Live studio sessions of tracks about anything and everything

Firefly Jar

Songs based on chronicled poems of Ankit Choudhury, author of A Ballad of Chaos. These are songs based on stages of life, self-introspection, and the eternal dance between love and loss, duty and desire, hope and despair. Each verse is a reflection of moments lived, battles fought within, and the rebirth that follows every fall.

A Feather's Fall

The Last Reflection

A Land before Time

FIREFLY/STARLING Project Proposal: One of the species of music I do is algorithmic composition.

The intention is to side-step traditional metric notation altogether, and generate electronic sounds directly from their mathematical description.

TWO projects I’m working on involve the movement of sounds in objective or real space. Inspired by the Varèse, Xenakis, and Le Corbusier 1958 World's Fair Philips Pavilion—we did a reconstruction of this with the ASKO SCHOENBERG Ensemble years ago—I am hoping to implement a grid of a 40-voice sound source distributed over 400 light/speakers.

The simplest and most flexible way to do this would be an APP that audience members could download in situ that flashes colored lights on and off, while at the same time playing pitched percussive sound. This means that there are three versions of a piece: light only, lights + sound, and sound only. All versions could be performed in- or out-of-doors.

The first two pieces I’d like to realize both use simple swarm algorithms abstracted from Nature: (1) FIREFLY (2) STARLING.

FIREFLY: The primary parameter is how the 40 relatively autonomous voices—simple percussive, say, woodblock sounds—move in and out of synchronicity using complex, non-periodic rhythms. Secondary parameters are random spatial and random pitch distribution (a simple 4 octave C2 to C6 1/4-tone field). Other variables are total duration and max/min temporal density limits. 

STARLING: Here, there are two equal primary parameters, with an one octave ‘swarm’ of 1/4-tone pitches at high to low density over a six octave field—always maintaining coherence with the same simple percussive woodblock sound with clear spatial transients—that ‘flies’ around in pitch space. 

WORK PLAN: Start simple with laptop models: scale down to 4 voices in monophonic rendering; then, stepwise, scale up to 40 voices. Once optimal temporal and pitch densities are worked out, scale to spatial distribution adding a dynamic / amplitude 7-step scale ppp=far away // fff=very near, as well as stereo headphones output; from there, scale up to the next level with simple single-purpose smartphone wi-fi/cellular APP.

That’s it. Each piece would last about 10 minutes. They wouldn’t be written down, but generated anew each time.

If you’d like take part the FIREFLY/STARLING Project (pro bono) in any way—whether as coder, mathematician, AI specialist, or APP designer— or offer support in any way, you can email me at cliff@picture-poems.com

A standout cut from the Ballroom Records catalogue, Firefly by Kostas Maskalides is now featured in TEN: The Archive Series, Pt. 5 — a chapter celebrating the more melodic and house-driven side of our sound.

Defined by warm grooves and emotive atmospheres, the track highlights the refined, melo side of Ballroom’s Melodic House & Techno identity.

Enjoy listening!!!

🎸 On this episode of Talking Guitars on Johnny Beane TV, we kick things off with a powerful story — Black Sabbath legend Tony Iommi is raffling off one of his autographed mahogany Gibson SG guitars to raise funds for the cancer center at Birmingham’s Heartlands Hospital, where he once received treatment. An amazing gesture from a true rock hero! 🤘

Then we dive into gear talk with the brand-new IK Multimedia TONEX Plug — their first-ever headphone amp featuring over 40,000 tones powered by cutting-edge AI machine modeling. It’s compact, powerful, and ready to take on the Fender Mustang Micro+ and Boss Katana Go.

🔥 After that, I drop a YouTube Premiere — my full Firefly Jimmy Page Dragon Telecaster review and demo! You’ll see me play it live and show off the details of this eye-catching guitar.

