Stopped at the video store recently. Some great, rare cult flicks visible in that shot, but what did I end up settling on? Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.
I couldn’t be happier. Decent sequel, but the high point probably came from Arnold Schwarzenegger’s commentary. Below is just a short excerpt, it’s…amazing.

I previously performed at DreamBait in June of last year for the release of Shadow Relics and am looking forward to returning. These days my music is becoming increasingly pop-oriented, so (for the time being) this will be a rare chance to see me perform some unreleased and improvised ambient pieces live.
Producing on the road. Forthcoming track: “Zero Kelvin.”
I sing on this one.
p.s. Newspaper headline reads “Rapper Conquered Music World in ’80s With Beastie Boys”

I just finished moving my site to WordPress. I’ll still be ironing out the features and design, but hopefully this site will make posting news about my projects both easier & more visible.
My track “Ultraviolet“ is featured in the short film Atlantis, written and directed by Matthew Ornstein. The film “dramatizes the final space shuttle launch and its significance in the history of space exploration for all mankind.”
Atlantis will be screening at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival today, January 30th, and this Friday, February 3rd. Screening details are available here.
Chicago, lakeside.
You know you’re an electronic musician when you have dreams about MIDI resolution. I urged the importance of having hardware with 480 PPQN and a control range of 16,384.
At last! The Criterion Collection will be releasing a collection of classic films by Hollis Frampton on Blu-ray this spring. A Hollis Frampton Odyssey arrives April 9th, 2012.
