Enjoying the show. Great diversion from pouring rain and earthquake notice (did not feel it on West side of LA)

greg technology:

Colin, “live coding” usually refers to a kind of musical performance where the musicians are programming (aka coding) in real time using a kind of software that makes music. They (the musicians) change the programming in real time, which results in different sounds. In other words, they’re playing music using their computers! :) cheers

love this. It really is like an ecosystem. I have some very fond, evocative (to me) memories of Bangkok. I stayed there a few days about 10 years ago. (one of them was having a Komodo on my hotel window screen for hours)

I realize this is a totally different cultural reference point -yet, some of these wonderful recordings are having me recall a lovely recording from QUERCUS ENDORPHINA (OREKA TX ?):”elklarlanean” 2001 (?). An wonderful sounding percussive album originating from Spanish Basque Country.
