🇨🇦 Some guy. Humanist. Lover of traditional algorithms and polyrhythms.

Designer / data organizer / developer / economics nerd who makes things.

By night I dabble in the audio realm.
Introspective thoughts from the 38+ year old professional creative:

Sometimes you're the artist and sometimes the brush. Be aware which you are for every project.

I get upset sometimes.

I think my clients are wrong all the time, and tell them that so we can do better

It's almost time to say goodbye to responsibility for a little bit.

What a pre-weekend banger.

Oh-my-lord... There is a live version of Masaki Ueda's "Osaka Bay Blues" on youtube now.

What a time to be alive.

I need to do a tribute to this song one day, it's just got that something.

"Conservative" has become slang for "Con-artist" up here.

They are not the same as even the Harper generation, they're all power hungry populist cucks who don't give a fuck about anything but themselves....

It is enjoyable to watch them cannibalize each other though.

Canada is building a deeper alliance with the EU so that we may write our own futures — with our values, and our ambitions.

One more day of work, and then... holidays.

Can't wait to watch a buncha sweaty big dudes toss each other around like ragdolls.

Was petting little Gordon Ramsay (cat) and he decided to attack me with all his limbs and teeth at once. He tried a second time before realizing his attacks are futile, and he succumbed to pets and purrs.

Little fella tried to overthrow his government though (me in this case).

I'm so proud.

Ed should have consulted his friends.

Good on Beoga, and all the others who stay true to their souls and would rather sleep at night than make money and pretend it's all okay.

My friend's running for City Council and asked for a New Wave hit as a joke. Challenge accepted.

I had a little too much fun making this, and it's not New Wave, but it's fun.

I understand how ridiculous I am at least.

Time to make some tunes.

Enjoy your Saturday folks.

The greatest narrative of modern times is the relatively new obsession with "generational wealth".

Those who care most about it are the ones making our planet less habitable by the day and ensuring their 50 children have no future.

Maybe the children are their future food source.

The Yussef Days Experience Live from Capetown.

What a wonderful soundtrack to the workday. The rhythm players dream band, but Jacob McGibbon on the guitar really sets the mood and has such wonderful tone.

Well, I figured out how to make this thing make noise!

New rosin and a new bow sure takes a lot of elbow grease.

Even snapped the A string in the process of figuring out cello strings don't have to be so tight.

But... We are now cooking.

Sophie does what Sophie wants.

Happy #caturday ... It's raining, and we are venturing to pickup a cello and have a sauna / plunge.

... But first. Cat cuddles.

Enjoy the synth-poppy vibes and evolution as the song progresses.
