• @PitcherOfSummer @Le_Berger I am not sure. I think they have issues with distribution stateside. It's there on Amazon, it's just expensive in reply to PitcherOfSummer #

• Spent much of the day in the garage being frustrated while trying to tune up the truck. Turns out I need two, TWO! (2!) specialized tools. #
• Replacing a fuel filter should NOT require a specialized tool. #
• Changing the spark plugs should NOT require a specialized tool PLUS possibly having to remove the intake manifold. WTF FORD? #

• Corn Smut! I have biked down to a local corn field and collected some smut. AKA "Porn on the Cob" http://t.co/HBjVCSqX #
• Mmmm. Smut tastes good. #
• This is smut. We have eaten some of this smut. It was good smut. http://t.co/XJgTWN2E #
• @DaveSeidel I've heard of that. I prefer the Mexican/Aztec word Huitlacoche in reply to DaveSeidel #
• @DaveSeidel We've never found it before. Supposedly it grows best in drought years. I saw it while driving past the field. There's a TON. in reply to DaveSeidel #
• @DaveSeidel I guess there's a squick-factor to the name smut. And the American palate is dainty & easily frightened. in reply to DaveSeidel #
• A conversation with @disquiet has reminded me that I was going to set up an aeolian harp by the garage. #
• At least there's plenty of love on @twitter for the John Cage centenary. #cage100 #

• The new @cinchel 12" is 45 RPM … does that make it a single or is it an EP? #
• It's helpful that John Cage was born in September so that we can celebrate his b-day with some wild mushrooms. #
• @mrdankelly the same question could be posed to sound composers. What do you think? in reply to mrdankelly #

• Tonight I'm listening to vinyl records by @twitter friends. Just finished @cinchel's excellent 12", now on to @noisician's excellent 12" #
• @cinchel I'm not sure. I think you'd be best off talking with the @noisician himself. I've got his split with @lassemarhaug and it rules. in reply to cinchel #
• @cinchel I'm not sure. It's probably an EP, since there's no focal track. Of course if you choose an A side then you get to have a B side! in reply to cinchel #

• @BrewCrewJess Are you not having them mailed to you? in reply to BrewCrewJess #
• @DaveSeidel "Abstract Expressionism" is a specific thing wherein the latter part does mean something. That's why I'm almost … 1/2 in reply to DaveSeidel #
• @DaveSeidel 2/2 … uncomfortable using the term "abstract" to refer to my music. in reply to DaveSeidel #

• @DaveSeidel Good question. in reply to DaveSeidel #
• Jangly folk duo plays at the pub. Bad acoustics + crowd noise + simplistic songs =narrow audible frequency band. May as well have been drone #

• @alextemplemusic Alas, you're not the first to ask this! in reply to alextemplemusic #
• @alextemplemusic @DaveSeidel A more precise question: how do you recognize your definition of identity when working in sound? in reply to alextemplemusic #
• Do you use Dolby? "no, why reduce noise?" – Zan Hoffman #
• This is the newest sound work I have made. http://t.co/bP4S8VfP I worked it up last night. #
• @alextemplemusic Interesting. This sounds like a conversation that would be better had outside of twitter. in reply to alextemplemusic #
• @alextemplemusic One definition for identity I'd give is that it's the "how" in how you do things. in reply to alextemplemusic #
• Most disagreements are purely semantic. Two people who disagree passionately about the definition of one stupid word. #

• @DaveSeidel Do you think about it after the sound is done? I can't help but fix identity to recordings. Bad habit. in reply to DaveSeidel #
• Second photo of @mystery_bear and I. Plus pretty amaranth, and Brown Berry heirloom tomatoes. http://t.co/fHg2YceF #
• @DaveSeidel Have you ever tried to make sounds that were not identifiably "by" you? Were you successful? in reply to DaveSeidel #
• @DaveSeidel You imply that the identity in the sounds occurs after they're shared. in reply to DaveSeidel #
• @BrewCrewJess @DaveSeidel I'm working on something that's going to be released anonymously. in reply to BrewCrewJess #
• @BrewCrewJess @DaveSeidel I'm thinking about how my 'personality' is implicit in the sounds. Someone might guess that it's me. How? in reply to BrewCrewJess #
• @BrewCrewJess Are the sounds a part of you? Where do you end? in reply to BrewCrewJess #
• @BrewCrewJess Yes, it is natural to try to establish yourself by your work. Anonymous work subverts that urge. in reply to BrewCrewJess #

Just a whole bunch of photos from the Disquiet Junto Denver concert weekend, mostly from the soundcheck. All photos were taken by Carrie.
A few other photos can be found at earlier blog posts… here and here
–
Here’s me & Mysterybear hanging out at Casa Vuzh:

and another. Actually, I think I prefer this one… it looks like we’re in the middle of some discussion I don’t recall at the moment. Plus you can see this year’s tomatoes (you can see some brown berries in the photo) plus the pretty wild amaranth, and our ridiculously enormous spirea).

