  1. Reading about composer Carl Stone in the 11/9 New Yorker -- part of a story about LA-trotting chowhound Jonathan Gold: http://is.gd/4Tpwp
  2. @Billforman Yeah, Githead -- same guy, same group. They're cool, especially in finding a common ground between pop and abstract electronics.
  3. ♫ Audiostreams for the afternoon: sneak listen to excerpts from forthcoming @robinrimbaud 'Conversations with the Dead': http://is.gd/4SP9e
  4. RIP, Albert Elms (b. 1920), film & TV composer (notably for the trippy Patrick McGoohan thriller series The Prisoner): http://is.gd/4SBDb
  5. ♫ Afternoon free audio-stream: a 10-minute exercise in glitchy dub from DJ Erase (aka Daniel Troberg): http://is.gd/4RYJh
  6. A: "The hum of time." Q: What did Nabokov's unpublished work need to survive before his son felt it was publishable: http://is.gd/4RTD4
  7. Morning sounds, post-sleep/pre-wake: muffled helicopter coming by from distance resembles, for extended time, an off-kilter foghorn.
  8. MP3 Discussion Group: Is new John (Ultravox) Foxx & Robin (Cocteau Twins) Guthrie album shoegazeriffic or too new-agey? http://is.gd/4R9J5
  9. Morning sounds, in sequence: alarm (ancient-school hip-hop), alarm (snooze-breeze r&b), refrigerator, garbage truck.
  10. @defjaf Glad you dug Stephenson's Anathem. Agree he needs to learn "show, don't tell." Only bad Bond villains explain their master plans.
  11. Morning sounds: hard drives, shower, free MP3 of Jack Dangers remix of Terry Riley's "In C" -- via @richard_kadrey: http://bit.ly/4ApBIR
  12. Gym music: a whole lot of Stones Throw Beat Battle renditions.
  13. In the mail today, three albums: one LP, one 7", one CD -- what year is it?
  14. @DrFausty That is the go-to language for compressing short sentences into long words.
  15. @GlueAll You are so right.
  16. @lucent2cents Man, thanks for the kind words.
  17. @JeremyMeyers Tis the season, more or less.
  18. Just had that "wish there was something I could listen to while I'm listening to this" feeling. Must be a word for that.
  19. Finally saw Visual Acoustics, great doc film on architecture-photographer Julius Shulman. Good lite-glitchy score by Charlie Campagna.
  20. Morning sounds: five hard drives whirring, three ice cubes crackling, one bus passing.
