@disquiet Perhaps an implicit goal of these projects is education? in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet It might be interesting to require some amount of research for a future project, then! 🙂 in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet I meant textual research, reading that tweet back I'm not sure I worded it to my meaning. in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet ha. in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet I got your last tweet just as I sent the other. in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet I'm not sure of the form it could take, but I just had the idea that it would be interesting to make explicit the educative aspect in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet The idea popped into my head "I wonder what a sound version of a book report would sound like?" in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet Of course that doesn't seem like much fun though, does it! in reply to disquiet #
Tired of working this weekend. Not done yet though. #
@c_a_harebell Lots. The meter kept refreshing. I scrolled through 100 or more. in reply to c_a_harebell #
@mystified131 Depends on what we ate! in reply to mystified131 #
@snooksarmy Write a script. Or a virus. in reply to snooksarmy #
@Le_Berger I don't think the opinion you just stated, (one that I agree with) is shared by most people. in reply to Le_Berger #
News media are not doing a good job explaining the dominionist idea of Santorum's comment about Obama placing Earth above man. #
@c_a_harebell Are they more dangerous than Islamismists? in reply to c_a_harebell #
@erstlaub Fah, don't say that. I'm a fan! Maybe not hardcore, but a fan, alas. #
Serious question: Regarding sound, do you draw a line between music and not-music, and if so where is that border? #andwhy #
RT @c_a_harebell Wait… I can't answer this in a tweet, why the hell are you asking a question like this on twitter? #
@Gurdonark Is the difference between attentiveness and non-attentiveness then? in reply to Gurdonark #
My Top 3 #lastfm Artists: Closer Contact + Meteer (16), Soap&Skin (13) & Faust (9) http://t.co/tvPbaNRK #
So much to do, so much to do. #
For some reason @twitter won't let me post a long tweet, even though it's 5 under the limit. ? #
@mystified131 Ooh, watcha gonna do in Chicago? Be sure to see that Bertoia at the Aon Ctr. There's often cool sound art in Millenium Park. in reply to mystified131 #
And http://t.co/nK4q4vJG & @sonicsquirrel RT @quartertonality There should be a last.fm plugin that allows one to scrobble from bandcamp #
@mystified131 That sounds great, hope you have fun! in reply to mystified131 #
@dpnem It's going to be a really great exhibition / event. Preparation-wise, I feel like I'm at least a month behind. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem I'm looking forward to being able to finally see and hear this thing I've been working on for almost half a year. in reply to dpnem #
I may have to work tonight, and I may have "Silly Love Songs" stuck in my head, but at least I don't have to watch a Kenneth Branagh movie. #
"He's a 'mixologist,' not a 'bar-tender."
"so?"
"so, he doesn't mix drinks, he curates them…" #
@Gurdonark We need more activist coders in the netlabel community. in reply to Gurdonark #
Oh look, here's the full size version of the frog sculpture I'm making a mold for. http://t.co/nFOq8vdn #
Hm, it's even on Wikipedia. http://t.co/PqJY4pSH -Oh, famous anthropomorphic frog, I grow tired of you. #
@falsereactions I heard that the other day, it's good, nice job! in reply to falsereactions #
RT: @dpnem: @dylanorchard Too much to listen to, not enough time. #
@dylanorchard True. In fact, Musique Concréte was in part a direct reaction against discordant Serialism. in reply to dylanorchard #
@grahamdunning Downloading now. Thanks for the reminder. in reply to grahamdunning #
@falsereactions I'll believe it when I see it. Wasn't there supposed to have been a new Aphex a year or two ago? in reply to falsereactions #
@TrAiskin Fanx! in reply to TrAiskin #
Back to the anthropomorphic boozer frog. I'll be happy when this job is done. #
@cinchel @Le_Berger Who says ruination isn't welcome? 🙂 in reply to cinchel #
Something that's been bugging me appears to be resolving. Whew! #
No dialogue is not the same as silent RT @flipcritic The best silent film preceding THE ARTIST? Probably @andrewstanton's WALL-E first half #
@flipcritic I see your point, I just think one must give a lot of credit to the sound design. in reply to flipcritic #
@noisician That's a hefty quote. I wonder what he meant by that. Do you know the context? in reply to noisician #
Sierra Nevada Ruthless Rye IPA #
Legendary Pink Dots – Chemical Playschool 8 & 9 #
@noisician What was Gorey's take on the quote? That art was incapable of being happy itself, or that it cannot be a vessel for emotion or… in reply to noisician #
