"there's almost two miles of line here," he tells him. "don't let go"

i logged my first hours in the cave tonight. it is a fine place. i only wish i had more to show for the time...
i'm working to finish an ep before the believers kick it in gear. click the link (www.myspace.com/comeonsingalong)for a peak.


finally, Navidson stops in front of an entrance much larger than the rest. it arcs high above his head and yawns into an undisturbed blackness. his flashlight finds the floor but no walls and, for the first time, no ceiling.
only now do we begin to see how big Navidson's house really is.

"It's perfectly true, as philosophers say, that life must be understood backwards. But they forget the other proposition, that it must be lived forewords. And if one thinks that over it becomes more and more evident that life can never really be understood in time simply because at no particular moment can i find the necessary resting place from which to understand it - backwards."

the track is called,

to travis (part 2)

spelunking

today we continued our journey in the cave. here's some pictures of the progress.

you can click the title/link for today's track.

the new tent

We are continuing our study of tents. the last record was recorded in a tent called 'the mansion' located inside the mansion on cortelyou. we no longer live there. this tent has the working title, "the cave" - here are some pictures of the first structures.

2nd to die

this is what i created today. It's part of our study of harmonies that has been going on for a while now. some day the two parts will be the same song.

Perhaps this is the beginning of something much bigger then what i'm actually, knowingly beginning.

I didn't go to work today. Work is a junior high in East New York Brooklyn. At 7:07 i called in sick. Today i want to write and record, plan my next unit and go to guitar center and the fabric store (and set up THIS blog). It would be nice to accomplish all of this and then be able to set up the tent.
