Anthems, Sin and Sing Sing

It was a fairly dead night. Or maybe my set drove them away. Anthems, sin and singing. Not necessarily in that order. I think I might be losing my touch, or it could just be that so many were away for the holiday weekend.

Those who were there (a few of my usual "stalkers" and someone new from Brittany) were appreciative, but probably also tired. And the numbers just weren't there for a huge conversation.

But Nickel was kind enough to help clean up my random (aren't they all?) color-changing particle script. It worked great when I tested it out, though I haven't tried to edit it yet. It definitely looks more elegant and direct than the cannibalized approach I'd taken with all the extra, pointless variables that were survivals from an earlier random shape-morphing script.

Started a bit before 6 pm (SLT) due to a missing Ceawin, and eventually checked my e-mail to realize that Lolo would be a no show thanks to what I thought was paying work, but turned out to be an anime con.

Miranda July on TSOYA

Just plugging this interesting interview with performance artist, Miranda July. Found it in the archives of The Sound of Young America -- it was an "of related interest" link to the recent Nellie McKay interview, described briefly in the previous blog posting.

Miranda July is a fiction writer, film maker and someone who, as a recording artist, sort of follows in the "tradition" of Laurie Anderson and other "hard-to-classify" acts.




The Sound of Young America: Miranda July

Too Short? Or Too Long?

I was late, it was the holiday weekend. Whaddayawant? I was stuck in the car for about 40 minutes, listening to this "Sound of Young America" interview with Nellie McKay. It's not especially revealing, but it does include an interesting solo version of "Mother of Pearl". {Dance Break!}
