5/31

did a lot of listening to the PMA this week — music in my head — listen to Folie Cultur — is that appropriate — the birds in the background

thinking of Saranac and all the things to be done and what will be my art/work
madness
cultured land — landed culture
a negative life APL ANL
‘retention’
in DEF

sporadic sounds
graphs etc — rhythms made from a steady pulse using graphs to determine start/end points or a sample or length of sample etc — with or without loops etc

listen to ambient sounds when I should be doing something physical
maybe fix the lawn chair today

bottom line — repairs

watch virtual reality — ambient music — what is this — these sounds — why these sounds — just flip through sounds — a lot of tapes or some machine that allows one to play with samples
need to get my video tapes into audio recording

turn the video recorder on and record things — I should have done more in NYC — sit around one of the buildings and record people and sounds
take some TV stuff and mix it with ambient stuff — overlay tapes etc

cut up methods haven’t been explored enough

flip through TV channels

is there any need for art — intersection
this music — great for TV
TV sounds could be mixed in
so much ugliness on TV edit
cut
parts
parts and supplies — over
sounds — just take the things and play with them
elimination of art
retention
ANAL
