it’s about to be #piano, #livecoding (#renoise, #orcλ, #bitwig) and **mysterious voice** ????

6 April, the day Stravinsky died.

Playing his Serenade in A for piano was pure adrenaline (borderline terrifying), mostly because of the third movement, the Rondoletto, where I very nearly derailed 🥵 Incredible music.

This film would not have happened without the amazing contributions of:

choreographer/performers Nina McNeely and Jasmine Albuquerque who embody universal intelligences of the beyond in their portrayal

vocalists Micaela Tobin and Sharon Chohi Kim who sing the prima materia in otherworldly grandeur

the Strangeloop Studios team Aron Johnson, Nicolas Juister, Alec Maassen for giving shape to the beguiling void

the contrapuntal cinematographic eye of Jake Bloch

Polia & Blastema, an opera I composed for occultist filmmaker legend E. Elias Merhige and in collaboration with my visionary psychonautical twin Strangeloop, is being unveiled today as part of the Brainfeeder Films Collection, the first NFT auction of its kind for cinematic work.

Included in the collection will be an array of films from Eddie Alcazar, Spike Jonze, Flying Lotus, Krotchy + Floontz, David Firth, Robert Morgan, and Jimmy Screamerclauz

there’s a lot going on and I’ve been meaning to share some announcements but my Moderna mRNA-1273 first dose has got me 😴

feeling hype but also ~chill~. chillype (¿)

gun manufacturers/gun lobbies are profiting off of human misery and it is abhorrent

there seems to be an exclusivity and hierarchization attendant to the NFT space that produces fear of missing out, envy, and rewards those with social capital or with skills in 3D software first and foremost.
