welcome back

admin — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 10:04:45 +0000

it’s been a while and things got complicated. i put the PBE on hiatus and focused on other things for a while. in the meantime this budget crisis is making hard to make a steady living. along the way there have been a few spurts and false starts trying to get back to making music again but I’m glad to report that I’m stating a new chapter in my life.

classes start Monday and if all goes well i should have a pretty good schedule for making music on a consistent basis. last semester i had a 5am call time every day with quite a bit more grading than usual that slowed my progress and was very frustrating.

the main news (at least for some of you who i haven’t seen in a while) is a that i’m going to be performing solo or very small group for the time being. the last few years i have spent quite a lot of time making music with a wide variety of controllers. these days my weapon of choice is the Maschine a 16 pad box that is mainly used as a drum or sample looper but i am mainly using it as a 2.1 octave melodic instrument.

this should give you a better idea of what i am doing and I’m going to be posting more of these on a regular basis and get back to putting on shows pretty sooon

Vinnie Rattolle's: The Illustrated Art of Lock-Picking [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 17:26:47 PDT

"The Illustrated Art of Lock Picking: An Educational Trade Manual" tells you everything you need to know about picking locks that were designed prior to 1976 (not much has changed). Well, maybe not everything (simple to pick locks that utilized skeleton keys aren't covered!), but an awful lot."

Morton Feldman, Speaking of Music at the Exploratorium in 1986 : Morton Feldman : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 17:23:47 PDT

"Morton Feldman interviewed by Charles Amirkhanian at the Exploratorium's Speaking of Music Series in San Francisco, January 30, 1986. Charles Amirkhanian interviews Morton Feldman and asks right at the top: Is your music Hermetic? The answers take us on a whirlwind tour of this composers opinions, philosophy, criticisms, recollections and observations. There are excerpts from his Piano and String Quartet as well as his Violin Concerto. Feldman indicates that his compositions, which are usually lengthy, can be compared to the novels of Proust or drinking a fine wine: one to be sipped rather than gulped. Dont give up listening until you find out why Fred Astaire danced so well, or why Beethoven wrote his C-sharp minor String Quartet; Feldman provides the answers! Thanks to the Estate of Morton Feldman for permission to share this historic interview. All Rights Reserved."

Grant Hill Writes Op-Ed in Response to Jalen Rose - BV on Sports [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 17:19:38 PDT

"Besides Hill not really acknowledging that these were feelings these players had for him and Duke more than 20 years ago, he really ignores one of the biggest accusations Jalen Rose made in the film -– that Duke University refuses to go to the hood to recruit players. The ideas that Duke only recruits players from two-parent homes who grew up in the suburbs are what fueled contempt among black players in the NCAA, and largely among black NCAA fans. This is an image that has been with Duke for years. It's an image that says, if you don't come from a two-parent home in the suburbs, you aren't good enough. You are less-than. You are ghetto. You can't represent Duke."

RIP Digg. [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 17:18:50 PDT

"And Digg was one of the first to prove you could take advantage of a decade of open source development to start a company for dirt cheap, one of the first to prove you didn’t have to be a technical genius to build a great product, and one of the first to prove a rabid community could make a site explode very, very quickly. Digg was never the biggest company of the movement, but it was bigger than many, and it stood for something. It was the everyman. This is why I put Kevin Rose on the cover of BusinessWeek in 2006. It was his first cover, my first cover, and one of the first national magazine covers about the Web 2.0 movement, period."

The Spudnuts Saga: A Bite of Donut History - Los Angeles Restaurants and Dining - Squid Ink [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 17:18:01 PDT

"What was the first nationwide donut chain to reach Los Angeles? Krispy Kreme? You're not even trying. Dunkin' Donuts? Not from around here, are you? Winchell's?, Yum Yum? Getting closer, but no. The answer: Spudnuts. Brothers Al and Bob Pelton were working as an appliance salesman and drug store clerk, respectively, when they were inspired to create a new kind of donut. They first tried a mix that used potato water, but it didn't achieve the hoped for results. A mashed potato mix tested better and the spudnut was born in 1940."

pbailey68 — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 17:07:42 PDT

"If the classical music world's response to the twentieth century was to oppose all challenges—scorning popular music, and paying only an insincere, token respect to contemporary high-art composers—how did the visual art world respond to similar challenges? To be sure, the art world in the twentieth century was hardly peaceful: throughout the century, pitched battles were waged over issues of aesthetics, value and legitimacy. A review in The New York Times of the famous Armory Show of 1913 made it clear that, in some circles, modernism was in for a fight. "These French painters are making insanity pay," the artist-critic Kenyon Cox wrote. "Such art should be swept into the rubbish heap, since these men have no claims whatsoever to creating works of art."

State Of The Torta 4 | LA EASTSIDE [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 17:06:30 PDT

"I’ve been spending more time in Downtown lately where there are many eating options though the bulk seem to be of the new fancier variety, with lunch averaging around $12 for some precious fare presented nicely on a plate. Sure, its often good but sometimes you just want a quick bite to kill the hunger not a list of pricey items in season and all that waiter nonsense. So I’ve been walking around trying to find the spots where the laborers get their grub. How come the local papers and blogs tell me nothing about what I want to know? It’s all fancy restaurants and real estate development. Pass!"

Old Spice Man Marketing, Redux: What Went Right--and What Did Not | Fast Company [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 16:58:58 PDT

"Old Spice thought when the campaign was done that they were done. Huge mistake. A social media campaign in the Thank You Economy is never done! The Thank You Economy rewards marathon runners, not sprinters. All P&G needed to do was sprinkle a little bit more pixie dust by humanizing their business and ensuring long-term relationships with their customers, but they gave up. In doing so, they turned what had all the markings superb social media campaign into a one-shot tactic."

An Introduction to Historical Tunings [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 16:57:36 PDT

"Those who attack equal temperament, the tuning of our modern pianos - as I do on my Just Intonation Explained page - seem to be attacking the great European musical tradition itself. [snip] Dead wrong. Equal temperament - the bland, equal spacing of the 12 pitches of the octave - is pretty much a 20th-century phenomenon. It was known about in Europe as early as the early 17th century, and in China much earlier. But it wasn't used, because the consensus was that it sounded awful: out of tune and characterless. During the 19th century (for reasons we'll discuss later), keyboard tuning drifted closer and closer to equal temperament over the protest of many of the more sensitive musicians. Not until 1917 was a method devised for tuning exact equal temperament. So how was earlier European music tuned? What are we missing when we hear older music played in 20th-century equal temperament?"

Scott Barry Kaufman, Ph.D.: After the Show: The Many Faces of the Performer [del.icio.us]

pbailey68 — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 16:55:21 PDT

"Creative people have a great deal of physical energy, but they're also often quiet and at rest. They work long hours, with great concentration, while projecting an aura of freshness and enthusiasm...This does not mean that creative people are hyperactive, always "on." In fact, they rest often and sleep a lot. The important thing is that they control their energy; it's not ruled by the calendar, the dock, an external schedule. When necessary, they can focus it like a laser beam; when not, creative types immediately recharge their batteries. They consider the rhythm of activity followed by idleness or reflection very important for the success of their work." makes me feel better about my process. describes what i do pretty well
