oh, my band page on the corleone site is fully operational, with a little picture of the album even. the album looks upside down because that’s how it is– when mike t was laying out the cover he wasn’t clear on the template orientation, and that’s what happened. i’m fine with it, but brian o thought i would be mad, mike figured i’d be into it but brian would be mad, and presumably the press thought mike would be mad (just to tidy things up). in any event there’s nothing that can be done about it except tell people they can turn it back right-side-up if they want to. man, it’s too bad interactive isn’t a buzzword anymore (but it’s nice that it’s an actual thing).
today i went to lunch with my mom at the pickle barrel and then as promised me and jon knapp drove to framingham and jawed-out about 20th century piano music. i told him i was getting more into noise and he asked me what noise-rock bands i like and i told him the stuff i like isn’t like rock bands at all. we were listening to a david tudor album and it sounded like can’t, so i’m going to make him a mix tape in trade for loaning me all those sun ra, jimmie rodgers, steve reich and glenn gould cds.
mom, i remebered what it was that word i couldn’t remember, regarding space as defined by all electromagnetic radiation rather than just that in the visible spectrum. the word is “hertzian”, or “hertzian space”. can you believe it? it was hanging right there in front of me, so obvious.
hey, i’m just putting this out there- does anyone have one of those player pianos that takes discs with midi files on them? i’ve started writing midi piano stuff and i’d like to record it on a real piano.
fujichia: ease up, bro!
