Live Rig

2012-01-05T12:02:00.001-08:00

I will be using this gear configuration for a show coming up. Tape loops, delays, samplers, electronic drums, and lots of wires and analog synths. Wish I could figure out how to fly with all this...

Playing at Super Deluxe in Tokyo we were lucky enough to be joined by Nels Cline on guitar scrape and Tatsuhisa Yamamoto on drum tumble.

My friend Nels Cline asked me to do a comic book style drawing for his new project with Yuka Honda, Mike Watt, and Dougie Bowne.

I tried.

The record is out on Sean Lennon's label, Chimera Music. Here is the only known photo of Sean and I.

Buy it here.

Home Built Synth Modules

2010-11-12T17:10:00.001-08:00

Been hard at work learning electronics and building my modular.

Besides reading this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Art_of_Electronics

I've also been haunting:

and especially:

http://electro-music.com/

where I first learned of Scott Stites Klee Sequencer, which I built (and fed into a video oscilloscope made by critter and guitari) :

My buddies Scott and Travis Thatcher really got me started soldering:

Also built my friend Todd's sampler:

as well as three VCO's and a low-pass filter from:

Thomas White made available some PCB's for his version of the Buchla LPG:

and of course, the wonderful Scott Deyo has provided endless front panel beauty:

Many more modules and modifications to come.

Much like a doodle on a school folder, this flyer contained an unfortunate spelling error(X instead of ks for aleks and the drummer).
