• @tobiasreber Only music where *the idea of* form was neglected. in reply to tobiasreber #
• math/art are opposites? No musician would say that. RT @DenverArtMuseum math professor uses equations to create art http://t.co/ZNaBLF7s #
• This is really damned good: RT @Steve_Hamann And with that, my big, big drone for this week's Junto: http://t.co/1A5q0V7L #
• Evacuation for @AndrewMichler and @newpractice from the hot and dangerous High Park Fire. Hoping for the best. #
• New iPod shuffle has a voice that announces the song info. It sometimes seems surprised at what I'm playing: He Can Jog!?! @hecanjog #
• Also: weird pronounciations! Eye-anise Zeena-Keys #
• I'm catching up on netlabel listenings and having more than a few experiences of "what in the hell drove me to download this?" #
• @dpnem You could but it'd be incomplete. in reply to dpnem #
• @tobiasreber Form is a subjective cultural construct. Nature makes fine unformed music. in reply to tobiasreber #
• @dpnem Yes, however this lineage is unavoidable. It is what it is. in reply to dpnem #
• @tobiasreber Where is that border? in reply to tobiasreber #
• That new release that I mentioned by He Can Jog is really good: http://t.co/cIpVMGh2 #
• @Steve_Hamann Oof, that's a harsh criticism. I could barely stand that show, except for the season & a quarter that it was alright. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
• Oh shit. I just realized that Mitt Romney reminds me of Jack Shephard from the show Lost. No wonder I think he looks like a creep. #
• @Steve_Hamann Then again, that tweet could describe, say "2001: A Space Odyssey" in reply to Steve_Hamann #
• @jinjurly That looks yummy — even though I love fernet by itself. in reply to jinjurly #
• Many water-laden airbombers flying overhead. I suppose I should try to record one of them. #
• 2nd day of the #highparkfire it's 22 square miles, has jumped the Poudre canyon. Here is the smoke plume on radar: http://t.co/rkSOiP4e #
• @jinjurly Fernet is the tops. One of my favorite things in the world. in reply to jinjurly #
• Holy shit! RT: @coloradoan Satellite image sequence showing substantial growth of #HighParkFire smoke plume http://t.co/8jyYYK7t #
• @jinjurly I started drinking it with ice, but then moved to drinking it straight from a little cordial glass: http://t.co/n13itd4Q in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly Uh oh. in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly Oh, I just saw that. Almost anything worth doing is Sysiphean and tedious! in reply to jinjurly #
• @jinjurly I was "uh-oh"-ing at the fake eyelash fascination. in reply to jinjurly #
• A good sound practice session. A terrifying sound. I need a bigger mixing board. #
• … and better monitors. #
• Another trip to @citystarbrewing… IPA needs work, but the stout is pretty great. #
• Preparing the next Vuzh Music release… it's a good one! #
• @mrkvm Dude, sadly I know what you mean. in reply to mrkvm #
• @mrkvm Last show I went to, there was a kick-ass chick who went and confronted every asshole who was talking… still very distracting. in reply to mrkvm #
• @mrkvm It didn't used to be so bad. I'm not sure what changed in the last 5 years or so. in reply to mrkvm #
• New release on Vuzh Music is live, official announcement tomorrow. #
• @mrkvm Okay, actually, now that I think about it, I was complaining about this back in the 90s, so it's probably always been like that. in reply to mrkvm #
• @dpnem Geez, no I missed that. Thanks! in reply to dpnem #

• @_stretts Thanks for the recommendation! I'll check it out. in reply to _stretts #
• @pearlclutcherNW You are very welcome, thanks for listening. in reply to pearlclutcherNW #
• I've received an enquiry from a certain influential magazine re: the best ways to learn of netlabel releases. Any leads I might've missed? #
• @_stretts Thanks! in reply to _stretts #
• @Steve_Hamann That's the best way, yes… but for a major publication like this it's probably unworkable to just poke around. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
• Hopefully I've just done a few netlabel resources and artists a big favor! My recommendations are away. #
