This succotash with garden squash & tomato, corn & Lima beans was so good I ate it days in a row. Plant based eating has led (in my case) to more energy, much, much lower cholesterol, more endurance, lower blood pressure, etc. etc. #plantbased #vegan #homecooking #garden

After more than a decade working as a chemist I returned to performing electronic music in 2003. Audiences asked for recordings of my ambient music. Finally I released a CD of performances. Here's one of the first reviews of that album: hypnagogue.net/2013/09/02/w... #electronicmusic #ambientmusic

William Gregg makes his entrance into the ambient and electronic world with a set of live electro-acoustic pieces. Having this disc on hand has led to those moments when a song comes up in shuffle …

I'm editing the recording from my August 30th ambient concert and the piece "Timor Mortis" with electronic drones & live ambient autoharp!!! turned out amazing. I will definitely use more diatonic autoharp blending with the synthesizer music in future concerts. #ambientmusic #autoharp

Another shot of Christene & me. Music to reach towards a future that emphasizes beauty and gentleness that rejects the fascist industrial brutality of the 20th century in favor of uplifting art that points to a mature and thoughtful way of life in the 21st century. #ambientmusic #electronica
