Leave New York and lost my American Express card for the first time in my life. Picked up another card at airport and board the Concorde. Flight is smooth and fast. Aah, technology.

Music without limitations can be boring. It’s more exciting to make constraints and create resourcefully rather than to play with the net down. Free-form music can also seem arrogant as it doesn’t always invite the listener in or compel them to want to connect with it. The success of free music depends on its ability to connect at the “fourth dimension” (level of the conceptual), and the surface elements (how it sounds) are not as important.

Christo installs “The Gates” In Central Park, the largest public art project in New York history. this is fascinating, Not so much for the aesthetics, but all the Duchampian "fourth dimension" aspects.

I think with everyone making AI music as a listener as opposed to a writer or player allows you make something and realize you made something based at least on your original thoughts and ideas. It doesn’t always work right out of the box like a bag of trail mix out of a vending machine. You have to at least make the bag with an original design.

(Anthony Townes Diary)

For the past few months Dad has been coming in from Boston, and I think I've recovered enough to make my way back home. I need to reconcile and restitch those memories. I need to start making arrangements.

Lockmore's installation in Gates Park is being taken down. I hope this is an annual event.

Dad said he took his first airship trip from Boston to New York. Everyone was still making Hindenburg jokes. They are so cool—the type of cool thing that existed 150 years ago and just crashed and burned like the 90s-era Concorde.

What was the Lockmore installation all about?