• @ValhallArts That link takes me somewhere other than I think you intended, better link? in reply to ValhallArts #
• I need to write some mini reviews of netlabel stuff. #

• @AndrewMichler This fire never would've happened if it weren't for OBAMA & his socialist regulations! @jcloudm @repcorygardner in reply to AndrewMichler #
• Interesting conversation at my other twitter about music as a tool of territoriality / aggression / exclusivity. #
• Whoa, the wind has shifted. cough cough… #smoke from the #highparkfire #
• my eyes are stinging * bombers growling overhead * the sun orange-brown #
• They ought to come out with a @twitter variant that only lets you post in proper haiku form. #
• @computerneix @cinchel 'Sup Jakes? 'Sup Chin-Kale? in reply to computerneix #
• @mrdankelly I use Echofon… there's an add at the top, but no ads embedded within the feed. in reply to mrdankelly #
• @mrdankelly Oh wow, that sounds good. in reply to mrdankelly #
• @tobiasreber I would like to find a good podcast though. Aside from Composing with Process. in reply to tobiasreber #
• One problem reported with the .zip file of the new Vuzh Music release of Jeph Jerman's drones, anyone else have any issues? #
• @cinchel Jangle, jangle. Please sing about the woman what done you wrong. And America. #soulfolk in reply to cinchel #
• @implicitorder Alright… I might be able to slap something together. in reply to implicitorder #
• I tweet too much. #
• @Steve_Hamann Thanks, worked fine for me too. in reply to Steve_Hamann #
• I've been listening to this, it's really, really good. RT @dpnem Last week I reviewed "South Gare" by @sonotaphonomy http://t.co/7kQz3bYr #
• I think that @goodreads ought to add shelves for 'set aside for now' and 're-reading'. #
• The opposite of power is not weakness. The opposite of power is subversion. #
• @invisibleagent Thanks! I like some of Bing Satellites stuff. I'll check those out. in reply to invisibleagent #
• @dpnem I would say that "curator" is a bit of an overglorified word to use for someone who runs a netlabel. Netlabel head, or manager maybe. in reply to dpnem #
• @dpnem Netlabel engineer. in reply to dpnem #
• @mystified131 @dpnem I like that some of the nomenclature of this community is still unsettled. in reply to mystified131 #

• Trying to put together a twitter list of creative experimental music types on twitter. I'm not following many, apparently. #
• I mistweeted earlier!! I meant to say experimental music creative types… IN COLORADO. D'oh! #
• @strangeduck Oops, I mistweeted earlier, I meant to say experimental types in Colorado, I'm following many otherwheres. in reply to strangeduck #
• @strangeduck Although I see I wasn't following you here, I follow your stuff on soundcloud. #
• Deleted earlier tweet so as to not cause further confusion / heartache / murder rampages. #
• @dpnem My heart goes out to those thirteen families whose lives were forever altered by the tragedy caused by my tweet. in reply to dpnem #
• @dpnem @Le_Berger @cinchel Do they even have bad luck in Canada. Maybe they just wish someone a really good show. in reply to dpnem #
• @disquiet @dpnem My main Mac is 13 years old and, yeah… it's starting to show some lag. in reply to disquiet #

• I knew it! The Socialist menace! RT: @repcorygardner saw first combine in field cutting wheat. And yes, the combine was red. #
• I've noticed fewer downloads of Vuzh Music stuff over the last year or so, but more page visits. I wonder if people are streaming more? #
• @cinchel 🙂 in reply to cinchel #
• Stuck in my head: a mash-up of Gordon Lightfoot's "If you could read my mind" and Whitney Houston "Greatest Love of All" Thanks a lot, brain #
• Tom Ellard is grumpy about OSX Loin: http://t.co/GtKDxwad #
• @dpnem Yup. "Sound Art" too. I suspect words don't mean anything. in reply to dpnem #
• @invisibleagent Thanks again, adding those to my weekend explorations. in reply to invisibleagent #
• First they came for the podfic'ers RT: @jinjurly: i'm starting to get really tired of hearing about wrongful dmca takedowns against podfic. #
• You know you've crossed over the line when "noise" means 'annoying to other people' not 'annoying to me'. #noiselife #
