Pattern Sketch

Here's some more new music. I just made this recording, and I'm not exactly sure where this material might be headed. I am playing around with minimalist sorts of interlocking patterns, but trying to find ways to make the texture breathe, and have a more human feel. Often this sort of thing gets to be too mechanical, I think.

Triple Helix

This is a guitar piece I recorded yesterday. It's loud and feisty.

Our new arrival


Rusty

Meet Rusty. We're now a foster home for Aussie Rescue, and Rusty here is our first guest. Cameron picked him up last night at the vet. He's had a rough patch... in addition to just getting fixed, he's been at the local shelter for a while. Long enough that he was going to be put down, so the Aussie Rescue folks sprang into action and now he's living with us. He's bigger than Wickett, but only weighs 33 pounds. And he needs a bath. So far, he's getting along well with Wickett and he's proving to be a real sweetheart. If you'd like to adopt Rusty, let me know!

The weather yesterday was perfect. Perfect for a picnic and a free outdoor concert. So that's what we did. A good time was had by all (especially Wickett who played fetch for hours and befriended many children). Some rocking occurred. We made delicious peanut noodles and they couldn't have been better.
