q. is there a story behind the mix?

i’d say put it in the background while hanging out at home and let the music set the mood 

q. describe a favorite object in your living room…

there are many, but if i have to single one out, it would probably be a stereoscope i made for my gf and myself from some photo collages

etiquette, the current alias of Taryn Blake Miller (formerly known as Your Friend), is a Kansas-born,
Brooklyn-based sound artist, producer, and lighting designer. etiquette's work is “feeling-forward” and spans
diverse creative realms. Hazy, lush, cinematic, yet intimate, their projects are akin to moving through rooms,
favoring a precision in authenticity over perfection in the artifact.
As a producer and songwriter, Miller's recent credits include a collaborative EP with Julie Byrne (Ghostly
International, 2023), where they produced, co-wrote, engineered, and mixed. They also composed and
performed the live score for A– Company’s October 2023 collection,
"Antigone Score.
" From 2014 to 2023,
Miller was a recording and performing artist with Domino Recording Co., where they were the sole songwriter
and co-producer of releases such as "Jekyll/Hyde" (2014) and "Gumption" (2016). They are also a 2016 Red
Bull Music Academy alumna.

Algorithms can compose music, write poetry and generate art. Artificial intelligence wins literature contests and has work exhibited in galleries, but experts contend we’ve only scratched the surface of what is possible. Aleksandra Przegalińska is an academic, working in the field of AI philosophy, affective data and machine learning. She explores the question of how AI can accelerate the human potential for producing art. In conversation with Ewa Drygalska.

Unsound Talk 01: Non-Human Aesthetics - Rethinking Creativity in the Age of AI

'A dazzling, vibrant, vision-changing book. I ended it wonderstruck at the fungal world. A remarkable work by a remarkable writer’ Robert Macfarlane, author of Underland

The more we learn about fungi, the less makes sense without them.

Neither plant nor animal, they are found throughout the earth, the air and our bodies. They can be microscopic, yet also account for the largest organisms ever recorded. They enabled the first life on land, can survive unprotected in space and thrive amidst nuclear radiation. In fact, nearly all life relies in some way on fungi.

These endlessly surprising organisms have no brain but can solve problems and manipulate animal behaviour with devastating precision. In giving us bread, alcohol and life-saving medicines, fungi have shaped human history, and their psychedelic properties have recently been shown to alleviate a number of mental illnesses. Their ability to digest plastic, explosives, pesticides and crude oil is being harnessed in break-through technologies, and the discovery that they connect plants in underground networks, the ‘Wood Wide Web’, is transforming the way we understand ecosystems. Yet over ninety percent of their species remain undocumented.

Entangled Life is a mind-altering journey into a spectacular and neglected world, and shows that fungi provide a key to understanding both the planet on which we live, and life itself.

'One of those rare books that can truly change the way you see the world around you. Astounding' Helen MacDonald, author of H Is for Hawk
