The Cat Who Walks Through Walls

Working on this bugger. Classic science fiction from Robert A. Heinlein.

The Holy Barbarians

Here is a look at the book I just finished, all dog eared and all. Another author trying to score a hit off the beat scene, along with his views on the world. give it a shot if you've read all the other books on the topic of the beat generation. Author (Lawrence Lipton) past away in 1975 This book is kind of hard to find, I found my copy in a pile of books that were on sale at a thrift store on the coast.

gone into wherever



Well it happened again, just spent a good couple of hours, working on remixing a song, and blamo the ever so famous "were sorry but this program must close" Lost it all except for the raw file, I guess I'll start it over some other day. Using a program I never used before, its not great but kinda cute in a free kinda way. Its called Audacity, got it for free off the net. works pretty good for light editing but for larger projects I'd hit the big boy software, I might suggest if your going to get into it pretty deep save your files along the way, as it doesn't seem to save files worth beans when it has to shut down unexpectantly .I must laugh aloud as I complain about this and then tell my fellow bloggers where to get it. For free it has just about all you need for simple recordings. I use this on my laptop where I plug in a little cheap mic, to record ideas, when I get really rolling I rerecord it on my studio computer. but as a begining tool it works. If you were to take the time to load extra plug ins I bet you could get a little more out of it, as the effects that it comes with are a little weak. Its also good for converting audio files into different formats and converting sampling rates( this is why I originally down loaded the stuff as I needed a different sampling rate for a flash player). I was able to free up some disc space becuase this does so much where in the past I had to use several programs to get the job done. This is far from Pro tools, and it doesn't have much for the guitarist, when it comes to effects so you would have to get your signal processed from somewhere else. I was surprised at how easy this was to use , I give it a thumbs up for entry level recording software, and its Free.

Lennon

Taking a little time off, This week I went through this very real flashback on the topic of John Lennon. Started to think about what kind of music he would have gone on to create, if he were still alive and kicking. I also went through a reflection on my own younger self, when I felt a little lost, and how the life of Lennon helped me along my adolescent path.

Television


It seems to me that I must continually challenge the things that I witness in this life, a demand of this very dream. A lot of the days pass with me still believing in the things I never see, never a part of. Cast into another sitcom, soap opera, or documentary of characters that should be turned off.
Maybe its better not to see your self on television, I'm searching in between channels of thought, I
know there is something better,something that is you.
