Anyone who’s heard or read the news recently knows of the catastrophic earthquake that hit Haiti on Tuesday, January 12. The death toll and devastation is massive. Here’s a Haitian relief effort that you may be interested in joining, organized by Tuscon-based artist Glenn Weyant.
I will be a guest on ITDE hosted by DaveX on WDBX 91.1FM.

Something Else is Chicago’s longest running radio show devoted to seldom-heard and experimental, avant-garde musics, sound art, works of long duration (no excerpts!), and other less classifiable things that just don’t have an outlet. Chicago Phonography is a collective of artists interested in promoting creative activity in listening by broadcasting unprocessed field recordings as an ensemble in a context of live improvisation.
Recently, I started using AudioBoo and found it to be a fun social media “play thing” for posting field recordings. One interesting feature with potential for serious use is AudBoo’s ability to create a podcast in the iTunes Music Store. There you can download to the files or “boos” as well as subscribe to the podcast. You can tag your boos, search boos. This is the link for my AudioBoo. As in Twitter you can follow the profiles. You can also subscribe to everyone’s AudioBoos on the iTunes AudioBoos full podcast.
Nic Collins just informed me that my 2007 article, about my Springboard and piezo contact mics, has topped the list of Leonardo Music Journals “Most Downloaded Articles”.