♥ I Dream Of Jeannie by The Legendary Pink Dots http://t.co/1t7ifCkO #
I'm beginning to have heavy dreams about the sound art exhibition / performances… guess I'm pretty excited and anxious about it! #

@mystified131 What would sound good in the last store you were in? #obliquefailurestrategies in reply to mystified131 #
What would Jesus do? #obliquefailurestrategies #
It needs to be way louder. #obliquefailurestrategies #

The next 2 months of releases on Vuzh Music will be complex, edgy ambient music from Colorado artists! #
For now, though, you should enjoy this month's release by Mystified "instability remastered": http://t.co/29k2uPE1 #
@dpnem I'd probably go so far as to say 'bad form' on the artist's part. in reply to dpnem #
@cinchel I hope you're having fun with it! in reply to cinchel #
@dpnem Does that make up for having to have seen the Phantom Menace again? in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem Ah, yeah without the depth perception I'd imagine it'd be pointless. Just the same movie only dimmer. in reply to dpnem #
"I trusted them." 🙁 RT: @danspock: Proposed slavery museum leaves a trail of questions. http://t.co/riHXd2te #
@DawnPutney Dawn, does the ArtLab space have internet service? in reply to DawnPutney #
Uh, no. This Kate Bush LP does not sound good at 45 rpm. #
@grahamdunning That's the best top 3 last fm list I've seen in a while. in reply to grahamdunning #
@larkinhavens As long as it didn't eat your brains, it's alright. in reply to larkinhavens #
@grahamdunning Well, I listen to my music a lot when doing mixing / mastering. Rarely otherwise. in reply to grahamdunning #
@grahamdunning Other people I know listen to little else but their own music. in reply to grahamdunning #
@dpnem What do cats have to do with it? It's publishers you should hate on. in reply to dpnem #
Rock bottom isn't a good place to be. Best wishes for friends and family in recovery. #
@_stretts I haven't been listening to much ambient so far this year, but I am enjoying the new Restive. http://t.co/jz0P9unr in reply to _stretts #
@dpnem Yeah, I don't know why details about a popstar's dead body had to be the top news story for me. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem I stopped watching TV so I could avoid this kind of crap. News aggregators need better filters. in reply to dpnem #
Funny, I was just googling sound sculpture. RT @ubuweb Essays by artists surveying future directions of sound sculpture http://t.co/S2iZawcP #
Man. Netlabel releases have eaten up all the space on this hard drive. Time to clear out some of them. #
My Top 3 #lastfm Artists: Hans-Joachim Roedelius (20), Meshuggah (13) & Blut Aus Nord (10) http://t.co/tvPbaNRK #
The only way I know @twitter changed everything yet again is by the complaining on my feed. I've tried to avoid the site since "new twitter" #
@Gurdonark I hate site hacking. I've been hacked twice. Hope this resolves with little loss. in reply to Gurdonark #
@dpnem I don't understand irrational antagonism for a type of animal. in reply to dpnem #
@leonrosado I prefer Kurt Vonnegut for this! 🙂 in reply to leonrosado #
@hugoverweij Yeah that's an interesting one. Are you following @liminallistener ? I post different sound art things I find on that account. in reply to hugoverweij #
@Gurdonark Your site's hoster should have a backup of your site if they're worth their salt. in reply to Gurdonark #
NP: "Despite the Downturn: an Answer Album" – Hey it's still good! Even if it is almost 2 years old! http://t.co/K0uwffAd #
I get so into listening to new netlabel music, sometimes I forget to listen to something that's over a year old. #netlabelshelflife #
@disquiet I try not to use it when referring to running netlabels. It's another of those words with eroding meaning. in reply to disquiet #
SRSLY. Colorado folks should see this. RT: @mcadenver: West of Center closes this Sunday. Don't miss it. http://t.co/lgnjGFOk #
RT @Mark_Van_Hoen: MoMA Announces Major Retrospective of German Electronic Music Pioneers Kraftwerk http://t.co/HVSgLioO #
@Gurdonark Alright! Sometimes the archived version might be out of date, but if you don't do tons of updates, you're probably good. in reply to Gurdonark #
When I was a kid someone like Santorum would've physically punished his son for the 'sin' of listening to the band Megadeth. #megasantorum #
NP: http://t.co/twtF40br #
@disquiet Ooh, I look forward to that interview. I saw him speak in Chicago. Very interesting work he's done. in reply to disquiet #
@disquiet Plus, sound art for the deaf is something that's really been bothering me, so I'm curious to see what he's got to say abou ti. in reply to disquiet #
I am listening to Faust and worrying about some things, and preparing for an email flurry. What are you doing? #
@hecanjog I don't know much about coding music, but it seems intriguing. I saw a lecture by Peter Kirn about Programming, very interesting. in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog I don't think so. It was pretty informal, actually. Cool though. in reply to hecanjog #
