A work mix/master of some 2024 riff rock with 2 old friends, David Nielsen and David S. Taylor Not sure what will come of this, but at least it’s some new rock and roll for 2024. Around 1980 a 4 piece rose from it’s parent band, including Doug Womack, Mike Etchison, and David Neilsen. Mike […]

Fathom first appeared on “Words” in 2022. It was the last completed song, I perhaps rushed it a bit as well as aiming higher than my comfort zone.

I’ve been interested in the viability, and potential benifits of printing on uncoated fine art papers even before inkjet when I saw some early Iris photography prints, and even earlier, when I first saw a platinum print at George Eastman House long ago, eventually dipping my toe into historical processes. I’ve written about this before, […]
