that's it, just the introduction folks.
also, the last entry in this volume of my listening journal
onward!
Whiskey in the Jar (Karen's Vocal) - Train Case [July 2011]
the verse climbs to hang high
chorus climbs to descend again into the jar
Ghost Town - Three Fingers [from Three Songs]
drive the beat for full accusatory impact
Sonata in F Major K. 17 - Domenico Scarlatti - Pieter-Jan Belder
material is introduced shortly before its attributes begin to converse
possible directions are hinted at
remaining as potentials even after box is all tied up
I Need You - The Who [from A Quick One]
somebody felt a need to boost Moon's bit
tag end harpsichord
White Knuckles - Elvis Costello [from Trust]
many words are spoken
scenes from in their heads
didj and bells
The earbrain distinguishes objects from within the raw signal.
It objectivizes or organizes the signal :- that sound -: :- that other sound -:
that note, that other note
that process (that other process)
that wood drum with those sticks that reverb
Extremely fine distinguishing power, but it can be fooled compositionally by designing higher level patterns in form and figuration that bend our hearing toward their own objects.
Thus melody is a kind of aural illusion, a trick upon the mind, sleight of hand.
Keep your ear on the signal folks.
discussion of phone numbers
guitar strumburrs
Perception is a useful abstraction of the universe outside of perception, by which we make that universe conscious, by becoming conscious, aware of being conscious. Our bodies are organs of our own abstraction.
Well *how are* you? Is your mother home?
Bickleton Burger with extreme stereo separation (Seattle to San Diego)

Postlude - Bob Priest - Marzena Music Ensemble [from Hendrix Uncovered]

a very subtle form of art
Banned Rehearsal 915 - Jenny Chung, Karen Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Steve Kennedy, Aaron Keyt, Neal Kosály-Meyer [August 2016]
bunch of folks chatting on the porch ease slowly into the going of it
stepping into the literal intrusion of sound of the outside armed with just a few makers of noise
and our wits
a passable fade pulled off gratis
3rd start's a charm vroom vroom rev it up
we converse with the revver
there goes another
diesler dieseler
that time smear effect of the mixers or seminars with just a few noisemakers and the general monotonous soughing din of civilization
rev it up
again
trouble with that engine
(duet for treble trombone and revving engine)
Sturm und Drang in the hot seething oils of a sardine tin
you must pay the rent I can not pay the rent

with violins
the build to ecstaticity
Frau Blücher?
then the pious moral of the story fit for youths and maidens
Back 2 The Base - X [from Wild Gift]
rhythm of speaking
words only matter in so far as they are required to articulate the accentuation of syllables
June 12, 2019
Banned Rehearsal 101 - Karen (Meyer) Eisenbrey, Keith Eisenbrey, Anna K, Aaron Keyt, Neal Kosály-Meyer [collected from Telepaths 6, June 1986]
we talk to Aaron before he calls us
a muddled din
the Seattle contingent must have started the tape last, in each case
Q: what is the more noisy meal?
A: dinner.
what counts for suspense:
how we line up
it was Anna & Neal's tape that started first
productivity of the 2nd year is up

spelling of hip hop names
Websterish simplification, american as it gets
whistling in the dark

Wicked World - Neal Kosály-Meyer [August 2006]

at once
Blood and Fire, Hallelujah (with Second Thoughts Omnibus) - Keith Eisenbrey [August 2016]
one of my more perversely wonderful mashups
spine straight and unblinking
It's just the way it worked out, but it sounds like gunfire at the end of things
or syllabic talking rhythm
BaF,H (2010) as it was finally conceived is a concerto for piano and canned sound
STO is the 9th of my Études d'exécution imminent of 2016, in this midi version each bit is played as a canon and all the bits are interlocked end to end

Ginkgo in Turquoise Ink 190610 - Anne Gorrick - Keith Eisenbrey
I became acquainted with Anne through an Open Space connection. My first thought on seeing this
 |
| Anne Gorrick, encaustic monotype 2019 |
So I played it as such, the image displayed on a device propped on the left end, the clavichord played with fingers on the keys or strumming the wires, or brushing and whumping the harp of it with an old felt cat toy. I'll probably do a few more sessions, or rework this somehow, or both. Not sure yet because I haven't done it. It is a lovely score, thank you Anne!

devotion delight prayer in all as they
looking books and one minute and the next
by the motions of the whole distance between
the oak leaf jumps from road to puddle
the stone track sits on a wool blanket
