In her posthumous Netflix episode Famous Last Words, Jane Goodall reflects on life, hope, and humanity’s duty to heal the planet. With wit & sorrow, she imagines sending Trump, Putin, Xi, and Netanyahu “off on Musk’s spaceship.” It’s a final, profound rebuke of ego & evil, over empathy & kindness 🤍🕊️

I'm looking for a recommendation of someone with a stellar ear who could help me (for a fee) with a difficult transcription?

People sometimes claim that experimental music is hard to relate to, but that's bullshit. Who hasn't sat in a room? You never thought it was gonna rain?

New Focus has released my album of Pier Francesco Valentini's "Canone nel Nodo de Salamone" from 1631. It's a canon for potentially infinite voices. This album is a version for 1024, recorded by myself and some of my most treasured collaborators.

As part of my series of hour-long performances that consist of a single tone, I set up a service where if you call (858) 346-5851, you can hear an hour-long audio file that contains a tone only during the last second, after which it will hang up.

Here is a link to send a letter to UC Regents, Governor Newsom, and to UC President Milliken, urging them to resist the extortion of the federal government... to seek legal recourse, provide interim research funding sources, and refuse any settlement.

All these tracks are free, but I have a donation button on the website. If like 100000 of you would each donate $10 it would be awesome

My 55th Milton Babbitt recording is now up: Mehr "Du".
The incredible Elisa Sutherland sings this collection of 4 short songs (played attacca), along with Aleck Karis on the piano and myself playing viola.

Kicking them off with a set of six, and planning to keep adding to them at a rate of about two per week.

Almost a year of music! 2/2
