Scixual's music/noise page at Bandcamp →
I found a site that’ll let me set up my compositions for streaming or download. It’s set to “Choose how much you pay” for downloads. It will accept zero as an option.
You are cordially invited to listen and download as much as you like.

Incidentally...
Unless otherwise mentioned, the photos and paintings are my doing, as are the noise compositions. I can only upload one sound file per day, so it’ll be another month before I am done.
If anyone wants to download, let me know. I am not aware of a good site to make them available without generating costs, but there may be one.
Paintings are for sale, too, BTW.

Monster Island (free online serial zombie tale) →
I have been reading this serial online. It started as something to do while waiting to fall asleep, but some (lost, broken) days, this story has been the best part. I am almost 2/3 of the way through. You’d think zombie stories would have no surprises. But this guy spends a lot of time thinking out the extent of “what if?” Each chapter takes me further along.

GQ Interview with Bill Fuckin' Murray →
He is one of the greatest comic actors alive. A man who’s navigated his career with a peerless instinct for quality and self-respect. The man behind movies—from Caddyshack to Stripes, from Rushmore to Lost in Translation—that seem to have defined a dozen different moments in our cultural life. But he is also a man beholden to no one, not the studios, not the audience, not even an...

"Hey Bulldog" →
Dangerous Minds’ Richard Metzger waxes rhapsodic about his favorite obscure Beatles song: “Hey Bulldog”.
Hey Bulldog is, in my never so humble opinion, one of the very best Beatles songs of all, but as it lived on the soundtrack for Yellow Submarine—only half a Beatles album technically speaking, although the George Martin symphonic music that comprises side two is, to my ...

Capricorn poster in public libraries decried as... →
Ursula’s poster, the image for which I posted yesterday, is part of a summer reading program throughout the US.
So today she discovered this comment (and resulting agreement-rich thread) at The Watchman’s Cry (an End-Times forum (JWs?)):
So my twins went to public school school last year (never again!), and a couple of days before the last day of school, they brought home a flyer...

My First Day in Riverton
The pain was sudden and bright, and I was frozen, eyes squeezed shut, and it was the sound of a car horn that brought me enough to myself to pull into gear and make it to the side of the road and allow the aging Pinto I called Lucy to sputter to silence and let loose a taco salad and a TaB onto the passenger-side floormat.
Shit.
Next thing I knew the gearshift was grinding my cheek against...
