Shee-it, here's some "field recordings" for you.

Geir Jenssen (Mr. Biosphere) is famous for his ambient works, and his use of field recordings. He's not generally known for political themes in his music. It's a pretty good piece of music, with or without context.

Test Tone @ Home live right now: http://mixlr.com/illuminator/chat Still haven't diagnosed last week's sound issues. Using a different ADC this week.

Un-fucked things ...for the moment.

Ugh. Silence again. It's almost assuredly the Mixlr app (updated yesterday). Everything else in my signal path is behaving as it should.

...or not. There's some problem where I'm getting no sound. Fixed.

Don't bother watching this unless you're amused by video games, and nerds.

The Macintop's video chipset is having ...issues. Apparently late 2011 MBPs are infamous for this problem. It's going in to see a genius at 7:45 tonight. I replaced the original spinny HDD with an SSD. Should I bother swapping the original drive back in? I have done so when I've taken in the machine for servicing in the past. I really don't WANT to right now, and a friend of mine says Apple are much less likely to squawk about such things now than they used to be.

My Macintop's video chipset is most likely dead or dying (it's a 2011 MPB, they're plagued with this issue). There almost assuredly will be no show tonight.
