Speaking of FIRSTS 🙌

I’ve often had trouble explaining the word “schmuck” to international students. But now I have this video.

Big big thanks to AIR for supporting Audio Flux AND everyone who submits a fluxwork for Circuit 04: FIRSTS (!)

Am 100% not objective but I do find this charming & worthy of more eyeballs. If inclined to, plz share with yr teenaged and/or animal-loving friends! youtube.com/watch?v=ea7nxA…

Plenty of time to make something poignant or sassy or provocative or charming or fictional or hilarious or experimental or gripping or beautiful or deep or simple or cathartic or cacophonous or mysterious or musical... or something else entirely! But you maybe should start soon.

Not every day a podcast you've been working on for nearly a year launches 🎉 Congrats to my colleagues CANADALAND esp. Alan Black & our (reluctant) "star" of the show alan robert irwin. TWP is... not like the other podcasts. Promise. open.spotify.com/show/2Dkx7B0gN…

Lovely to see another promising audio gathering on the horizon. "By the sea" no less! 😍

Tumbled down a rabbit hole, looking for a scrap of clip art that I never found. But never mind that, what a trip to revisit and organize this pile of musings, documentation, scraps, questions, searching, sometimes finding, life in every key! Remember handwriting?

Sun Ra’s application to NASA’s art program.

One week! Plenty of time to craft a little audio gem... in theory.

Just listened to this record for the first time in decades and I could *taste* it. Utterly, happily destroyed. seam.bandcamp.com/album/are-you-…
