Fascinating, Leonard -- the kids down in SoCal would probably melt bananas to this. This guy, for instance: youtu.be/hJdF8DJ70Dc

Disquiet Junto Project 0492: Kintsugi Rework

The Assignment: Employ the Japanese technique of mending broken ceramics as a metaphor for remixing.

Step 1: This week’s project explores the ceramic method called “kintsugi.” If the term is unfamiliar, read up on it a bit. Here’s a description from an article in the Washington Post: “That means ‘golden joinery’ in Japanese, and it refers to the art of fixing broken ceramics with a lacquer resin made to look like solid gold. Chances are, a vessel fixed by kintsugi will look more gorgeous, and more precious, than before it was fractured.”

Step 2: Consider how kintsugi can be employed, through metaphor, as a means to rework/remix an existing piece of music.

Step 3: Take an existing track, perhaps one of your own, and by some means “break” it.

Step 4: Take the “broken” piece of music from step 3 and make it whole by employing a musical adoption of kintsugi.

I originally created this tune over 30 years ago. Here it is again, shorter and probably more in tune than those happy days ;)

Taylor Sheridan has made many socially topical films that can be described as art noir neo Westerns in some ways. He is most known for writing Sicario, Hell or High Water, Wind River and Sicario 2. He has directed the recent disaster film and literal disaster TO THOSE WHO WISH ME DEAD but his previous contributions are so rich we will forgive him.

Hey, I decided to rework a all-percussion track I finished two days ago and posted for the weekly haiku challenge [here](https://soundcloud.com/daniel-diaz/the-serpent-pulse-3-naviarhaiku387)
I added a layer of an orchestral track and broke the percussion master to create holes where the orchestral score pops up. Then , on some places I played with filters to make the orchestral layer "leak" through the percussive parts. It was fun.

My 33 1/3 series book about the Aphex Twin album <i>Selected Ambient Works Volume II</i> was published in 2014. The book was one of the top 5 bestselling titles for the calendar year, and in 2015 was ranked by Pitchfork as one of the "33 best" of the 100-plus books in the 33 1/3 series. It has subsequently been translated into Japanese (2019) and Spanish (2018)

Since 2012 I have moderated the Disquiet Junto group, which began on SoundCloud. More at disquiet.com/junto. 

I've written for Nature, Pitchfork, The Wire, Down Beat, Boing Boing, NewMusicBox, Red Bull Music Academy, Art Practical, the website of The Atlantic, and many other publications. 

I've exhibited sound art at galleries in Los Angeles (Crewest), Manhattan (apex art), and Dubai (DUTAC), and I had a audio-visual installation at the San Jose Museum of Art as part of its 45th anniversary.

And since 1996 I've run the website Disquiet.com about the intersection of sound, art, and technology.

Myself creation commercial spots, audio / visual branding of clients everyone over Asia!  Addition that stylish touched to yours next production line!
