In Black mirror, Selma Hayek replaces God as the creature to "debase" in a ranking of classes. Mere grunt who watches "tv personalities", tv personalities themselves, and God
One chooses what one is sentimental and retrospective about. One chooses what one is regressive about, as well. I'm certain many exist who spurn digital photography and thus adhere to the "puro" methods of analogue photography.
Spanish people live in states of extremes. I assume this is from the extreme Catholic culture they experience as youngsters, whether they practise the religion or not. After childhood, they retain a state of adolescence until one day, decades later, they are simply suddenly old. #spain #sociology #SpanishCulture
My observations tell me that most people ask leading questions, whether they do it consciously or not. Most people already expect a certain answer or at least a certain form of answer when they ask a question. My goal is to stay ever-open to exploratory conversation. Neurolinguistic programming is for assholes.
After shaving with my "safety" razor, I adore the miniscule stings from the myriad tiny cuts when I rinse my face afterwards.
Why is "Real to Real Cacophony" one of my most preferred albums? Because I choose for it to be. #BareMusic #taste
My opinion about the benzodiazepine epidemic in España is that "La Gente Del Mar Mediterráneo" generally think that appearance is ultimately the most important aspect of living. This creates exponential exterior pressure to conform to perceived norms. Thus the excess of anxiety. I'm not personally affected, really, but it is apparent all around me. I laugh and laugh, but with a furrow on my brow.
I'm trying to learn a little J every day - open my mind to a programming language way.
Free association of words to name people they immediately remind me of.
The act of simply writing a task down, and especially in ink (or pencil for you anachronistic types) increases the possibility of completing it (that day). The concept fascinates me.
I'm amused that humans with Obessive Compulsive Disorder usually cannot stand each other simply because they are obsessive-compulsive about different things.
A thorough search of my antiquated external hard drive revealed the voice messages from Hela I used for the Botanical Gardens piece. It will be elaborated and improved on for the so-called "Electronic" album. #music #hela
As an old friend who is now consigned to the wastelands of southern Arizona used to say: "ANOTHER ONE!"
Now I obliterate the old file with something explicately thurked. Let's try it.
I seem to be testing the gemini "twtxter", for lack of a better name currently.
I've been awake for half an hour and I already feel the pressure around my eyes. I shall just have to deal with it and begin a semblance of a routine today - and get some creativity DONE.
Blearily I attempt to concentrate on concentrating on Gibbet. I have no success. I shall listen to Christian's newest synthesizer noodlings instead. More later, I hope.
The bass and vox are now integrated into Union, though the latter needs a few retakes. Now to wake the universe with a cold shower.
English Breakfast resides in the pale green cup, waiting to be sipped or gulped or otherwise imbibed. Now to get back to work on Estrellas Oscuras and then Pony Ride. Fuck um.
I have fixed the search engine for the http version of martenblog, as it was previously based on a now defunct MongoDB apparatus. #programming #martenblog
I added percussion to the most 'ambient' part of A Parchment, grubbying up the 'ambience'. From the first, I'm paying quite a bit of attention to placement and movement in stereo space of each part. Fuck um. #JogMyAmnesia #music
A Parchment is somewhat developed now. Should I leave it for my session with Matthew or come up with an ending sequence - an ambience reflecting the initial part? It's for Sweet Entropy to decide. #music #JogMyAmnesia
I'm meticulously entering notes into the SQ-64 for the second UZ part of Billard Tournament. #music #NineSidedDie
The ever changing piece of music related to the ever changing name (currently A Cubic Light Year of Sod) is slowly being pieced together. What I call the 'Magma part' is written, or at least mostly written. It sounds nothing like Magma. #music #NineSidedDie
I eschewed much of the modulation I keyed in to Supercollider yesterday for some simple randomization of the filter cutoff & wave shape given a triangle wave on Mullah. I found a good fog hornish sound emitted by fiddling with the dry/wet control of the hall reverb. So the intro of A Cubic Lightyear of Meat is slowly fleshed out. I'm not anywhere close to satisfied with it, however. #music #NineSidedDie #ACubicLightyearOfMeat
I'm pausing from writing in Supercollider the synth arps for the introduction of A Cubic Lightyear of Meat. Writing in this way is tedious. I need constant breaks. I need a quick CV sequencer for SBUP when I retrieve it.
I have the gear that I shall take to Spain. What is left is only sufficient for practise, so no more recording until Europe! #music
Olšanské Hřbitovy is in the state I'll leave it until settling into music making again in Spain. Much is still work in progress, but I'm satisfied with the skeleton. #music #ResidentBeatPoet #NineSidedDie
I begun the arduous task of writing and recording 'tentative' parts to the second section of Olšanské Hřbitovy. The piece is becoming very involved. #music #ResidentBeatPoet
Hoy es un día de vagancía. Thus, I have practised and I DID re-record the verse sections of I'm the One Flying, but otherwise, I feel as if I've been pressed into lassitude's eternal mud-pit. #music #lethargy
I'm managed to expand Olšanské Hřbitovy to perhaps twice its length, though the latter half is badly underdeveloped. I continue to listen and take notes. #music #ResidentBeatPoet
I've relearned and redone a bit of Olšanské Hřbitovy. I shall concentrate on the as of yet unwritten second half during the next few days (or WEEK, vole). I'm thinking to send a scratchier version to Kris earlier in the composition process to see what ideas he may come up with. #music #ResidentBeatPoet
Deleriously lethargic day. My brain smites me. I cannot smite back! Two improves seeped out somewhere, and one is actually listenable. Fuck um. #music #improvisation #lethargy
Miniature #4 'Precluded Poet' finished, a modal experiment with different pentatonics over minor and lydian chords. Renata bookends it. #music #BronzePomegranate
For Full Spectrum Records, possibly my future nemesis, I've created a non-normalised version of #PaganPark. It sounds surprisingly good. I'll send it off possibly later today. #music
Monobiopsychosis is finished. The mix is muddy, but that is ok for now. Overall, the guitar parts accentuate the lugubrious atmosphere. #music #BronzePomegranate
The matra-bass I've LAID OUT is excellent. I'm not sure of my absolute groove capacity, but fuck um. #music #BronzePomegranate
