Dance Monkey & Miss Peach
Hey Ya'll (ya'll being specifically Millz and Andreas)
So I need to get my dance vids (and weirdo art painty-rolly vid) edited up so I can send that shiznit to Evan and get my website of dance rolling already (come on, how many months have we been talking bout this now?). I picked up the DVD from the dance show I was in over winter (that ya'll filmed as well) today, but, they happened to film the worst night for both pieces. I can deal with these versions, but I'd prefer to have yours. Weekends are really good times for me to meet. And if you can't do it (don't have time whatever), I ain't mad atcha, but let me know because then I need to find someone else to help me. ASAP.
Andreas, how's the paint one coming? Finished yet?
In any event, I still owe ya'll + Rybread good deeds for creating those bomb projections and filming. Andreas, you never told me what I could give you in return, and Mikey, I'm around this weekend and so on and so forth for masseuse skillz.
P.S. Kelly you're bomb! First time and you came in third! I've been wanting to give you a big hug since I heard bout the 4/20 alley cat. Can't wait to do it in May with you

psyphy machine radio streams 24/7/365.
Gentlemen, this shit is the future. There's enough psyphy out there to have a 24/hr radio station with fresh content all the time. And I should know, I've been listening to this shit nonstop for like 4 days now. Thank you so much for introducing me to psyphy, this is the music I've been waiting for my entire life. I really hope you guys keep DJ/VJing in that scene, Mad Zach/R2/everyone keeps pumpppin out the jamz, everybody gets dowm because it blows my mind to be connected to a culture that is so underground and ahead of the curve. Everyone I've played this shit for has experienced a serious dome-blossming.
Quoth the tribe post where I discovered it:
glitchfunk, muffincore, and strip-hop.
so dope it doesn't need a proper website.

go ahead and call me a punk, bitches
yo all this shit I keep hearing is nonsense. I'm sick of excuses. no planning and this shit is dead. either we step up are game or just admit that no one watered the plant and it died.
after youtubing yuris night, I think we might theres get away with this we might not
smurfs religion says he is all powerful and one with the universe, even if the rest of the universe has to not know that in order to exist. -but sense the universe is just an extension of me... I see no reason to not manipulate it to its full potential to suit...
so maybe we'll get away with this, maybe not... either way this can't just be gay shit...
laser tag, gay....
narwallagraphics gay,,,
wiimote gay,,
sorry thats all gay, black with writing on it is stupid... narwallagraphics are meaningless. the wiimote is realistically only implemented for the bunny game at this point,,
so none of those things will work at nasa, that is unless (as we've always said) they work together...
tonight is a show at the blue lagoon for wubakia. I'll do my best to make it.
I want to:
have narwallagraphics with live video feed of the band and laserpointer through millz laptop ontop of arkaos.
which would be switchable to the bunny game. theoretically we could have both.
I haven't plugged in the newest adapter yet. its like the old adapter only better because it has a flash chip reader in it, but I haven't seen if it works the same.
either we just go and bring it...
or get drunk and waste our time...
guess what I'm absolutely not down with...

yet another mbw edit.
minibike winter 2008 from Kelly Peach on Vimeo.
it only took me about 2 months too!
always be fifteen
chapter two of a book I'm readind (what they don't teach you in film school."
chapter 2: Always be Fifteen
At fifteen you don't believe in "authority." Not without questions, anyway. And certainly not more than you believe in your own.
Years later, you may be wiser but not smarter. You're worried about having money, car insurance, a job, etc., and for this you make some compromises to get the approval of the the people who are in a position to make this happen for you. You are afraid of losing something-- your nascent financial independnece--and this fear nudges you into a relationship to authority figures where you give over to them a certain piece of your brilliant, untamed self in exchange for....
some cash...
Loose End
Hey, so you remember those Japanese people we met at Burning Man who wanted me to be an underwear model. I just found the business card they gave me that had Mr. T on a dollar bill and I looked at their website, it seems awesome. Smurf, I thought you might be interested, didn't you get some funny footage of them? They are some goofy people.

Burning Man Bike Camp
Hello lovelies. Riley is pretending to be Millz. We are linking/posting/whatevering below the link to burning man's questionnaires for theme camp and art installation. Millz Will and Riley met tonight to talk a bit and we think we should have weekly meetings to get our shit together....like, we might need to start raising funds now to do stuff like rent a truck? CLICK IT!
an R2 update
Howdy Massers..
Much has happened with me in the past weeks and a lot of people are wonderin "Where's R2?"
Well, I've gained a lot of momentum in the world of audio and I've had 0 time to communicate with anybody outside the grind of the studio.
Most of my work has been for hire by this guy Jeremy Wheeler who's working on his full-length debut album but I haven't been working exclusively on that project.
Since the beggining of our last wave of recording we've recorded some of the best studio musicians I've ever met, achieved some of the sickest tones I've gotten in my career as engineer, and I even got to record an entire orchestra! (twice!). Now I have to start mixing the damn thing.
I got an awesome opportunity to go do a bit of work at the world class Hyde St studios in SF. Met some 'famous' and not-so-famous people, got to check out a slew of high quality gear that I will never be able to afford, picked the brains of people who move a lot of weight in the world of multimedia, but more or less took a few leaps forward on my path as an contributer to music.
I should really put my google calendar in a more accessible place for everyone to look at because the first time I posted it I wanted to express to everyone that I was going to 'disappear' from our groove for well over 3 weeks. Please don't take any offense. I don't love any body or any project any less than I did before. I'm just operating within realistic parameters taking into account time, income, energy, and ability to focus.
HOWEVER ... Yuri's night thats where you'll catch R2 narwallagramin' and I'm quite excited to have a game plan and a solid crew to go with. I'll be back in the swing for that and I have been hungrily awaiting the chance to dive more into actionscript and the technology of arkaos, flash, laser tag, opensource apps. The whole deal so that we can bust some shit like this:

Love Gutter
Yo! You guys have to check out this duo called "Love Gutter." I just saw them in the Atrium at the Catalyst and it was fucking awesome. They play all odd time signature polyrhythms on a trash can drum and an assortment of pots and pans. Their recordings are decent but its really more of a live experience. I think it would be awesome to have them play at a something we put on! They live here in Santa Cruz and frequently play on Pacific. Anyways, here's the link, check it out:
