Did a live #ModularSynth improve for the music major seminar today with #LinnStrument, #ContinuuMini, and #Wingie2

Just finished a long St. Patrick’s Day gig at a bar. Somewhat inebriated patron called for us to play “Loch Lomond.”

Me: you know that’s Scottish, right?

Drunk guy: I’ll tip you $20 each if you play it!

Me: “Oh ye bonnie, bonnie banks, and ye bonnie, bonnie braes…”

This week, the exhibition I worked on with artists Sara Mast and Kevin Tracy at Echo Arts in Bozeman, Montana is coming to a close. So, without further ado, here's a copy of the sound and video installation for posterity, in glorious binaural audio. Enjoy!

Did some mic surgery today replacing a shattered grille. Pretty sure someone had dropped an amp on it…
Took students to tour the new studio facilities - still under active construction.

From what I've observed, people who claim that LLMs can replace artists don't understand art, people who claim that they can replace musicians don't understand music, people who claim that they can replace writers don't understand literature, and people who claim they can replace translators don't rely on translations. If I had a button that would erase LLMs from the world but it would take machine translations away (which is a false dichotomy anyway), I would absolutely still press it.
Finished submitting a grant application. Let the waiting for a response commence…
