Comment:
And so it was passed from one (g. a. b. l@bs) to the next (Valis), the challenge to make a mix with Eno's "The Big Here and Long Now" essay as a template or somethin'. Never one to shy away from tripping over my own feet, I offer this mix. Stumbling in it's own way, hither and thither, in the long(ish) now.Artwork graciously provided by g. a. b. l@bs.
Feedback:
Nobody told ME about it. ;) Looks like a fine one, though. And "Big Electric Cat" is one of my all-time faves.
This looks very interesting and of course I had to look up the Eno essay. I found it at

Great Curtis. It was a mix whose time had come. Your proximity to the land of "random danger" lead you on a distinctly Burns-ian path...., Zeno would approve.
Nice! Thanks for stepping up to the plate; someone had to make this mix (OR this theme had to choose someone to mix it...perhaps others will follow).
This really speaks to the truth that "...what is possible in art [and mixing]
becomes thinkable in life. We become our new selves first in simulacrum, through style and
fashion, art , [mixing] & our deliberate immersions in virtual worlds. Through them we
sense what it would be like to be another kind of [mixer] with other kinds of
[genres]. We rehearse new feelings, [modes of compression], and sensitivities.
We imagine other ways of thinking about our world, [our hard drives and the arrangement
of their .mp3/.wav playable contents], and its future. "

I contemplate the immersion.., a rearranging of the cross-fired wiring templates....left-to-right vs. "the other way 'round."
had a chance to fully enjoy this one today (after several previous, cursory listens),
during my Sunday afternoon workout...very cool on several levels:
-1st for sheer musical flow; it's flawless
-2nd, for adherence to its theme &
-3rd, for its aural representation of the essay "what" inspired it in the 1st place.
A+

I missed this, apparently. Looks great.
sorry for missed this, looks really smashing
