97 minutes of music done and it's a wrap. After many months of hard work, my score for the #indiefilm feature, Kate Hugo, is complete www.katehugo.com
I was treated to a breakfast snack from daughter, and a special bottle of somethin' from wifey. It's all so satisfying. Hello weekend.

The November 1998 Bon Appétit magazine was one of their greatest. A 240+ page masterpiece. We’ve been plucking our Thanksgiving dishes out of there for almost 2 decades. The cornucopia hasn’t run dry.

Incredible formative seed. A butterfly effect of sorts.
When I was 11, I went to a ski camp, got flu, and spent the week in isolation.
A lovely nurse took care for me, and I got equipped with my new friend’s Walkman with a single cassette I’d play on loop:
A: Jarre’s Zoolook
B: Tangerine Dreams’ Logos
Still my fav albums by both artists decades later.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

I don’t like to ask but - how DO you get followers in this place? If it helps, here’s a pic I took of Mercury crossing the Sun!

An apt and prescient analogy
I feel like how we feel about smoking on airplanes is how the next generation will feel about us just mainlining social media.

This is real and true.
so much of being an audio person is googling images of your gear so you don't have to move anything to see the connections at the back

The worst fires in history continue to ravage L.A. This thirty year old woman has been through so much hardship this year, first as a victim of domestic violence and now as a victim of the Eaton Fire. Please chip in $10, $25, $50, $100 or more to help her rebuild her life again.

A landlord turned off Tenant Client's family's heat upon learning Client was an immigrant.
Landlord hired three different law firms to argue this was legal, then fired each one after they couldn't get our case dismissed.
This week, landlord settled for enough that Client will buy a house.

Tell me something that brought you joy this week.
Any old thing will do. Small joys are as good as big ones—sometimes even better.