@Gurdonark That's great news. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark Eek. Maybe I'm weird but that makes me think of this: http://t.co/e63JNBBP in reply to Gurdonark #
@Gurdonark There was also a holding tank implosion and large molasses spill by where we went to church when I was younger. in reply to Gurdonark #
NP: Constance Dubs by Grey Deer: http://t.co/QmFnMZnn #
@leonrosado Checking twitter really quick, then getting ready to commute to work. in reply to leonrosado #
@cinchel Yeah, like Weezer! They were awesome! 😉 in reply to cinchel #
@cinchel Hm. Yes, I think I like that. I wonder if her other music is any good. in reply to cinchel #
@Gurdonark @grahamdunning Ah, some of my stuff is on there too. Plus a remix of one of my trax by Melophobia. Now listening. in reply to Gurdonark #
I got all philosophical and weird about temporality & meter today. I wasn't ready yet when I made this: http://t.co/DYRMUw6z #
@c_a_harebell Such a womanly woman. in reply to c_a_harebell #
@leonrosado Thank you, Leonardo. My weekend has just begun and the second beer has been opened! in reply to leonrosado #
@cinchel Kind of a Pink Dots / Miranda Sex Garden mashup vibe going on in reply to cinchel #
@cinchel Well, I will admit that they were effective pop in the early days, but I never liked them. in reply to cinchel #
Firestone Union Jack IPA is a really goddamned good beer. Very bitter w/ grapefruit and rosewater notes. http://t.co/T4n6QKjS #
@mystified131 Oh, I've tried that one, and it's not to my taste. Interesting though. in reply to mystified131 #
@disquiet I haven't seen that one around. I'd be interested to try another white ale, given my disagreement w/ the Blue Moon variety. in reply to disquiet #

I am listening to underground cassettes and working on a centrifugal casting mold for a sculpture of an anthropomorphic frog. What you doin? #

@grahamdunning Congrats on yr netlabelversary! Right now I'm on musical hiatus while I work on a sound art exhibition: http://t.co/k7XBdgKR in reply to grahamdunning #
@hecanjog That's why I embrace the term "experimental". Not all experiments are successes-you have to accept failure as part of the process in reply to hecanjog #
@grahamdunning Yes, it's been slightly unhappy not having a larger institution with a larger budget behind me to pay for shipping. in reply to grahamdunning #
@grahamdunning Still, hope you'll consider maybe a smaller entry, I've got a large space to fill! 🙂 in reply to grahamdunning #
Supposedly we're about to be hit with one of the 10 worst snowstorms in history. Being from Colorado, I'll believe that shit when I see it. #
@hecanjog My least favorite minimalist. in reply to hecanjog #
@Le_Berger The idea of compositional control has been a key issue in experimental music since the Schaeffer / Cage dichotomy. in reply to Le_Berger #
Sound art call for entries – deadline for proposals Feb 6 http://t.co/k7XBdgKR #
@Le_Berger Didn't mean to be pompous, just that the role of composer is a subject for much discourse. #indeterminacy #acousmatics in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger Personally, I think it's completely appropriate to dwell inhabit an in-between state. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger I encourage you to look into Pierre Schaeffer's ideas & contrast them w/ John Cage's – completely fascinating the differences. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger I agree, I'd often rather read Cage or listen to him speak than listen to his music. #
@hecanjog Hm. Good question. I've looked up the usual suspects (Wikipedia et al) & they're pretty unsatisfying. in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog Schaeffer's approach in a nutsell is that sound ought to be divorced from its context, listened to as pure sound-(#1 of ??) in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog He called this approach "acousmatics" a term based on Pythagoras' akousmatikoi. Pythagoras taught his students from behind (#2of?? in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog …from behind a curtain so that the facial expressions & body language wouldn't taint the pure information of his lesson. (#3of?? in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog Context therefore could be viewed in Schaefferian terms as "noise" interfering with the signal of compositional intent. (#4of??) in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog In its modern use, any music which has a message or point to it is counter to Schaefferian acousmatics due to its context. in reply to hecanjog #
@Le_Berger I agree with that entirely. That agrees with my philosophy, and yet I'm drawn to many Schaefferian composers. in reply to Le_Berger #