—

This was Radere’s set-up. Very organized.

—
—
Here’s Cody Yantis’ set-up:

and another:

—
—
This was my set-up. You can actually see the glass I used for the glass harp portion. It’s got two contact mics taped to it, a piezo disc and a piezo ribbon. Each goes to a different bank of effects.

—
—
Here’s a bunch of artists on stage. Back to front, it’s Cody Yantis, Mysterybear, Ten and Tracer (crouching) and me.

—
—
This is another one like that, with Cody & Mysterybear, in this one you can kind of see Mysterybear’s set-up:

—

Dave Seidel (Mysterybear) and I chat in the background, while Jonathun Canupp sets up and Marc Weidenbaum of Disquiet tweets, or perhaps instagrams.

• Oh no… Blinky's dead. 🙁 RT: @99andBarry: RIP Blinky. http://t.co/c2AubGCV #

• @samgrinsell It sounds like we're pretty well in agreement. I have a few things to say on this topic in a bit. in reply to samgrinsell #
• @frauenfelder @boingboing Very sad to learn that Blinky the Clown has died today. http://t.co/S6FUzE9O #
• Ok, does anyone here actually agree with this thing about Creative Commons? http://t.co/cNkTkbsc #
• There is an assumption on the part of the blogger that people choose NC or ND for protection reasons. I don't think CC is about protection #
• At all. #
• Protection implies litigation… to me, anyway. That's the realm of copyright. #
• Has anyone ever tried to sue to defend their CC license? I'd be curious to hear it. #
• Perhaps the point I'm aiming for is that sure NC & ND are no more protective that the CC license in general-does that make them less useful? #
• I personally use an NC license, I am not a huge fan of the ND licenses, they make me grumpy, frankly, but it's up to the licensee innit? #
• Here's my reasoning: My license is CCBYNC if you want to use it for NC purposes you don't even have to ask, just do it, if $ is involved… #
• If $$ are involved then things are more complicated and perhaps we need to have an agreement with specificity. This is outside of CC. #
• If you want to get rid of NC, then does this mean commercial uses are allowed? That just does not make sense. #
• I have extricated myself from commercial music for a goddamned good reason. #
• I think the question of where the line is drawn between commercial and non-commercial use is a fair question-calls for MORE nuance, not less #
• Not every problem is a nail, so put away your goddamned hammer. #
• The 'commercial monopoly' argument is all well and good-hugs all around, but when someone's making money off your work and you're not…? #
• I assure you I am enabling no middlemen with my NC license. #
• "The ND clause is already the least popular, and discouraging remixing is obviously contrary to a free culture." I agree, and yet respect it #
• If you don't like the ND license, as I don't, and many of my peers don't… ENGAGE IN A DIALOGUE, don't just strip the license. #
• You need to approach this bottom up, not top down, assholes. #
• .@Le_Berger For me, I don't think that a derivative detracts from the original, it gives the original the ultimate compliment, actually. in reply to Le_Berger #
• See…? How fucking hard was that? #
• Totally fallacious argument that a CC license w/ NC or ND locks it into a hopeless dystopia forever. The OWNER OF THE LICENSE CAN CHANGE IT. #
• Well, I guess that article didn't agree with me at all. http://t.co/cNkTkbsc #
• @Le_Berger I tend to respect the artists' wishes with ND licenses, but respect doesn't mean I won't question it. in reply to Le_Berger #
• The larger culture is still proprietary and commercial, and you can't blame someone for not being as trusting as you are. #
• Creative Commons is a lever, not a hammer. #
• … and todays tweets mark further than I ever thought I'd go to defend the maligned ND license. #
• @DaveSeidel Oh, cool, did you meet Nina the other night? Her & Jeremy are cool folks. in reply to DaveSeidel #
• @DaveSeidel I should've introduced you! They're not very social (I can relate to that) but they're good folks. in reply to DaveSeidel #
• @jinjurly It seems your RT this morning sent me into a twitter-rant of much passion and a fair bit of grumpitude. #
• @jinjurly Yeah, the CC / copyright interface that transformative works need doesn't quite exist. In music they just brought the hammer down in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly … (2) so that now to do transformative works in music you almost have to do it pseudonymously / anonymously. So wrong. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly I think the widget makes it so much less confusing. If you can get someone to use it, answer the few questions, then there you go. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly It's possible I might be on board if there were a 'nudge' to choose a more open license as opposed to just nixing all nuance. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly I think we're all in agreement that those committed to CC need to do some more educating & proselytizing. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly Open licensing requires open dialogue. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly I dunno, I think the brief summary pages are pretty simple & understandable. The legal code isn't the first thing that comes up. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly Hard to disagree with that. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly Is there a lot of resistance to CC in fandom? in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly Yeah, so trying to trim down its proprietary bits is probably neither good nor bad from that perspective. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly I think an expansion is more warranted than a contraction though, that application is a good example. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly I think just talking about it in public as though it were a viable option is the only thing any one person can do. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly That falls into the same category as mashup / remixes in music that have to be "illegal" because licensing is so restrictive in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly Yeah, that's a conundrum. in reply to jinjurly #

There’s a brand new release out today by C. Reider!

