9/13

still reading roubaud — everything else aside for now
french — none done recently


backwards forward idea some turning point at which i start working backwards through the notes


different periods of time — different phases of my life — different degrees of knowledge about music


web
try to picture the site
a start page with image background
art pages
a blog section — write about what i’m doing and writing about
writings section — notes on the various writings
actual notes from the notebooks
overall — scans of notes and drawings — remod drawings etc


glancing at john cage on amazon
a lot of sets and things — how much of the stuff would i want — i need to note some of the things i liked from last weeks performance but it’s hard to know what another version would sound like — i liked the number piece a lot but it was done with a lot of electronics —
music that can be performed hundreds of times and is always different
is that good or bad
synth pieces that can be ‘played’ with different programs — different sounds with the same midi data


projects that i’ll never carry out
take the art books that i don’t want and cut out pictures — put them in the photo pages i’ve collected in chronological order — it would be interesting to see how often some art is illustrated and compare different color reproduction - sizes - paper etc

(i automatically put commas in that line — they look awful)


i haven’t done an art opening in a long time - only 1 or 2 since we’ve been in texas
the studio tour will be coming up soon

sept 2012
9/12-7
3/24/19 try to get some of the ideas on arranging the notes into one place
7/5/22 take the things in the center and think about ‘commentary’ in the right column

the following were in the center column of the indesign file

i’m still having this problem — have been thinking about it— how far back should i go — or should i start a forward movement at my birthday and fit the 2017 & start of 2018 notes into the random sequence that seems appropriate because i started on my birthday

<this references the book section beginning with 'web'>
this is still the best approach but i can’t seem be consistent

deleted on art openings — not going — not wanting to go but wanting some interaction with artists it’s too late for that also