@hecanjog Lopez is a *perfect* example of a purist modern Schaefferian composer. Bernhard Günter is another. in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog It's obvious from my body of work that I'm a conceptual composer, but I do utilize the pure sound approach at times. in reply to hecanjog #
@Le_Berger Absolutely. I am comfortable with many approaches. in reply to Le_Berger #
@hecanjog Günter is really interested in space, probably growing out of his fascination w/ Feldman. in reply to hecanjog #
@Le_Berger Yes, it's good to know these ideas and where you ground yourself in the field of work. in reply to Le_Berger #
@hecanjog I've always used sound in materialist terms, but I'm not sure I conceptualize sound as material. in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog No, I'm actually behind on my listening of his work. I ought to catch up since Trente Oiseaux is a free netlabel now! in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog It's funny, the acousmatic composers often have the most interesting music-I'd rather listen to Pierre Schaeffer any day over Cage in reply to hecanjog #
That wasn't such a bad snowstorm. Off to work I go. #

Quote: "I'm still working through the idea that giving your music away means you think (and other will think) it's worthless." #
In my practice, worth and value don't come from financial gain. #
@saffronslumber Thank you! It's a pleasure pointing out the good stuff to people who may've missed it. in reply to saffronslumber #
Natural History Museums weighed down by their own history. #
@dpnem A few years before she was a household name I saw her in a small divey venue. Good show. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem Although it's weird that the pope photo was her jumping the shark moment, because it was actually a pretty brave protest action. in reply to dpnem #

@jshell Have you seen "the Corporation"? "King Corn" was pretty good too. in reply to jshell #
@jshell We just saw a great doc (not political) called Marwencol, definitely recommend highly. in reply to jshell #

@c_a_harebell Actually I think it was the RC-30 I was looking at… they're both Boss so I got confused. #
@c_a_harebell … but it looks like the jamman has an SD card, which would be pretty handy. #
@saffronslumber That's one of those automatic paper.li aggregators. I ignore those, usually. in reply to saffronslumber #
@Le_Berger Please don't drink and drive. in reply to Le_Berger #
Today we're visiting Denver Museum of Contemporary Art & El Museo de las Americas. #
@nofi I've used both Hover & Dreamhost with good experiences. in reply to nofi #
Drove down to @museo_americas but they were closed for a week. It'd have been nice if they could've put that on their website. Or twitter. #
@Le_Berger Good to know. in reply to Le_Berger #
@sebastienstars Dear me, you don't recommend the future? in reply to sebastienstars #
@tobiasreber A nice acknowledgement! Congratulations. in reply to tobiasreber #

@c_a_harebell Marc W.'s write-up about Zimoun: http://t.co/CTL3vYP9 #
@c_a_harebell Still looks good. Have you looked at Vox VDL1, or Electro Harmonix 2880? in reply to c_a_harebell #
Kim Jong Un is the Kwisatz Haderach. #
@tobiasreber I would love to see what you come up with. The entries so far have seemingly not read the text of the call for entries, sadly. in reply to tobiasreber #
Today we're going to see some Chuck Close art @ loveland, then Dale Chihuly art at @FCMOA and also a bird sanctuary. #
@c_a_harebell Shouldn't second thought it too much. A looper's been on my to-get list for ages. Better now than never. in reply to c_a_harebell #
@dpnem Who's Adele? in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem I wonder whether an artist ought to concern her/him self about what value the audience sets for the work. in reply to dpnem #
@jshell Why wouldn't it? Beards are good. in reply to jshell #
The one-eyed bald eagle at the bird sanctuary liked me. It made chirping and rasping noises at me and no one else. #
@Le_Berger I am happy when an audience agrees with me that the work is valuable. When they do not, I simply think they are wrong. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger From my perspective, making art is between you and the material, and it is, or should be an ever-shifting discovery process. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger The audience response does matter if the audience is the material the artist is working with, but it matters in a different way. in reply to Le_Berger #
What is the material boundary between decorative art and provocative art? #
@Le_Berger Hm? No disclaimers needed. Talking about this stuff is a process for me too. Ask me again in a year or two & I'll disavow it all. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger I like exchanges with you & others, trading ideas is important. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Gurdonark Good thought. Consumables just end up consumed. Products end up discarded. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Le_Berger Clearly distribution is a concern, and accessibility is a concern. I'm not only doing this for me, but … (1 of 2) in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger … the audience doesn't participate in the creative act — unless the audience is the material. (2 of 2) in reply to Le_Berger #