It’s out on the excellent Linear Obsessional netlabel. After you’ve scooped up this release, I heartily encourage you to look into their other releases, because there are a bunch of very, very good ones there.

C. Reider – One of the Drone Boys
–
“A while back, Frans de Waard said in a review of my music …that he had been previously under the impression that I was just “one of the drone boys”. I was a little amused by this because, aside from my association with Drone Forest, I had… never actually put out much music … that could really be categorized as pure drone music. Drones have been an important touchstone in my compositions, obviously, but I certainly don’t think of myself as strictly a drone artist. So, I thought, why don’t I just get to it and put out real drone album? That’s how this release came together… although it’s ironic that now this isn’t actually going to be my first proper drone album, it’s been preceded by “Formerly Sine Drones” an exploration into perversions of sine waves. Oh well, there goes all the poignancy and meaning out of this release.
This one’s dedicated to all my fellow drone boys & girls.
–C. Reider, August 2011 (from the sleeve notes)”

• Peter Gabriel touring on the 25th anniversary of "So". Tickets ridiculously expensive. #
• Me Bizarro. Me conservativ. Me say more guns fix gun violence. Me want fix economy: reward people who broke it! Me fix Medicare: Ryan plan! #
• @tobiasreber It's predictably snobbish of me, but I preferred the solo albums before "So". Still, I'm tempted, never seen him live. in reply to tobiasreber #
• @dpnem Yeah, but where's the slime oozin' out? in reply to dpnem #

• OK that IS the hottest pepper we've grown all year. Holy poop. #
• I never knew this video existed until just now: http://t.co/CvMoXZ2E Moon Unit lip synching Valley Girl. It's pretty disturbing. #
• If the performance I have planned for the Disquiet Junto concert comes off the way I plan it, I wish I were in the audience, it's MASSIVE. #
• @newpractice I agree, it looks great. I'm considering going down there. Is there a really cheap place to stay (haw haw) for a night there? in reply to newpractice #
• @newpractice It'd have to be next weekend for your talk, because the show I'm working on is this weekend. in reply to newpractice #

• Was just reading about making music w outside parts of piano, this is similar. RT @djunto Instructions for project 33 http://t.co/yglc2Yki #

• They have one of those sky puppet, tall wriggling balloon things over at the store. I had no idea they sounded so awesome. #

• Alright you slackers, you have exactly 45 hours to change your minds and get on a plane for Denver: http://t.co/gImd1ftD #
• @citystarbrewing Hey! You guys need to brew your own root beer! Also a gluten free beer would be killer: one with actual HOPS bite. #
• @Gurdonark @disquiet @mystery_bear Good thing, that seems like what you've got in store for the weekend. HAZE. in reply to Gurdonark #
• @DaveSeidel @Gurdonark @disquiet At least you can rest assured that at least the haze isn't from OUR mountains burning alive! in reply to DaveSeidel #

• The venerable, bearded @mystery_bear is experimenting with possibilities for glass harp in the blue room right now. @djunto #
• Okay, @mystery_bear is back on his way to Denver to practice his set, which is fraught with danger! #
• The Disquiet Junto concert tomorrow evening will be streamed on Ustream. We will start streaming between 7:30-8 Mountain Standard time USA #
• The UStream link will be tweeted by @disquiet before the show, so keep an eye on his twitter feed. #
• Regarding the UStream thing, @disquiet should have a channel set up so we can link to that, might be easier to find the stream that way. #
• If you aren't here in Colorful Colorado, this stream is mandatory viewing folks. There WILL be a test. #
• It's too bad 7:30 PM MST is 3:30AM for most of Europe. @djunto #
• Looks do-able for Australia, though. #
• @Gurdonark Russian sage. in reply to Gurdonark #

Tomorrow evening!

The Disquiet Junto concert that will be happening tomorrow at 7:30 or 8PM Mountain Standard time USA will be streamed live: video and audio on UStream

I’m told that there’s no way to link to the specific show stream until the link is live, so if you follow the Twitter feed for @disquiet that’s probably the best way to find the correct link on concert night tomorrow. You’ll have to watch it, it should hopefully be posted on his feed by 5:30 or so.

Please tune in if you can, it’s going to be great!
