Description: I apologize profoundly for my absence during our recent meeting. My nonattendance was the result of the crushing existential weight of my antecedent selves. These antecedent selves, the collected entities of my past iterations and experiences spanning over 500 years, tend to surface unannounced, immersing me in a myriad of emotions and memories.

I played bass and electronics with ambient music pioneer Jon Hassell from 2014-2020 and designed the final software-based iteration of his live/studio rig, which we used in the sessions for his last two albums, Listening to Pictures and Seeing Through Sound.

Unfolding is the first track from my forthcoming album 'Ambient Bass Guitar' (to be released June 9 2023)which began to take shape in 2022 when I took the software setup I’d made for Jon and used it with my bass guitar, opening up new frontiers of sonic exploration. 

I also decided to take Jon’s approach to recording here: one take, with no edits or overdubs. He always felt that the best way to record was to catch the magic of the moment.

All the sounds you hear were produced in real time using complex chains of processing and effects, a live dialogue between a musician and his computer. These sounds are made possible by advanced audio technologies but every note here was played by human fingers on metal strings.

Prelude

I apologize profoundly for my absence during our recent meeting. My nonattendance was the result of the crushing existential weight of my antecedent selves. These antecedent selves, the collected entities of my past iterations and experiences spanning over 500 years, tend to surface unannounced, immersing me in a myriad of emotions and memories.

On Friday, December 8, The Agile Alliance is hosting a MiniCon on the Future of Artificial Intelligence. During the event, Mark Kilby will be hosting a roundtable discussion with the speakers to explore the ways AI is poised to impact how we work and what it will take to utilize it in an ethical and responsible way. 

Mark joins me in this episode of the podcast to discuss why he made a conscious decision to get schooled up on AI, how he’s going about doing it, some of the key learnings he has had along the way, and his take on what the future of AI has to offer those of us work in the agile space and project management.
