I did not practice hours a day for eighteen years to have my success attributed to a myth.

“I despise modern music. Words cannot express how much it gets on my nerves – the false, pretentious, smug assertiveness of it. I hate business, having to deal with money. Money is one of the most hateful inventions of the human race. I hate the commodity culture, in which everything is bought and sold. No stone is left unturned. I hate the mass media, and how passively people suck up to it.” — R. Crumb
Hey, remember when you asked me to make that 3 hour version of “Video Games” by Lana Del Rey, played really slow? Jupiter Mission

WATCH THIS! This is a modified record player made by Bartholomaus Traubeck that actually reads the year-rings of the cross section of a tree and translates that into music. I can hardly think of anything more beautiful than the thought of trees spending their whole lives composing these pieces of music. Just patiently waiting for some one to hear it.

life:
On this day in 1877, Thomas Edison announces his invention of the phonograph.
Ever since Thomas Edison (pictured) created the phonograph after five days and nights hooking up his ears to rubber tubes, the world’s been grooving to the oldies thanks to the miracle of recorded music. But way before there was ever anything remotely resembling an iPod, listening to a particular recording meant listening to a victrola, gramophone, or phonograph, which could sound awfully staticky to our MP3-spoiled ears.
Still, there’s no reason not to break out the old LPs every once in a while and crank up that old-timey music!
