HYDROPHOBE
HYDROPHOBE by mainsequence
I finished my submission for the 2009 RPM Challenge last night. Clocking in at 37:27–one track, ten sections–this is my first experiment with purely ambient “music”. Each section starts with a raw recorded sound that then gets manipulated beyond recognition, hopefully in a mostly pleasant way. […]

BUILD DAY
It’s a gray Saturday morning and the MIT campus is dead. Empty courtyards testify that most students are either sleeping off last night’s fun, or still attached to a screen after an all-night computer programming session. Some are up, however, and I’m headed to meet them at Build […] -

KAISER PERMANENTE
On Friday, at 4:59 PM (West Coast Time) Earth’s North Pole will be tilted as far toward the sun as it will be all year…so the days will only be getting shorter for the next six months.
The poppies and foxgloves are blooming however, and the Oregon Brewer’s Festival is just about a month away. With […] -

Brain Machine Interface
I made this song for my Dad. It has some excerpts from an amazing talk from the TED conference by a neuro-scientist named Jill Bolte Taylor. All the other sounds are from 16 Sounds v1 and a drumline that I recorded with my cell-phone at the Cirque du Cycling.
