I’m entering the alligator or duck handle era. What would you choose?

My wife made cookies and I think our cat wants one…

My cat watches my wife eat dinner and half-ass paws at the food. It’s kind of adorable, but sometimes I am unimpressed that he doesn’t fully commit.

It appears my love of audio started on Xmas day in 1987, in a basement that had shag carpet.
Also, that haircut. Yikes 😬

Just recording some strange breathing…

I used to be a localization dialog editor for 22 languages for automatic external defibrillators. I also made the metronome sound for the CPR functionality of the devices. When I had to test that function, my desk was a little creepy. I did learn CPR though. What a weird audio job…

Playing with a Moviola Squawk Box for some noise generation.

In the sunlight, it’s hard to be a void-cat

Four games I’ve worked on!

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains.

As a sound person, I highly recommend recording vocal goats.

Hiding kind of worked, tail aside…
