The Return

I have been meaning to post for months, and it's begun to seem overwhelming. I've had something like fifteen events in the last six months, several new pieces of music, several new pieces of art, and a very busy teaching schedule. There was so much I wanted to post about... art I saw... ideas I had... new sounds I heard. Really too much. Literally. To dig up all the old notes and type them up would take weeks. And so instead I've decided to simply start afresh, tabula rasa. And why today? Well, really two reasons.

One of them being my participation in a public art project by Adrian Piper called "Everything #10" which requires me to have the message EVERYTHING WILL BE TAKEN AWAY tattooed in henna on my forehead. Backwards, so that I can only read the message in the mirror. And I am supposed to blog about it for the next week or so while it is still visible. More on this project funded by Creative Time later.

I was also shamed into it when an old friend emailed me to say "dude, every morning i check your blog, and for two years now - nothing's new!" It's an exaggeration. But still.

So. Here I am.

Hi!