Finally, we head over to the workbenches: Ron keeps working on his Buck Owens Firefly, while I hunt for parts for my Strat build. In the meantime, I swapped out the end pins on that $40 Silvertone Stratocaster I built live on Wednesday.

Yazan Kalem Siyah - Anatolian Rock Version (Produced with Suno AI) / Glamor Music

“Little Lantern of the Garden” by Dr. Elliot Lach is a meditative, heart-softening song about a lone firefly who lights the garden each summer night. Its glow is small, silent, and miraculous—light without heat, flame, batteries, or wires. As the seasons shift and the nights grow cooler, the firefly’s glow slowly fades, reminding us of the quiet beauty of impermanence.
The song reflects on the firefly’s wordless language: tiny flashes that speak in a secret code only other fireflies understand. They make no sound, no hum or buzz—only a drifting constellation of pulses drifting through the dark. Even as scientists use technology to study this shining pattern, the firefly remains a symbol of life’s simplest and briefest wonders.
A gentle tribute to fading summer, quiet miracles, and the luminous things that pass softly through our lives.

Ankit is a software architect by trade; artist, writer, wanderer, bookworm and gamer by passion; and a dad by bond.

A Ballad of Chaos is a series of books written in his 20s as a form of self-introspection. The books are now available as published media, 15 years later, rewritten with wisdom gained over the years.

The music is being created by the author himself and is mostly DIY. Collabs are welcome!

Tony Toscano is a nationally recognized movie critic and film historian who has been reviewing films for over 4 decades. Tony grew up in Southern California, just outside Los Angeles.

While attending Jr. High School, Toscano began writing a weekly movie review column for his school paper. Directly because of his weekly column, Tony was asked to write a film review column for the San Gabriel Valley Tribune and a music review column for “The record Collector's Journal.”

Always interested in television and film, it’s no surprise Tony's first job was a disc jockey at his hometown radio station and began to review films and interview celebrities as a regular feature of his radio show and “Talking Pictures” was born.

Moving from Los Angeles to Utah to co-host a morning radio show on Utah's KABE FM 107, his film reviews were heard once a week and became a staple of the popular morning program.

Toscano began taking live calls from listeners and discussing current movies.

In 1996 Tony made the jump from radio and newspapers to television as the film critic on CBS in Salt Lake City, and then to KJZZ TV where he hosted the popular "Movie Review Show" and then his own production, "Talking Pictures."

In 2002 Tony was honored with his first Emmy Award as “Best Discussion Program.” In 2007 Toscano received his 2nd Emmy for hosting Talking Pictures.

Taking his award winning program coast to coast, Toscano has been able to syndicate Talking Pictures to over 65 million households around the USA and in nearly 120 countries worldwide.

In May of 2008 “Talking Pictures” moved to ABC-4 and Utah’s CW-30.

Toscano is also the film reviewer and entertainment guru for ABC-4’s “Good Morning Utah" and “Midday."

Additionally, Tony is heard on a number of radio stations across the US, including I Heart Radio's  top- rated “Morning Zoo with Frankie and Jess” on 97.1 ZHT in Salt Lake City, where his reviews have been heard for nearly 2 decades.

His fellow reviewers regard Tony as "one of the country’s best celebrity interviewers." As his in-depth conversations with such notable stars as George Clooney, Harrison Ford, Angelina Jolie, Steven Spielberg, Jeff Goldblum, Gwyneth Paltrow and Denzel Washington show a different and more relaxed side of celebrities.

In 2006 Toscano co-hosted the acclaimed series “Hot Topics” for Atlanta’s ABC affiliate WSB TV.

Working with Utah students in apprenticeships and internship programs, Tony is instrumental in instructing qualified and deserving students in the art of television production.

Tony Toscano is member in good standing of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (BFCA), a former board member of the Salt Lake City Film Center and the founder of the Utah Film Critics Society.

When not previewing, reviewing or interviewing Tony can be found somewhere in the mountains of Utah stream fishing or at his BBQ.
