These books still make me smile. I think I'll write a third volume.

Day 17: To dance to in the rain. To me this sounds like a slow, contemplative, artistic dance; and also like gentle rain falling in a garden.

The jazz and old-school experimental music portion of a massive music haul I've found at thrift stores during the past month.

The classical (in the broad sense) of the massive music haul I've found in the past month. All of these vinyls except one were $1.00 in Goodwill. (The Ransom Wilson was $5.00 in a record store; I found it while waiting for lunch between selling books in the AEN booth at the Ballard SeafoodFest.)

The "pop" (in the broad sense) portion of the massive music haul I've found in the past month. These vinyls were $1.00 at Goodwill. Boston and F. Mac were ubiquitous during my high school days; Warwick was a little earlier; "Blue" J. Tyranny was around the same time but I don't remember hearing it.

Push Thru, by Crystal Beth 8 track album

"Push Through" by Crystal Beth. Unclassifiable "jazztronica" with vocal craziness, clarinet, and hip-hop in the background.

Day 14: With the name of a city in the title.
Let's go full-on symphonic here; also (I believe) the first piece to use a phonograph record (turntable) as a instrument. (It's the bircalls around 16:00 here; now it's digitial.)

"Untitled (Wood Textures no. 1)"
I painted this in #Fukushima #Japan in 1989, but had to leave it there. I don't know what became of it.

William Gibson. It would be fun to live in his classic cyberpunk world if I managed to survive.
