馃憢 When things are too much, I hideout in my secret lab and make music. When things are going ok, I run an electronics company. When things are going real real good, I am away on my ranch in the Coronado Mountains.

I'm doing some work on my remote mountain property at the moment. Last night I brought the truck up to a neighbor's ranch to fill up some water bottles from their well. They invited us to take showers, and made us dinner. I can't image the reaction in the city if we knocked on a neighbor's door and asked to use their faucet :) Around here, it would be rude to NOT stay for supper.

Eighty days ago I started a programming project which is due in a few weeks. In order meet this deadline; I have been at this workstation on average 17 hours a day, seven days a week ever since. Before starting, knowing what I getting into, I took some care in setting up some very intentional user input devices to test out in a full grind mode situation. At VCFMW last fall, I picked up a NOS ps2 MS Intellimouse (ball mouse with a wheel). I removed the original (black ALPS) switches from a vintage Dell AT101W keyaboard. I replaced them with newly manufactured white ALPS clone switches (from Matias). After 1360 hours of non-stop typing work, I give this combo full marks!

A collection of anthropological field recordings documenting the early musical traditions of the first generation of solarpunk homesteaders circa 2031. https://tymkrs.bandcamp.com/album/the-great-off-and-on-again I've noticed we've got a few bonafide solar punks on this station, so I thought I would share some music I wrote to capture the feeling of getting out there and doing it for real.

You all are great. I was pretty sure the internet was over, but here you are. Thank you all for taking the time to post logs.Writting music can be a very isolating activity. Now that Subsurface Vol 1 has been published, taking a break to read all of these little posts about your lives has been perfect medicine. Knowing you are all out there experiencing small victories, setbacks, worries, and connections is a good feeling.
