simple is hard! | Sit down and shut up!
https://sitdownshutup.wordpress.com/2008/05/20/simple-is-hard
Sit down and shut up! Sit down and shut up? I recently got my first bicycle in many years. I started out looking for a road bike, but discovered single speed and fell in lust, then tried fixed gear and fell in love. This isn’t terribly surprising, given my predilections in other areas. Fixed gear has great. Last night, I told one of my bandmates about my new bike, and the joys of fixed gear riding. I said “Isn’t it just the kind of bike I’d get? 8221; And she said, “Yes – as hard as possible! Build a web...

I planned to do the same this year, but was concerned about potentially tightening photography restrictions, or “helpful” volunteers interfering. So I asked if I should get a press pass this year, and sent along a link to the photos. Instead, they asked me to be a floating staff photographer this year! To try to be perfect. Photography, at least performa...

Sometimes it’s general mojo that works for everyone; sometimes it’s mojo with just one individual. And I suppose that’s important to them, too. But once again, it gets back to fear… fear of being ruled by the irrational. Responses to “mojo”. Feed for this Entry. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Follow &l...

recordings, and Flatland | Sit down and shut up!
https://sitdownshutup.wordpress.com/2007/12/31/recordings-and-flatland
Sit down and shut up! Sit down and shut up? Recordings, and Flatland. Put two different microphones in front of a guitar, get two different sounds… and neither sounds the same as listening to the guitar in the room. Likewise, what the guitarist hears is different than what a listener hears! In photography, the distortions and misrepresentation are more obvious, so I think they’re a little more tolerated. But audio recording? Why does anyone think this sounds “real”? Feed for this Entry. Beth Kinderman an...

Sounds of future past | Sit down and shut up!
https://sitdownshutup.wordpress.com/2009/01/26/sounds-of-future-past
Sit down and shut up! Sit down and shut up? Sounds of future past. As an electric guitarist, I’m going for what I think of as a “futuristic” sound. But by “futuristic”, I mean reminiscent of the Golden Age of the Future, rather than the. Responses to “Sounds of future past”. Feed for this Entry. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.
