  1. I haven’t been tooting, but I’ve been working!

    Nearly three months of work on my *Inexplicablities* project … a document for each composition, consisting of thoughts and reference materials, each followed by a conversation with Anthropic’s Claude to develop ideas and gather resources – a very powerful research tool and assistant!

    In addition, a summation of the entire Inexplicabilities suite itself, including Claude’s extensive responses to my request to “evaluate the entire project as a whole, experiencing it as a reviewer/critic/devil’s advocate – objectively identifying successes, weaknesses, and errors or failures.”

    Be careful what you ask for – there’s now a high probability that one piece will be trashed, and a new one developed from a different idea altogether.

    Not a single note, not a single sound will be sourced by generative AI. The only material actually coming from Claude in the finished work will be three brief stanzas of verse I authored in English, and had Claude translate into Latin – which was then sent to a helpful professor in Brown University’s Classics department for vetting.

    (It’s been over 50 years since my high school Latin days!)

    It’s exhilarating these resources are finally established, and though the compositional process is just beginning, it’s great to have a “bible” at hand instead of starting in a complete vacuum.

  7. Are you looking for honest, raw, emotional electronic pop?

    Do you like synthesisers, equality, kindness, darkness, occasional whimsy and concept albums?

    Well hi there #mastodonmuso #fediart and #synthesizers people!

    I'm looking for the indie community here... #bandcamp brilliants, #subvert sweeties and maybe #Mirlo mates who might like to support some of my 21 albums, 12 EPs.

    I have a lot to offer in terms of support, friendship and collaboration too.

    Check out my bio for links. #thankyou

  8. hey! belated #introduction

  9. I’ve been running silent for a little while …

    but I haven’t been idle. I’d like to announce an ambitious project:

    over the next year-and-a-half to two years, I’m planning to compose and perform – for commercial release and distribution – a collection of immersive audio pieces I’m calling *Inexplicabilities*.

    (Please forgive the blatant self-promotion … this is my baybay!)

    I’ve got the beginnings of a web site up; here it is:

  10. #Ensoniq's #ESQ1 was my second synth, but my first sequencer. Worked overtime all summer of 1986 at a Greek restaurant to buy it. Sounds were a little rough around the edges, but that was part of the appeal. In retrospect this was a solid, affordable, well-designed and surprisingly durable beast of a machine. Good times! 🎶 ⚡ 🎹 👍 😁 #CherryAudio #Synthesizers #SynthWave #Electro #Music #Musicians youtube.com/watch?v=YAsD3GOC-aI

  11. Hello all. I have started work to collect sounds from old synths samplers and toys, collecting work from all places on the net to keep these things alive. If you wish to help me out with or have something I don't let me know! I've set up a folder so all can join on syncthing, but if yall want to I can always put it up on Resilio or something.

  20. The biggest lie that social media perpetuates is that people who play synths actually have room on their desks for ornamental stuff like cacti and VHS tapes they want to flex on.
