About me:

..

i spend most of my time trying to record tiny electrical currents and pulses of light from neurons and attempting to think not-as-tiny thoughts about it. its often a lot of frustration, but i don't know any other job that lets you use lasers and power tools, code, and bump my favorite jams everyday.

over the last 2 years my interests in music and in computers have collided in a painfully (in retrospect) obvious way, and i'm producing and djing in ableton live (mostly djing) when i have the time, and programming patches in max/msp. i'm hype to collab, so hit me up if you want to do something.

im: andrewgiessel


....

Who I'd like to meet:

neuro kids, people in cambridge with deep deep record crates, (digital) artists, graff writers, fixie fiends, meditators, bright burners and deep thinkers

    Great list of reading you have up. Have you gotten to Dan Simmons' Ilium and Olympos? One of the best combinations of textual science and fiction I've ever come across.

    I hear that you and your band have sold your turntables and bought guitars.
  • Jun 14 2007 3:32 AM

    I hear you're buying a synthesizer and an arpeggiator and are throwing your computer out the window because you want to make something real.

    . . .You want to make a Yaz record.
  • Jun 11 2007 5:08 PM

    I heard that your band sold all your guitars and bought turntables.

    Damn! Your comment made me dig out Takusagawa's note (c)...the agony. I particularly love the copyright symbol he put on there, considering that it seriously rips off Voet & Voet.
