A live, improvised sound collage experiment, going back 28 years, weaving mesmerizing new soundscapes from found and collected materials right in the present moment.
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.)

It doesn't go for the entire program but it is quite a stretch to my memory. I hesitated last time I considered resurrecting it for the daytime. Today, I ran forth.

Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

You can call in next week for 20 minutes!
Avatar 2:40pm

I think a 20-min. call is, generally speaking, too long. A caller has to be really interesting to span that amount of time.

Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

"But the four alarm fire isn’t the length of copyright. The four-alarm fire is that large, multinational corporations have figured out ways to monetize our music, our lyrics, without cutting us in on that. The currency of page views, the currency is you can set up a website that has the top 20 song lyrics, charge advertising on it, do your SEO right and you’ve got a top 500 Alexa website and you generate revenue from that. And you don’t cut in the artist. So this is kind of like the old music business of when the artist would sign a contract and they wouldn’t get any royalties; it’d go to the record companies and you’d ask them 'where are my royalties,' and the record company would say, 'Hey, here’s a Cadillac.' This is the same, old-school music business, except you don’t even get the Cadillac."

which seems somehow related to the federal gov't delcaring that detroit doesn't have to pay out the pensions it promised to people who worked for decades

Sorry kat330.
I missed your question until now.

I was a NYC delivery driver/walker.

I am very open as to what I will do, but I blasted my old employer with critiques after I left and am not getting a good recommendation when people call.

Tough shit.

Hi-Five Bliss! At my job (subcontracted through the gov't), they couldn't move any more money around, so, yesterday was my last day. However, there's an 80% chance they get the funding by the middle of January, so, I can start again, so, there's that.
