Hello, David, Ruth, the OAR Experience, the muscle-bound, the bound for glory, would-be out-of-bound-ers, and all.

Throwing the I-Ching just now, pick-up sticks for the future-curious. I'll be listening appropriately.

Got to Brooklyn for some live music this week-Nels Cline at Roulette on Monday, "From Cage to Cunningham", acoustic guitar, bass, harp, voice, very nice performance. (One of these days I'll make it to Outpost)

Good afternoon David, Ruth and all listening

I missed you djazz, was out of town that day. But was very interested in what Nels Cline was up to. Two good shows coming to Outpost in Feb.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:37pm

And good evening to you, fred. Listening to you, too!

Have seen Nels Cline many times, but never a whole show on acoustic guitar. It was really nice.
What's happening at Outpost? If I remember, concerts used to mostly be Thursday nights (which is my late night in the office, generally can't do anything then)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:56pm
david w:

Cool. Outpost shows coming: Purest Butter, Feb. 13 Clebs (Emilie Weibel and Jason Nazary), plus Joanna Mattrey - viola with Tal Yahalom - trumpet and Chris Williams - guitar, stud1nt - Modular rig, Daniel Carter - woodwinds and brass and Jonah Rosenberg - synthesizer and electronics // Feb. 20 Sue Garner & Talice Lee plus Dan Joseph on hammered dulcimer, Jason Cady on synthesizers and Tom Chiu on violin. outpostartistsresources.org

The David Lang piece I kinda heard yesterday featured a lot of words in its first half, but nothing confrontational. I didn't pay enough attention, despite Maya Beiser's play I was focused on the dance
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:59pm
david w:

I have trouble with words at times. Depends on the setting, the sound quality, my state of mind. Or else I go where you did, watching.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:01pm
doctorjazz:

Yup, both Thursday shows... : (
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:09pm
fred:

I often don't like words much, though it's mainly narration that bores me (and meaning to an extent). When they're mundane with a rhythmic side, I don't mind, and it was the case yesterday
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:09pm
doctorjazz:

There was spoken word at the Nels Cline show...letters written by John Cage to Merce Cunningham. (I also often Have difficulty following words at shows)
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:23pm
Webhamster Henry:

@Dr. Jazz I know Laura Kuhn was working on those letters for a long time!
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:25pm
Webhamster Henry:

I think lyrics are overrated, so that's why I'm so interested in generated speech. My app Enumero is all about that. It's using concatenative synthesis, so it's both realistic and robotic.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:32pm
fred:

@Henry: How long are the grains? Whole phonemes?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:33pm
david w:

fred read my mind.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:44pm
Webhamster Henry:

@fred in Enumero, yes, whole phonemes or words. Mostly its counting in various ways. But it also uses its counting interface to link together phonemes, sometimes non too smoothly. The must fun is "Schwa" which makes up wordlets that only have the vowel 'ə' in them (so I only need 125 samples instead of hundreds). Then you can feed the stream of nonsense to other effects like pitch modulators.

"Sometimes you just want to count something, or count to some number or just count for no particular reason. Enumero counts out loud and expands on the idea of counting out loud until it doesn't resemble counting out loud very much at all. "
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:45pm
Webhamster Henry:

It can count using Dr. Nerve's "Nerve Events", which indeed is not very much like counting at all.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:47pm
Webhamster Henry:

It also has German CONET numerals in case you want to run your own numbers station.

@Henry: it reminds me of a dance show I saw late last year: they were counting as they danced, but after a while (around a thousand I think) they increased the "by" factor. Another side of it that their voices were affected as the show went on and exertion set in
