Aielli would do things like collect up 6 different versions of the same song and play them sequentially. Talk about driveway moments! I kept paper and pen in my vehicle to jot down performers & pieces so that I could purchase them.

You thought you knew Austin? John Aielli was a voice of Austin for 50 years on public radio.
He promoted so many artists, writers, and others doing work that might otherwise have gone unnoticed. Glad we met you, John.

It's fall somewhere, officially, so to celebrate, for you Austin oldsters, here are some John Aielli quotes that I made into silkscreens.
(I'm sure that I just used too many commas and in the wrong places but oh well, the president hates me.)

Here’s the photo of Futura, the latest mural by Antonio Cotecchia (Kotè), adorning the walls of Aielli (Italy)—a striking visual that captures a young woman, holding the planet in her hand, a powerful metaphor for responsibility, hope, and our shared future 🌏

a bit different, but I'm recalling accompanying a Zen teacher to a radio interview* where he was asked, "If Zen is all about being present, why do you go away on retreats?"
The teacher replied, "We go on retreats to take a break from retreating from our lives."
