Typing in Safeway [text-audio experiment]
[CLICK HERE and open 3.8mb Quicktime File for accompanying audio, recorded live at Safeway just now.]
Writing in a pioneering Safeway "lifestyle" store at 10:34 pm, deciding that the future of the suburbs lies in our ability to explode the culture-creation potential of the omnipresent strip -- CAN YOU HEAR ME TYPING. A 30-something D&D dude shuffles past with his mini cart. The Perfect Voice Man advertises March as National Nutrition month. Holy shit! The D&D dork just approached me with a business card for some music downloading website, link here. Dude this is so post-modern, I am flipping out. So here's the idea for my new music/digiarts project: I go all around the strip -- to whole foods, barnes and noble, target, all of that, doing location recordings and writing about it at the same time, then YOU read these words AND hear that bullshit at the same time! Sound enticing? Sound compelling? Sound like I'm aping the marketing gab of those dudes in the PA above? Perhaps. Seacreast, out.
[Note: You can hear the actually here the convo with the D&D dude about halfway through the 4:00 track. Listen to me humor him, and then get all excited with the typing after he leaves.]

Why am I listening to this? Meetings at the Safeway about a music downloading site that's 'fucking new, man'. That is some excited typing.
Now with this comment, there's a record of my perspective reading your blog and then listening to you type in Safeway and talk to some dude. Crazy.
your sarcasm is duly noted. ;)
