Some asshole stole my bike from the yard last night. It was a cheapo 3 speed bike and I should get half of my money back from my home insurance but it's still a hassle. Bleh.

A Stranger in Tibet: The Adventures of a Wandering Zen Monk It's about a Japanese zen monk called Ekai Kawaguchi who in 1897 decides to got Tibet to search for Buddhists texts because he thinks the Chinese translations in Japan are not good enough. The guy is absolutely hell bent on getting to the scriptures. Tibet and Nepal were both closed from foreigners at the time and he learns the local languages by talking to children and women in the street, is robbed, is deserted by his guides, etc. He was also the first Japanese person to visit Tibet and Nepal. From the Wikipedia: From the book: It's a really fascinating book and gives a lot of background on Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism also.

Boards of Canada Boards of Canada - Tomorrow's Harvest
zkom replied to Alzado's topic in Boards of Canada
I would have expected this to be much darker given the subject matter and the Reach for the Dead preview. I think Geogaddi is way more dark and unsettling. I like TH anyways. Also just last week I had a dream of nuclear war between UK and Germany, lol. The euro crisis had broken up the EU and the old European states were at war again. People were cheering as their countries' nuclear bombers were flying overhead which was pretty chilling. -

You just know those three authors are about to see a minor bump in sales figures for the next month or two... I just read that Sacks book (Musicophilia) a few months ago. Oliver Sacks is selling tons as it is already, I don't think BOC fans can contribute any noticeable bump. -

Oh, and I also need to add Seesaw's Poetry. Good stuff.

For some reason I've been listening to a lot of ambient lately. Besides the usual stuff (The KLF, The Orb, FSOL, Biosphere, ...) I've listened to these: Rosy Parlane - Willow BJ Nilsen - Vinyl Lotide - Moonless V/A - Pop Ambient 2013 The last track on Pop Ambient 2013, Terrapin's cover of Cirrus Minor, is fucking trippy. I had fallen asleep while listening to the compilation and woke up when Cirrus Minor was playing. For a moment I thought I had dropped acid or something.

I haven't really drawn anything on paper in years except occasional doodling but yesterday I was listening to Biosphere and decided to do some drawing and made this up while Patashnik was playing..

I saw people in shorts and flip-flops when I was in Galway last February. It was like +3 degrees Celsius and constant drizzle. What the hell?

Having a steady job eats my credibility.

Yeah, it's a bit of a problem now because I don't really have a solution on how to place them properly, but I usually work with headphones and when mixing with speakers I listen from the other end of the room so it's not that bad for placement but the acoustics in that room are currently absolutely horrible. I need to work that out somehow.

Last autumn, but this is pretty much still my setup since I haven't really updated it lately.
