Wordplay a friend (http://hitrecord.org/users/silverladder) thought up:
"... My mind is constantly running; constantly playing with words, even when I'm not consciously doing it. No joke. So the phrase 'bowl of oatmeal' was in my head this morning... My mind started messing with the letters in the words and suddenly I thought, 'Owl Of Boatmeal!'"
I like to call the squid Quaken.

Hello again... Well, it’s been a little while. Thanks to everyone who contributed their love and support this last month since dan died. I’m still feeling pretty low these days, but I’m looking forward to taking a few ginger steps back to work. I know that’s what he’d want. So, without further ado, I’d like to finally announce a project that’s been in the works for a good six months or so -- HITRECORD.ORG presents Joseph Gordon-Levitt RE:Acting & RECording -- a college tour. We’re going to do live presentations at a handful of universities around the country to speak to young, talented, ambitious artists and invite them into our collaborative community. Our initial plans had been grander in scope, but considering everything that’s happened in the last month, we decided to scale it down. I’ll only be going to campuses in L.A. and New York, and I apologize to the other schools I had planned on also visiting: Ohio State, University of Pittsburgh, Vasser and University of Rhode Island. I doubt this will be the last time we do this sort of thing, and I look forward to making up those dates in the future. These presentations will be a bit less of a “rockin’ evening out” as were the Summer in the City and SxSW shows and a bit more discussion-oriented like the Sundance presentations. I’m looking forward to really delving into hitRECord’s collective creative process, the general state of mass media today, and the broader questions that have faced artists since forever. And I’m confident that we’ll all end up working with some cool and talented new hitRECorders. The dates are: UCLA - Nov 8, UPenn - Nov 17, Columbia - Nov 19, NYU - Nov 20, and USC - Nov 22. Needless to say, we’ll be RECording the whole time so nobody will miss anything, and so we can all remix those RECords into new Results. And of course, as we play various exemplary RECords at these presentations, the contributing artists will share in the tour’s profits. It’ll be a gradual process getting back into the swing of things, but the notion of working with you guys again makes me feel good and optimistic. thanks again <3 J |

This is the first piece I'm posting to hitRECord. Figured I might as well start with my newest. More to come!!
Sometimes things happen, and make us feel lonely, and blue, whatever we do, but, there is always people who care about us, and give us their hearts, for us to feel better.
We have to go on.
Made with my friend Raidiane who will soon join Hitrecord.

Just wanted to remind you all about the Victory Ice Cream Collab... http://www.hitrecord.org/records/20570 dan and I did some version of Victory Ice Cream pretty much every Thursday for more than 6 years. We somehow managed to get in touch, no matter where we were in the world, every Thursday, always, from our very first date on. (Thurs. Sept 2, 2004) Thursday is the day of our annual Burning Man date (best night on the Playa) and we had a standing date every year on the first Thursday in March (6 months from Burning Man) and it's when our secret club would meet, when we'd do our rituals and walk around the parking lot and conspire and take stock of what we've done and what we have yet to do. It was a Thing. Victory Ice Cream started on our second date, actually, when I made him that patchy hat and we went busking on Thursday night in Hollywood (a first for both of us) and afterward we went and got the original Victory Ice Cream with the spoils. Anywayz - I woke up all crushed last Thursday, just so lonely in this forever kind of way, and I thought "Its Thursday, but who will I share my Victory Ice Cream with? Because I've tried so damned hard and I've been so Victorious..." and I cried and cried. But then I wrote it up on Facebook and like 60 people shared their victories with me and with one another. dan would have freaking loved that! But what he would have loved even more was if I did it here on HitRECord instead... So today I went to start a collab, and I realized dan already started one a long time ago! Yay! It works like this: you tell us your Victory (big or small!) and then you get to reward yourself with Victory Ice Cream (or a healthy equivalent - though Ice Cream is best) and you also entitle yourself to a High Five. (you get it by giving one to someone nearby) You can also post what you're working on and what you're playing for next week. Please do! (artistic records are the coolest way to do so...) And post Victory RECords! (if possible of you actually doing the Victorious Act) and also RECords of the Ice Cream! ^5 Tea* |
