I haven't listened to any of the submissions yet for February because I don't want to be influenced.

Did some recording tonight and somehow clipped the whole thing. Sucks because it was a good performance with a narrative. Will try again tomorrow.

I'm still going to make a submission for Feb, even if it's March!

Me too but not for lack of trying. Didn't like my 2nd and 3rd attempts.

How the overlapping rhythms build up and fight until they crescendo into something together. Or the transitions from stormy waters to tranquil seas. Had a hard time boiling that down into one thought.

February challenge: create fighting waves
This is a good one! Could even be combined with the December 2-elements challenge, since
the alternation of two notes/chords can set up a tidal pull. Like breathing.

As place marker while I think about that, I'll cheat and post something wave related that I
completed 3 years ago. But it does contain both December and February waves (also some
June/July/Septemper/October waves).

I'm still handing my homework in late for February. Still discovering my recording process and workflow a bit with this gear. Found myself just leaving the recorder running, hoping to catch magic, but the consequence is that I have a lot of debris to sort through to find the good moments. I don't want the clutter of an unorganized archive so I have been slowly processing the files before moving on.

No March challenge?

Where I live March is always a challenge. Just when you think spring is approaching winter delivers a devastating bitch-slap.

I'm moving in 3 weeks.

Once I get setup, I'm going to start from the beginning and catch up by MAY!
