La vida es  buena la eternidad mejor prepárate para las dos !!

Let it go

Don’t lose your spiritual spark,the 40 day challenge explained

Why do I get so many negative thoughts when I want to pray.

The paradox of validation

Self confidence and self control the key elements in every relationship.

Experiment Participants

a good friend of mine painted a series of images based on descartes' "meditations on first philosophy."

https://www.lowwintersun.org/work/descartes-meditations

i took painting number 6, sliced it into five strips, fed the images into photosounder, the converted the resulting .wav files to MIDI (quantized to 16ths). i used the MIDI clips separately to trigger various samples: kick; snare; low tom; floor tom; hi-hat. i added a steady hi-hat pedal to help navigate the slightly offbeat rhythms.

finally, i layered in a live guitar piece (played through VCV rack, which i first encountered through disquiet junto, many moons ago...)

some possible questions: how can we think about the relationship between something rhythmic (the "beat") and something a-rhythmic (the "ambient" guitar)?
do they feel like two utterly separate streams, or do they somehow inform each other?
also, my track is only one minute long - can something so short be called 'ambient'?
more generally, can such a brief composition claim to establish a mood or atmosphere?

(wittgensteinian thought: i can claim to have felt sad for one minute, but not to have been depressed for one minute. certain moods or states require longer stretches of time to operate.)

all the best, htnc

I used the track:  HalF frugaL ( https://soundcloud.com/half-unusual/half-frugal-disquiet0593-featuring-marc-eisenschink-and-encym). Having downloaded the solo (twice), the duet & the trio, after carefully adjusting the dynamics, I arranged them in a canon-like sequence & then added a degree of reverb.
