Yeah, I know... He's gotten such a big head since we were added to metal-archives.com, we've been on a couple comps and splits and the fact that he's always bringing "big" sceney boppin' shit-core emo metal bands to this town. Meh...

Maybe I should look for my Dr. Rhythm and just go it as a one-man thing for a while?

Finish my Hobo Oil Drum Ritual project for media arts and practice class in a way that doesn't make it too kitsch or make it kitsch in a cool way.
Finish my untitled conversation project with a painter for fine art class and make the video presentation.
Compose a Live Electronics piece for electroacoustics class. And finish the essay about my practice for this friday :facepalm:
Maybe see if I can play some places with some friends or by myself if I get an agreeable live setup.
Make better sound sketches for my blahg.
Get more interesting field recordings, drunken conversations gets old after a while.

Aw, half of those are things I have to do!

+1 on the dr. rhythm :thumb:

I am going to learn the clarinet. The Alto Saxophone.
Finish learning straight forward guitar. Make a whole lot more noise. Aen You will succeed! (That Video with your kids and the ciggy amp CLASSIC. :rock: Where can I get that book that got you into building?)
Build my ingenious pedal Ideas. I have no idea how to solder or read schematics. :facepalm:
Listen to less john zorn, he drains me wallet. Round out my Eric Dolphy collection.
Basti Moon we'd discussed maybe a little internet trading for soundscapeing. It was mentioned just in passing but we should do it. Your classes sound friggin wonderful.
save enough for more devi pedals and a good amp head.

Build pedals has been on my list for too long! I figured something like these, just to start with something different: Paper circuits

If you PM me your email, or add me to msn/send email (sebastianaker at gmail dot com), I can give you an invite to dropbox. Then we can make a shared folder and upload/download off eachother. That's how I make most of my collabs these days. Looking forward to it :thumb:
It's amazing how simplifying the up and download practice increases productivity; dropbox is basically a folder you have on your 'puter that automatically ups and downs to a server. I mean, even having a simplified blog increased my productivity at least a trillion percent. High five for being too lazy/too hyperactive to bother going through one extra step to get something done.
