I was a fan of Hyetal’s work before I knew his name thanks to Cexman’s brilliant Archbroseph Mix.  The song in that mix, Gold or Soul, is simple yet vast. This track is a level up.

Hyetal - Phoenix

The Secret Sun by Tanya Johnston

I don’t have much to offer right now other than three songs, loosely related.

I love Ffffound, and I love that despite my inescapable cynicism, thousands of people are somehow able to trudge through and make excellent stuff.

Yulquen - Autechre
Departures - Closer Musik
Absence - Clark

If you haven't seen this talk by Seth Godin on quieting the lizard brain, it's easily worth 18 minutes of your time:

It’s been a while, a little too while…

Sara got me a print of this Chad Hagen piece that had been making the rounds:

I get the general method of how he constructed it, even if I didn’t match it aesthetically:

I had fun constructing this, it was akin to playing with legos. Today on Reddit someone asked, “If your twelve year old self saw you today, what would he say?” He would probably say that that thing was pretty cool. Then hopefully he would get a realistic sense of perspective on his age and enjoy the hell out of being twelve.

Maybe being 25 isn’t that much different.

In supplement, here’s a shot of the print framed and lit:

I’m particularly proud of that lighting solution I’ve concocted. I’m sure it will make Ben proud.* Especially when it falls down in the middle of the night electrocuting my right foot.

*I believe this is one of Ben’s clamps, too.

These songs inspired me to fire up Live Writer. Commodore 64 + DubStep = Joker

Do It - Joker
Radiates (Joker Remix) - Primary 1 & Riton
Purple City - Joker and Ginz
