In 1983 German photographer Jaochim Brohm, on a Fulbright at OSU, did a photo series of Columbus, Ohio and environs. He nailed the assignment.

While listening Jean-Claude Eloy his music I just read he passed away this Wednesday.
Only discovered his music this year, and jumped straight on with three CD boxes.
Amazing work, some of my favourite I heard this year.
RIP

Was chatting about this Bernhard Günter album yesterday and I was surprised to learn how many folks had heard of his music, but not really heard it. He seems to have gone under the radar a bit which is unfortunate.
Remains classic and impeccable in its simplicity, concept, and execution.

Really loving @dan-bean.bsky.social's new record. Compositions for bass guitar and 303 that subvert any and all expectations of that instrumentation. Great stuff!
