I had that software. Didn't work on me.

Recent solo improvisation at <fidget>. I mean, who does this?!
This was a worthless digital asset
Noticed a new option in Turbo Tax
There is no way to watch the new 'Harry Potter' show subversively. If you're watching, you are buying in.
Actually, that would be my favored bio: "Sometimes, I have cool ideas."
I revised my bio, which, who cares? But it always reminds me that I made this back in the day to visualize stupid bios and make them playable. Sometimes, I have cool ideas. bhobrainey.com/about/see
Me, id m theftable, and Flandrew Fleisenberg play solos Saturday at Fidget, Philly. bhobrainey.com/live/1MMkJdN...

I don't know that I have many Ithaca followers here but in the event that I do, a reminder that our garage art/performance space Neighbors Gallery is hosting Bhob Rainey and Lucky Crumbs this Sunday evening and I'm excited to hear the music and to give our new PA system a whirl!
I am very pleased to welcome old friend and amazing musician Bhob Rainey to Ithaca in a couple weeks on March 1st
I only discovered his music recently (guess I'm a dummy), but I sure listened to it a lot once I got smart. Particularly Dockings and Burundi. The latter in spite of a perhaps too generous helping of didgeridoo. RIP
I often think about the time that hitchBOT got destroyed in Philadelphia and everyone was like, Ha ha, of course! That's the only city in America with stupid and violent people! And then I wonder what people would do now if an obsequious robot showed up on their street.
Finished the first last month. So good. It's kinda good to be outside the lit world, because I'm sure that within it are a lot of people being annoying about Knausgaard.
Got anything March 2nd or 3rd?
Both beautiful, it's true

Been a resident of the e6ast most of my life, and that's how we say it.
As the sun sets in the e6ast, the West still glows with Bandcamp Friday light. bhobrainey.bandcamp.com/album/live-2...
On Friday I'm going to release Live 25 - Saxy Bootlegs Good Title. It's a little over an hour of solo soprano sax performances from this year, recorded by audience members. Includes footfalls, chair squeaks, passing vehicles, idling vehicles, idling vehicles with sub woofers, and soprano saxophone.
From back in the summer, when I played in a crooked house.

See ya in Red Hook on Wednesday night, NYC
Fire Walk With Me is such an incredible and devastating film, I often think it's a shame that it is nearly impossible to grok without familiarity with the TP canon, particularly in the way the film subverts it. At least that canon is also great.
There's a lot of ChatGPT in the ensuing thread. It's like there's no other way to access thought
I mean, it would be so cool to be amazed that you can type some words and get something that reminds you of recorded music in a very short period of time. It's surprising and weird! But then context steps in.
It's also kinda funny that the app inserts "neon lights" and "whispers" into lyrics so often that platforms are flagging songs with those words in them.
This probably reads as dinosaur talk to the converts, but, as I've said elsewhere about all these kinds of things, playing an instrument in a group is, at minimum, fun. Fussing with prompts at a black box that would happily burn Jupiter for a country song is, at maximum, sad.

Right now, a bunch of people are paying Suno for the privilege of training and beta testing it until it either dies or goes fully "enterprise" pricing.
