Best enjoyed at high volume with a good set of headphones.TEMPORIS http://theunraveling.org/?p=67 I've been working on a new musical project in my spare time (what there is of it!) and hope to have some finished material to post soon.

Field recording meets ... http://theunraveling.org/?p=66 So, is anyone else getting a sick feeling in their stomach watching events unfold these days?I just finished reading Nassim Nicholas Taleb's excellent and provocative "The Black Swan", so I'm not making any specific predictions on where things are heading, but it seems to me that we're driving towards some seriously ... http://theunraveling.org/?p=65 Dear Corporations,I would like to announce my candidacy for public office. Since the Supreme Court has now made it legal for you to spend money to influence elections, I am proposing a new, more cost-effective system to get the job done!

Sometimes my perfectionism pisses me off. Actually it's ironic that this would be the last track to complete... the last line is ... http://theunraveling.org/?p=59 An excellent article... one could almost trace this alliance of ignorance and self-interest back to Nixon and the "New South" but it certainly has reached a shrill note in the age of Palin. I've been concerned about these radical elements since Obama has become president, and while he has yet ... http://theunraveling.org/?p=58