• All-right. That's bad ass. RT: @dpnem: #dronelifebumperstickers http://t.co/d8kizICt #
• @ENE_RVA Funny, I was just re-listening to it with a less critical ear. There are a couple of tracks I like. Not great, though. in reply to ENE_RVA #
• .@ENE_RVA I suspect there's only so far you can take this re-imagined history thing. #hauntology #nostaligia #hauntologyisastupidword in reply to ENE_RVA #
• @kimcascone Tweet me something. I promise not to read it. in reply to kimcascone #
• superhat #
• If I had a few "live forever" wishes to grant, I'd definitely give one to @MargaretAtwood … IF she wanted it. #
• Discover your common patterns and abandon them. #
• Please everyone: never mention Trent Reznor again ever. #mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh #
• I must admit, I'm going through another phase of being alarmed at how much my body is degrading. #gettingoldsucks , however, #entropyrules #
• Yes. RT: @MargaretAtwood: @vuzhmusic: Thank you, but I agree with bioclock. Sooner or later, one's time runs out. Boring otherwise. #
• @disquiet ! RT @NAISASoundArt The Discussion Every Father Should Have With Their Daughters -… http://t.co/QL0bQIBx #
• Asemic grooves: http://t.co/IzqGFGf1 #
• @Gurdonark Well, an autoharp isn't especially monophonic. in reply to Gurdonark #
• Live mouse trap arrived. I suspect I won't have the car repaired by Monday. These things are related. #
• @Gurdonark Argue your way out of that! in reply to Gurdonark #
• If you're interested in setting aside all the bullshit for a while: http://t.co/HJ0sIYox #
• @Le_Berger Yes. Equally contemplative and provocative. in reply to Le_Berger #
• Suddenly my feet are feet of mud, it all goes slo-mo. I don't know why I'm crying… am I suspended in Gaffa? #Iwantitall #
• @alextemplemusic Alex! You're in Chicago now? I was out there in November, great town. #
• @dpnem I listened to the Marta Zapparoli pieces at work, nice stuff, thanks for the recommendations… always! in reply to dpnem #
• Look at that artist list! RT @PBK_ This comp from 91 is now available free download at the Internet Archive. http://t.co/Wbe3Xyp3 #
• @tobiasreber @disquiet @designingsound Ah, yeah I know Craig Collorusso's Sun Boxes… I missed seeing them in Colorado due to my exhibition in reply to tobiasreber #
• @dpnem I have *thought* of it. Maybe someday I'll import the stuff onto archive or sonic squirrel. in reply to dpnem #
• @dpnem I don't know if there's too much benefit to it though, other than a backup in reply to dpnem #
• @dpnem I guess in general I'd prefer people come to the website, because they're more likely to listen to more than one release. in reply to dpnem #
• @dpnem Archive is great for a single release, but not so great for nudging someone to get more than one thing. in reply to dpnem #
• @dpnem It goes without saying that yes, you are a rare bird that will do that. in reply to dpnem #
• Surprised at how many no-derivative CC licenses there are for netlabel releases. #
• @dpnem Yeah, I know! in reply to dpnem #
• I'm formatting a bunch of mini-reviews, will probably publish on my blog this weekend. #
• @djunto I had been thinking about remixing some tracks too… in reply to djunto #
• @djunto I hadn't specifically looked there. in reply to djunto #
• No derivatives = a monologue. There are other CC licenses that allow a dialogue. What are you afraid of? #
• Tonight, I am remixing a track for the Implicit Order. It is going in a different direction than I had planned. Intuitive composition FTW. #
• Remix done… ended up prettier than I wanted, but hey… Off to the pub for a pint. #
• @djunto Yes, they almost seem like remix "stems" or sample food. in reply to djunto #
• BEWARE: Town is full of soulful guitar-jangling folk singers. #
• Apparently a few people are having issues with un-zipping the new release on Vuzh Music by Jeph Jerman. Look for a fresh file later tonight. #
• @alextemplemusic I was attending a symposium on sound art at SAIC. I'd love to go back, but no plans. in reply to alextemplemusic #
• The #highparkfire is now rated the most destructive in state history. At least 112 homes have been destroyed, 1 dead, 20% containment. #
