Pop music, speeches, live phone calls and spontaneous monologues become ambient loopy layered threads riding the liminal spaces between waking and dreaming. [On hiatus.] (Visit homepage.)

You're like AlanWatts played Backwards.
Avatar 6:27pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

I'd be flattered, if Alan Watts would let me believe that life has a purpose or objective

I took an elective in college titled Amadeus: Mozart and Myth, that contrasted Shaffer's play and Zeffirelli's movie to the facts, with plenty of music amid all of it, and it was utterly fascinating. Had the fortune of its being taught by the head of the college music department. Even got to see a real-live harpsichord.

If my brain works correctly (it usually doesn't), the Cranes did an album based on Sartre texts. I never got around to listening to it (and I like the Cranes early stuff).

Don, yes. Me too. Don, this very show, too many to list here. A crazy show on Portland radio in the 70s called Radio Lab (decades before the podcast of the same name). Certainly Ken Nordine's 80s Word Jazz series.

If you listened to the "listen live" links, try again now that show is over, because the audio archive is much higher quality.
