The pursuit of unique and exotic modes of synthesis leads only to sheet metal and Kapton tape.

Pleasantly baked, about to pass out reading Borges again. Bummed about baseball, but enjoying beer and frozen custard in my first Cleveland summer. Haven't been online much, haven't wanted to be, although I genuinely love and miss all of you here.

Final: Guardians 6, Cubs 5 Cleveland splits the twin bill and is now 6-4 to open the season, with two series wins and one tie against three postseason hopefuls. Not too shabby.

Is it just me, or does D'Onofrio in the new Daredevil thing look like Cleveland's own kingpin Tim Misny?

I may or may not have bought a Pasquantino jersey following Italy's stellar WBC game today. I feel like even though I'm a Cleveland lifer and my grandpa was a Yankees guy from upstate NY, the two of us would be rooting for this fantastic team together, if he could've been around for these games.

A lot of people are going to be listening to "Trilogie" around the world today. We lost our queen. For me, the way I experience sound at the deepest fundamental level can be divided into "Before I heard Eliane Radigue" and after.

Warm enough day in the basement to finally rig up the Juno, Poly 800 and TX81Z with the big Peavey board and MIDI arranged via the Kawai. It's grand to be able to integrate these old machines with my modular system, and to be able to sequence on them via several different key beds too.

Hey J-Ram? How many more days until the first @CleGuardians #SpringTraining game?

José Ramírez stands near third base, looks towards the camera and holds up two fingers with his right hand. He wears sunglasses, a blue Guardians pullover and a red Guardians cap.

I've got a new slab of shimmering drone wall from the Ziggurat out today for the low price of €4 from the lovely Adventurous Music in Leipzig. "Cored" is not hollow, as the name implies, but it is a chord, as the name implies. adventurousmusic.bandcamp.com/album/cored

I'm so excited that Spring training is this close. Not as excited as Hedgey is, though.

I've got three new albums out (Milieu and LSZ) for free on #BandcampFriday, plus 21 more marked down to free for the weekend. Here's a photo of my asshole cat for no reason. milieu.bandcamp.com/community Top post there has a list of all the free stuff. Stay warm, fuck ICE, be safe.

Good going, Bandcamp. Fuck the so-called artificial intelligence. First against the wall when the revolution comes.

As usual, a sincere thanks is owed to all of the brilliant artists and good friends on Bandcamp who have spoiled me by offering me reams of quality music for a beyond reasonable cost. I wish every day celebrated your work like Bandcamp Friday does. Thank you all.

I know Cleveland is the right place for me to have moved to when two realtors, our home inspector and now today our electrician are vocal geeks about the baseball team here. I have found my people, and it feels wonderful.

Staying in a very quiet rental house and reading Brian Evenson might be something I regret doing, given the content of his work and my general dread about buildings that I am unfamiliar with, but at the same time, moving and packing has sucked so bad that just having nothing to do but read is divine

Thanks for everything Mark, especially "Battle of the Bands," something so fundamental in my creative development that it cannot even be estimated.

Hedgey homer. Jose nearly hitting for the cycle. Deviled eggs with bacon and fresh jalapeño. Lots and lots of weed. If there's anything else happening in the world, I don't really care. Unless it is more of these things. #GoGuards

Very sad news today. The E352 is one of the most interesting and unique machines I've ever had the pleasure to use. Paul will be sorely missed. synthanatomy.com/2025/03/paul...