@Gurdonark @Le_Berger Yup, there's nothing wrong with profit. In my art practice, however, seeking this would be a distraction from work. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Le_Berger Yes. Access is important. I agree with this statement. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Gurdonark The poor lady, she had been shot & surgically reconstructed, then later contracted West Nile virus when she lost the eye. in reply to Gurdonark #
@Le_Berger The distraction would still be there, one would still need to manage accountings between business partners-seek new opportunities in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger For me the free model means open exchange between audience and artist, direct conduit, no distraction. in reply to Le_Berger #
Oh dear. http://t.co/i0PUmmgr I think this is a bad idea. I can't answer this question ever. Everything is both, and neither. #artornot #
@c_a_harebell I can answer the question is it good or not, but I can't answer the question is it art or not. in reply to c_a_harebell #
@c_a_harebell Is it a talentless hunk of shit? Sure… but the talentless hunk of shit is still art. Fucking Ricker shit is art. in reply to c_a_harebell #
@Gurdonark Presumably one doesn't say "break a leg" before such an ordeal. I hope everything goes smoothly. in reply to Gurdonark #
Finishing up our 11 North/Central Colorado museums in 4 days tour today with a visit to @denverartmuseum and our 1st visit to @Still_Museum #
Sadly, I became quite ill while at the Still Museum & we had to cut our trip short & come home. A drag. #
Fever. #
ow #
@c_a_harebell Not so much the sniffles as the exploding head. in reply to c_a_harebell #
Well, that was a miserable 24 hours. #

@cinchel Always include a link when you say something like that! 🙂 in reply to cinchel #
@dpnem Don't try to convince me, I'm not hearing it. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem Yeah, my new Sound Through Barriers website is getting a shitpot full of hits from FB too. in reply to dpnem #
@Le_Berger It should please you to know that due to @dpnem's mention of your work, it is flying off the shelves… very many downloads! #
@dpnem Ha! Hard to get rid of those language remnants. I still say "thank God" too, & I've long since shuffled off the shackles of religion. in reply to dpnem #
@particlezoo Do people complain that it takes too long to fill orders, like you should have a warehouse full of these somewhere? in reply to particlezoo #
We walked in Lyons today, picked some fresh juniper berries to have with some local gin! #
Direct messages on twitter are borked right now, I guess. #
It is my view that it's difficult and unnatural to remove ego from creative work. #
Halvah. #
@Le_Berger Never assume that good work goes unnoticed! in reply to Le_Berger #
@dpnem @Le_Berger A brand new piece just upcoming on Dystimbria, possibly tonight! Something to look forward to. in reply to dpnem #
@hecanjog I've been really dwelling on some of the acusmatikoi – I love their music, but I reject the philosophy. in reply to hecanjog #
@hecanjog I think any action you take creatively is an identifier of who you are, so ego is present even when you attempt to vanish. in reply to hecanjog #
@particlezoo Carrie & I work at a co. that does lotsa xmas business to-order. Our turnaround is pretty good, but ppl still are jerks. #
@particlezoo It's ended up over the years wearing down all good feelings I ever had about the holiday. It's almost over! #
NEW! The 6th piece of the Dystimbria continuum has been revealed! Alan Morse Davies contributes some gritty quietnoise: http://t.co/tE7ASdCp #
My top netlabel releases are currently narrowed down to 1.3 days worth of material. Snip, snip, snip. #
@cinchel What does it do? Will it make my life more interesting? 🙂 in reply to cinchel #
Another book on sound art has come in the mail! I need to read faster. #
@noisician Cage looms large over sound art, but pre-dates it. – Seth Kim-Cohen's book is quite good, not sure I agree w/ it though. in reply to noisician #
@noisician Dry… well… pretty heavy with theory. in reply to noisician #
My Top 3 #lastfm Artists: Muslimgauze (25), Brian Eno (10) & Stephen Vitiello (9) http://t.co/tvPbaNRK #
@atbense @tobiasreber The Laibach version. in reply to tobiasreber #
Man, there was a lot of good music put out on netlabels in 2011. #
@disquiet I'm glad you like it! I'm pretty fond of it too! in reply to disquiet #
@saffronslumber Interesting thought. You consume music even when it's free, you know. in reply to saffronslumber #
