There is still something soothing to me about this game. It like a zen comfort food.
2020 Project 3
This is a little clubbish/house-y beat that came from some Masterclass exercise failure mixed with some sampling practice. It’s fine.
and a new single from Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever !?!
It’s a damn good week for new music!
Last night’s moon. This afternoon’s lunch.
Bright moon with some great clouds.
Cold pitcher of PBR and frosty glasses at Chiocca’s.
David Letterman on Desus and Mero
It gets a little rambly sometimes, just like any conversation with an old guy does, but Dave is obvs. having fun and Desus and Mero clearly think Dave’s Great. It’s a good interview.

Adventures in Clay – 2
Due to some vagaries in the studio’s kiln firing schedule, these are the only glazed and fired pieces I’ve got from the last class cycle. These are glaze tests on 266 Standard Brown Clay, which I bought in a state of excitement from Clayworks, out local clay shop.
It’s super messy to work with. It’s really, really soft compared to what I had been using, so it was a lot less tolerant to my beginner’s hands. It does fire to a really cool dark-dark brown, which I like.
The yellow glaze looks super-gross on it. The white glaze is better. I’m hoping to try some lighter blue on the successful pieces I’ve thrown.
I should have almost everything from this class back to me by the end of the week. I’m excited to see what survives the firing.
