can you think of something to say ?
i think this is either some sort of interview, or for some sort of bio maybe.. possibly a blurb to accompany my name and a cute little graphic of ohio with my face vignetted in the middle.... whatever it is it seems to be as indecisive as i am.
can you think of something else to say ?
it's a new year, a year for the halicon project to come out of hiding..
what else can you say about that ?
i've been taking everything apart. rearranging things. re-discovering electronic music all over again.. I've had my time much monopolized by the 8-bit revival in the past year or so. A band that i'm really enjoying. I'm slowly learning to budget my time between work (or looking for work) and 8bit and halicon music. I think i might have it figured out finally.
"Sometimes it is as if she had made her poem with a knife." Is that an accurate metaphor for your writing process ?
maybe, but i think a blender or would be more suitible.. or a jig-saw. mostly i stumble upon the basis for my songs by accident a traffic rythm, or falling down the stairs.. every day occurances that inspire a rythm or melody in me. then i just start forcing the wrong blocks into the holes left .. until something that shouldn't work catches my ear.. and expand from there..
what else can you say about that ?
it let's me start with infinite possibilities AND work within certain boundries.. two versions of limits that separatley paralyze me possibilities or frustration.. but together, i finally feel able to finish what i start..

a new motto "dead tired, wired and restless"

my computer starts to glitch out pretty heavily once i reach 147 note polyphony.
what else can you say about that ?
i need a faster computer. a smaller computer. a not blue computer.
Oh, you think so ?
i'm not sure.. maybe. i'd like to at least pretend that was the truth

i've decided that you are totally joking on me.
can you think of something else to say ?
it seems you couldn't.. why should i?
what else can you say about that ?
you should be more prepared... like a boyscout. drink the tiger's blood and graduate with an arrow.
oooh. I don't know. really ?
totally. find as many episodes of macguyver as are available, and watch them as hard as you can.
Are you a musician ?
yes. almost everyday of the week. with multiple ideologies and faces and identities.

you dn't even know who i am. and this is spam and i've probably got a wicked virus now. dammnit.

the jealoucity rate of those people who can afford laptops is super high !
what else can you say about that ?
the speed / rate at which something makes one jealous.
philosophy ?
it's hard to keep creativity afloat in the midwest for electronic music. all my electronic friends have moved away and i think most people (me included ) need that kind of sounding board to feel that they're not wasting their time. I'm kind of isolated here in dayton, and it becomes hard to convince myself that the music i'm working on is credible or has any sort of general, or original merit. A lot of things i'll write and think arn't so great, but other will enjoy and vice versa, it's very useful to have the outside source to help discern the good from the bad. I'm also pretty modest and don't like to be that guy who asks people, 'hey, do you like this?> i wrote it? what do you think?" sometimes i'll just throw it on in the car or at the house with no indication, just to see if anyone expresses interest in the unknown music in the stereo. Thats' really my only source of input.
the page may have changed since that time ?
the page? hmm. oh. yes. mine has. i think. that time? when was that? was i there? i think you are mistaking me for someone you care about.
can you think of something to say ?
watch out, the excitements getting out of hand!
