Battle Up: Redrawing the Future of Democratic Power While Republicans move to steal the map, we’re rewriting the entire playbook — building local power now to win the next decade.

Tired of corporate Democrats wasting space? It’s time to @runforsomething.net!

NYers: Both NY Senators needs to go, Schumer in 28 and Gillibrand in 30. Start now. There is no better time to take on the NY Dems, who prefer nepo babies and bankers to AOC and Mamdani. 🗽

Sad, but that’s the reality in the U.S.

On Generating Music: No, I don’t mean by using AI. That’s lazy at best; slop, theft, and just plain unethical at worst.

I recently cobbled together an intriguing frame of mind centered on goal-setting, which I attempt to explain in writing.

In the end, the music is a calm flow into a great abyss. Yet, at the same time, it cradles softly - as if protecting from, as if warning of, as if soothing for whatever lies ahead.

Axis will be available 7/18 for streaming on YouTube and for digital purchase through Bandcamp and my website.

Creating Axis felt like an archaeological dig. Each step of the creative process and each iteration revealed newness: new ideas, new skills, new sounds, new insights. Every discovery pushed me to continue exploring the unknown, the lost, the yet-unearthed.

The music I created for Axis exists as a ghost of itself. Each track floats. Lingers. And what is a ghost but a memory of a time? Or a place? Or a person? Each track is a memory of itself: longing for what was, respecting what is - and perhaps even yearning for what could be.

My upcoming album, Axis, is a chilled bath of water. Allow the sound to wash over you. Allow yourself to acclimate to its temperature. Allow your mind to wander.

Imagine sitting in a chilled bath of water. Your muscles tense up at first but, as you sit in the water, your body slowly acclimates. Eventually you don’t notice the chill. The water feels normal, and you begin to think about other thoughts.

Axis will be released on 7/18, available for streaming on YouTube and for digital purchase on Bandcamp and my website.

Rather, I composed and curated sets of notes and then, in a custom program script that I wrote, those note sets were used to produce generated music, which was again curated for clarity and personal taste.

My upcoming album, Axis, is the result of several months experimenting with generative methods of creating music. Neither AI nor machine learning were used.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Upcoming new music!

Axis will be released on 7/18, available for streaming on YouTube and for digital purchase on Bandcamp and my website.

our country rn

I’m sure part of it is the naivety of youth, but the 4th of July used to be the best summer holiday. Now it’s tacky and embarrassing (and that’s before fireworks send my dogs into a quivering meltdown.)

To everyone else: We The People have work to do and we're way behind schedule. It's up to us to be the change we want to see. If They can make changes, then We The People will make them too.

Happy Performative Patriotism Day to those who celebrate! I hope you'll be able to enjoy an FDA-approved hotdog or a burger while wearing your favorite imported Stars and Stripes apparel!

Imagine this is you.

You’re locked in a cell thousands of miles from home. No one knows where you are. No charges. No trial. No end in sight.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

JUST HAPPENED: West: “You can’t violate another country’s sovereignty.”

Jennings: “Why? We do it all the time. Who’s going to stop us?”

He admitted America breaks the law constantly—and then dared the world to do something about it. That’s not journalism. That’s fascism on live TV.

The US establishment is going to learn how out of touch they are with the majority of Americans across the political aisles when it comes to supporting war with Iran.

We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time." Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed. That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.
