*SEE BELOW FOR FINAL INFO. LET'S ALSO TRY TO PRODUCE SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR THE FALL FORMAL. ----- I'm sure this idea has been proposed before by someone, but with everything going on related to SITC, the Chew and View, the Skype meetings, and the hitRECord Artshow, I wanted to actually get started with setting up a monthly LIVE meeting between local hitRECorders. Many people have expressed the incredible opportunities that come with a LIVE meeting that simply is not available in this 'post-based' environment. To get you excited, let me rattle off a few hitRECordy things that could happen with regular meet-ups: -- brainstorming and bouncing ideas off each other! -- getting a team together to go out and make a short film! -- showing each other lesser-known but still amazing records on hitRECord! -- street teamy advertisey promotey stuff! -- reading/acting hitRECorder writing LIVE and receiving instant feedback! -- recording multiple musicians at once! -- utilizing each others' equipment/props/costumes...etc. (aka PHYSICAL things)! -- creating a boardgame! -- creating a single collaborative art piece/ urban art projects! -- presenting tutorials/sharing tips (video editing, animation, sound recording, even...cooking?)! -- playing improv games! AND WE'D POST THE RESULTS! My proposed itinerary, both for our first meet and meetings in general: Saturday, September 25th 2-4 PM - meet at Bryant Park (free WiFi!) at the fountain as a big sloppy group. http://www.bryantpark.org/plan-your-visit/map.html - everyone introduces themselves and their interest in hitRECord - we show a couple 'hidden gems' found on hitRECord - brainstorming session for random, CRAZY ideas specific to what we could do with the people there. - we pick a few to focus on for at least the coming month. - everyone picks one or two (depending on the scale) that they would be excited to participate in. - separate into groups to plan how we'll go about reaching certain reasonable checkpoints in the various projects over the coming month. 4-5 PM -for anyone interested, I'll give a short tutorial on using Adobe Premiere and AfterEffects - someone else gives a short tutorial on something else (let me know if you'd be willing!) -goodbyes...or maybe food? OVER THE NEXT MONTH : meeting with your group, maybe a couple times per week, maybe just once, to do whatever you need to do to reach your project's immediate goals. Saturday, October 23 2-4 PM : Bryant Park again! Same idea, except now we're also giving each other updates on the various projects, and maybe even World Premiers of a few!! So, as I said, I want this to happen. What'd you think?Let's conversationalize this and maybe we'll modify things a little (even the date if there's compelling reason to), but the point is to actually get going with some regular meetings and start getting all messy and creative face to face! PS- I'm doing NYC, because that's obviously, where I'm living right now, but with everyone discussing this and a little trial and error, hopefully we can set up a template for anyone who wants to start up a Chapter in their own city! Fight Clubs, but way more intense :) |

My first piece with a great composition program called Ableton Live, playing with a little ditty I've had swimming around my head for a while. Thanks to my brother Mat for coming up with the more interesting percussion parts!
A taste of my wacky brand of storytelling music. I would love to play PIANOS. If YOU would love me to play PIANOS, press that cute little hearty recommend button! Thanks thanks thanks.

Lyrics:
Do you remember preschool?
And its innocent stories?
Playing with blocks and laughing
Mining knowledge like endless quarries...
Do you remember Huggies?
And the chicken pox scandals?
Eating lots of woodchips
And playing on monkey bar handles.
Yes that was nice, wasnt it? Fond memories.
Well how about the social classes?!
Do you remember those?
Kids with Osh Kosh bGosh overalls
While others could barely afford clothes
Idealistic differences
Capitalism and communism could be found
Jimmy would make a dirt pile
And Joey wanted everyone to have an equal mound!
(solo)
And we had an economy
Trading Legos and shovels
And secret languages encoded in spit bubbles
And the girls fought the guys
For playground domination
We had rule by government with
Leaders of manipulation
And I was one of them, giving bullcrap orations
Like when I told Sam
I have a treehouse to the sky
With an express elevator
And a room where you can fly
And I told Morgan that
Didja know you can travel through time
By swinging around on a swingset
The dizziness is a sign
That youre in the future
Take me to the future
We're going to the future
On this magical swingset
All you gotta do is pay me
With that ninja turtle dagger
And soon, we will be, in the future
You and me, in the future!

Understanding structure and load distribution can be very confusing. Whether you're an architecture student like myself whose going into the field specifically so they don't have to think about such things, or an engineer who really just has no idea what's going on, this short film is here to help.

The German Facade Analysis Expert presents how the Loisium Winery by Steven Holl came to be in one minute.
I wish you were a lamp, so I could turn you on.
I wish you were a stapler, so you could hold it together, hun.
I wish you were a bag o' pens, so I could buy you en masse.
I wish you were a crystal paperweight,
Cause then you'd have a little class!
Now tell me,
Why can't you be, an office supply store,
Why can't you be just a little bit more?
You could be an ordinary girl, or
You could be my Office Supply Store
I'm sorry, it's not you, it's me who needs to get things together.
I wish I was a nail, so I could be sharp as a tack
I wish I was a warrantied area mat, so instead of walking all over me you could just get your money back
I wish I was a concrete block, so you couldn't push or shove me
I wish I was a new house, so you would call me home, and love meeee
Why can't I be, a hardware supply store?
Why can't I be just a little bit more
I don't wanna just lie here and take it anymore!
I could be your hardware supply store...
Supply store.
