Some art to stand in the way of such terrible hatred.

Summer nights at Hill Fort.

Digging out an old "new project" to summon it back into being. Endeavoring to remember all the orbital intricacies I worked out last year, how an exoplanetary night sky changes through the seasons, and the years, and the decades, as two sister stars continue to dance.

Anyone interested in more HDP adventures?

No zooming! There be spoilers.

Happy one-year anniversary to The Human Dispersal Project! It's hard to believe a whole year has flown by since its launch, and it's been truly moving to hear such good feedback on the book in that time. Reader comments have ranged from, "It's honestly one of my all-time favorite books," to "I didn't want it to end," to "I could have done without all those afterwords," to "The afterwords were my favorite part!"

A year later, however, there are still quite a few author copies l̵a̵n̵g̵u̵i̵s̵h̵i̵n̵g̵ relaxing on this shelf. (Same goes for its predecessor, if you're in the mood for some soul-searching fantasy.) Instead, they could be signed, sealed, and sent to you. Get yours here...

Free shipping on signed author copies for list price = a pretty good deal. Beaver not for sale.

Heading into my 20th consecutive RPM Challenge (rpmchallenge.com). I can't believe the double-decade year is finally here.

First day of the month and you have no idea what you'll create? No problem: get organized!

Before (actually "During") and After a massive (and very badly needed) studio cleanse and reorganization yesterday. These pics do not remotely convey the chaos of the Before, the far worse chaos of the Transition state, and the improvement of the After. Not pictured are the mountains of twelve years of "stuff" that would avalanche out of the cabinets upon opening, and the austere organization post-purge. Still a bit of organizing and set-up to do before it's totally ready to rock, but we're getting there. Not a measure of music has happened, but at least I'm feeling far more ready for it.

A fitting room name for an impromptu stay in Portland. Here's to the stars....

A longstanding dream became a reality tonight, on a visit to the hallowed halls of National Freedom.

It would take far more than this post to explain how much the music made in this place has meant to me (cough: and ). It was an indescribable joy to finally be there in the flesh, to hear those echoes still bouncing off the walls.

Many thanks to for a truly epic set. Check out his music -- I'm certainly glad I found it. The perfect vibe for a special place.

Even more thanks to and for the warm hospitality.

To answer the most pressing reader question: Yes, goats are on the PODS -- but only as zygotes!
