about

This one was in some ways the opposite of last week--then, I'd had to chase the music around. My state of mind wasn't the right kind of receptive, at first, but technically, everything went well. This time, however, there were technical problems with the stream and the first part of the performance. (OS update permissions issues, no visual for the stream, state drift between the latest Max and older MiRA, the patch losing contact with the Bluetooth foot controller, a cable under the volume pedal...)

So...there were a lot of distractions...but the music appeared pretty much right away, and stayed serene throughout. As long as I trusted the music, everything would work out. What you hear is the result.

We're almost at the one-year mark for lockdown/isolation. I hope you're well, and finding connection, even at a distance. Thank you for listening!
