NIGHTlinkRail (dot.com).
The NightLinkRail model is really about the generation and spreading of ideas via the web. It’s a numbers game. The bigger it gets, the more plausible it looks; and the more people who see it, the more people will hopefully talk about it… “Hey, I’ve just seen the craziest thing…It’s just too deep to be […]
NIGHTlinkRail (too).
The real beef is this – because I keep on asking myself, “How might we view Situationism as most truly relevant today, when we are becoming further immune to Guy Debord’s definition of a society deceived by spectacle? His later admonitions had more to do with a full, but depressed appreciation for how society appears […]
NIGHTlinkRail : Are you commuter literate?
NIGHTlinkRail, an experimental sitework launched in 1997 by DayForNight.com, is a network composed of 100 individual train stations. It parallels the online catalogue of the Day For Night musical imprint, in the form of a series of Railway Stations along what I’ve been referring to as “An Internet Journey-By-Rail.” After descending via escalator into the […]

Let's create what we prefer.
It’s an amazing world, and let’s do that; create what we prefer. Let us always create what we prefer. Let us create something of our own choosing, and allow ourselves the space around that creation, to become a “breathing zone”, for what we choose for ourselves. To support our higher selves — our truest version […]
My reality.
(Even more than sex…) I fantasize about a tolerant, patient, open-minded society which can handle revolution and rejects the musical spectacle
A hierarchy for creating results.
Why is it important that others align with their higher self, to find this understanding? The goal of all life is, ultimately, to create happiness by meeting all the needs for survival, followed by the needs that lead to self actualization. Maslow identifies this with his hierarchy of needs, which ascends in 5 levels (physiological, […]
Mind the gap.
She/He may be limited… in space… in experience… in money… in patience… in food… in sexual knowledge… in out of body experience… in good life experience… in bad times… she or he may be limited in time.
Sorting.
I ended up realizing a production goal that year. I digitized and organized my entire back catalogue that year, beginning with those tapes, and including all my 4-tracks, work tapes, DATs, Sound FX, Loops and Samples. Recording became an activity organized from a single hard drive, and with an incremental back up process takign place […]
Phasing.
This work was produced using two hand-held recorders. The difference in timing is accounted for by the variations in playback speeds on the individual recorders, when the two recordings are laid side by side. Additional variations were produced by varying the speaker’s location in relation to the two recorders.