RT: @TrAiskin: Centrozoon. bleep! : http://t.co/IcVtt8ga #
@tobiasreber This is the only redeeming thing about the existence of that awful song. It exists only to have been covered by Laibach. in reply to tobiasreber #
@saffronslumber Until we are consumed, we are consumers. in reply to saffronslumber #
Dessert: Local popcorn, local chunk honey, local gin & (not local) blue cheese. #
You don't need credentials to be a part of the creative commons netlabel underground. #
Did I miss your best work this year? Let me know what you've released that you're especially proud of. #
@Le_Berger This is a question you need to answer for yourself. No one will be checking your credentials, so there's no wrong answer. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger Ah, yes, I have listened to that one. I'll happily listen again now. Have you heard NP's "Couleur"? another hexadecimal work. in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger – the greyscale work is even better than I remembered it, good stuff! #
@hecanjog Great, listening now! "Owning Extinctions" was my key work this year. in reply to hecanjog #
@Le_Berger Don't waste all those good veggies on impalement. At least use something like okra or eggplant that's not yummy. in reply to Le_Berger #
@dpnem Do you use captcha? Between a good captcha & akismet my spam isn't bad. Then I don't have as much traffic as you & Marc. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem I've never drunk a pumpkin ale, the idea of it seems as awful as fruit beers (lambic excluded). in reply to dpnem #
"I was going to say something about meat curtains…" RT: @c_a_harebell: #fuckedupbento http://t.co/1I8wnSgF #
@disquiet Well, have a good time away from Twitter, and have a happy new year! in reply to disquiet #
Still re-capping netlabel releases 2011. I've got my faves whittled down to 24 hours worth of music. #
22.7 hours! Whittle, whittle. #
@dpnem Funny, I'll drink a cocoa porter, or a coffee stout, but a fruit beer? NEVER! (Lambic excepted) in reply to dpnem #
On "curating": http://t.co/ohkC1l1q #
@dpnem Yes, the "wunderkamer" was an early iteration of the museum. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem This approach is now seen as top-down and therefore elitist, but it's v. interesting. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem Most museums these days have undergone a "paradigm shift" and attempt to be as educational and un-elitist and acccessible as possible in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem They don't always succeed at this, and some try harder than others. Museology is fascinating. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem This article interests me because my independent study right now is in curatorial practice (ergo the exhibition of sound art) in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem I like how the article points out the fluidity of language – especially apt since netlabel heads have adopted the term. in reply to dpnem #
@dpnem AVAM absolutely appears to be a post-paradigm shift museum. I'd love to visit. in reply to dpnem #
@Still_Museum Hm. Seems like the people at the Clyfford Still Museum have some good taste in music! in reply to Still_Museum #
@thinkprogress: @snooksarmy Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner _IS_ a large posterior. #
@dpnem I avoid iTunes hate by sticking with an old version of iTunes that works – never updating. in reply to dpnem #
@disquiet Also C. Theron is kind of a rubbery emotionless doll of an actor. in reply to disquiet #
Annoying that all the grumpy jerks are all warm and friendly for a few days before xmas. Me, I just stay grumpy & jerky all year long. #
@Le_Berger Thanks kindly! in reply to Le_Berger #
@Le_Berger Huzzah! Prog 4-evah! or maybe that should be 5-evah! in reply to Le_Berger #
Very close to having my best of 2011 netlabel list. I'll probably write the post this weekend, and post it when no one's paying attention. #
@Le_Berger Keep stretching! in reply to Le_Berger #
Erased Silent Night (after Rauschenberg) by @vuzhmusic via #soundcloud http://t.co/314SVYf0 #
@Le_Berger That didn't stop me: http://t.co/lSsdnJRG in reply to Le_Berger #
@mrdankelly Or this: http://t.co/NRyzSsNh in reply to mrdankelly #
I don't have to work until next year! Woo hoo! #
Mystified did a version of Silent Night http://t.co/evClHpAB and I did too http://t.co/NRyzSsNh Contrast and compare. #
@mothra_stewart All the good gum & money is down there. in reply to mothra_stewart #
@Le_Berger Ha ha. Speechless! in reply to Le_Berger #
Oh shit, internet, are you going to be boring all fucking weekend? Where are all the ATHEISTS for crying out loud? #
@snooksarmy A boring internet should be a sin. If there were a god, it would be. in reply to snooksarmy #
My year in creative work, re-capped: http://t.co/qcL4bc0T #
@hecanjog Wow, thanks for saying so! in reply to hecanjog #
