Computer scientist and artist living in Hanoi, Vietnam. Unapologetically leftist.
First Massive Attack and Tom Waits, now Boards of Canada releasing new music... And for some reason I've been listening intensively to GY!BE these past weeks... Getting a weird "time slip" vibe.

Setting a vocal rhythm from a Spiritual over a March was an inspired and perfect choice for this.
Of course this is uncompromising in its message; nobody involved is known to be particularily quiet in the face of injustice.

An absolutely important and essential song!

Following the attempted murder of a trans woman. Cops just let the alleged perp go. So actionists from the Mexican sex workers union stormed the judicial building.

Honey, no, Daddy's tired, I'm not singing another nursery rhyme... All right, one more song before going to bed, but the last one -- and I choose it, OK? OK. Here goes.

Debout, les forçats de la faim..."

Quite proud of this track (released under the name "No Time"), first because Flaming Pines is a wonderful label, but more importantly because it was an honor to be invited as part of my "adopted musical family" of Vietnam.

I'm a musician in exactly this way:
« He objected to the fact that you had to be good at magic to be a wizard. He *knew* he was a wizard, deep in his head. Being good at magic didn’t have anything to do with it. That was just an extra, it didn’t actually *define* somebody. » (T. Pratchett, Sourcery)

Music-making as therapy, side A: "I'll express my feelings with this wonderful language".
Side B: "ohshitohshitohshit this soundscape has a life of its own now and it's taking me to emotional terrain I was NOT prepared to tread".

Being here reminds me of earlier days of social media, and put me in a mood to re-listen to my music of yore... This is the first track I ever released, nearly 12 years ago; a bit messy, but interesting sounds.

Cuc Phuong forest, Vietnam, a few years ago -- my first time seeing a stick insect in the wild... This elegant individual was as long as my forearm, and as much as I love 🦗🪲, it did creep me out quite a bit at first...
