His activities include futurist&lt;br /&gt;pop, radio plays, electroacoustic, and works for chamber orchestra.&lt;br /&gt;In 1998, he founded Gagarin Records. Kubin's music is saturated by&lt;br /&gt;enthusiasm for disharmonic pop, industrial noise, and 20th-century&lt;br /&gt;avant-garde music. In the last 20 years he has released a large&lt;br /&gt;number of diverse albums and played over 70 electronic music festivals.&lt;br /&gt;One of electronic music's most dynamic performers, he likes to move&lt;br /&gt;between high and low culture, clubs and concert halls, as his main&lt;br /&gt;concern is the shifting of contexts and expectations.&lt;br /&gt;http://www.felixkubin.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bevin Kelley (BLEVIN BLECTUM) is an electronic musician and multimedia&lt;br /&gt;composer. Her performances are often loose narratives incorporating&lt;br /&gt;live interactive electronic sound, manipulated field recordings,&lt;br /&gt;film, action and costume. She holds degrees in English, Violin&lt;br /&gt;Performance, Electronic Music and Recording Media, and Veterinary&lt;br /&gt;Nursing. She has released four solo albums, and many more in&lt;br /&gt;collaboration with other musicians and filmmakers. Bevin is one half&lt;br /&gt;of the sonic/stage duo Blectum From Blechdom, recipients of the&lt;br /&gt;2001 Ars Electronica Award of Distinction in Digital Music. She&lt;br /&gt;was one fourth of the audio/visual band Sagan. Her multimedia work&lt;br /&gt;is often text-based, including a series of pieces based on Philip&lt;br /&gt;K.

A time of reflection as all yearly passings are.  The quiet semblance of clear landscapes.  I strive for space and silence.  Bathed in sunlight.  An assessment and a drive forward into the future.  I hope things will be better for all parties involved.  That we could grow in a productive manner.  I have so many books to read here.  The main objective is to repair the damage and rebuild oneself as best possible.  "when you pass so close to me to hold my emotions..."  Another breath, another step forward.

What have I learned so far?  Where am I going?  (I feel like Gauguin for a moment there- asking questions that are impossible to answer)  From this life to another passing through time looking back on all that came before.  Another quick scan, another place to be thankful for.  I had one of the most exciting and somewhat heartbreaking summers in a long time.  This is good.  It is an adventure I want to continue.  I’ve been focusing on those moments lately where one says goodbye.  That past reflection when she left – it doesn’t matter who or when its just the few second of total disconnect replayed in my mind over and over.  The chemical rush of excitement as I was confident and full of hope and not worried and waiting rest assured it would all continue the “o I should mention this but it can wait because I will certainly see you again soon”.  Only to have those hopes crushed on the rocks and washed away in to the ocean of time.  Or something like that emerged the next moment being cut off without equivocation. Perhaps it was the age, conflicting interests, divided loyalties, overcome by pursuit...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4VTk-puyfbU&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4VTk-puyfbU&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x2b405b&amp;color2=0x6b8ab6" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11171804-4777156415837449644?l=obscurecities.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://obscurecities.blogspot.com/feeds/4777156415837449644/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11171804&amp;postID=4777156415837449644' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11171804/posts/default/4777156415837449644'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11171804/posts/default/4777156415837449644'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://obscurecities.blogspot.com/2009/11/three-days-left.html' title='Three Days Left.'/><author><name>George</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11007057395447442920</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09070189783734221664'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11171804.post-1973440177590573133</id><published>2009-11-04T16:49:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-04T16:50:03.121-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='radio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wzbc'/><title type='text'>That description</title><content type='html'>FRIDAY: NCP I – “Off the Cuff” with George – An investigation into the anxiety created by the pressures and loneliness of modern life.

Then again, perhaps not my mind is consumed by the presence of memory.  I feel locked in this stasis trying to comprehend past events.  What could have led to this?  Why am i so vulnerable now?  Why do I long so much for ... the promise of a few more moments.  Its difficult to keep drifting with no actual knowledge of what lies ahead.  My life is "spun out of control", or it has run away with my ---- never to bring it back.  Day to day advice helps, words that bring me back into the picture, that bring me hope.  I don't know if I regret anything or its just a failure to understand what happened.  Again, if I cannot communicate clearly how can I possibly comprehend past events?  I move around for awhile asking myself the same questions.  Hoping for closure or the promise of a new beginning.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11171804-7719149407686159051?l=obscurecities.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://obscurecities.blogspot.com/feeds/7719149407686159051/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11171804&amp;postID=7719149407686159051' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11171804/posts/default/7719149407686159051'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11171804/posts/default/7719149407686159051'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://obscurecities.blogspot.com/2009/11/another-setting.html' title='Another Setting'/><author><name>George</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11007057395447442920</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09070189783734221664'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_jtbbgorgY_4/SvGsTyEi9nI/AAAAAAAAAKo/58BpWQGymOM/s72-c/fact74_350.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11171804.post-3058094328194640604</id><published>2009-11-02T15:08:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-02T15:09:02.644-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='coldcut'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='music'/><title type='text'>Coldcut - Autumn Leaves</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8pMClp0k5JY&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8pMClp0k5JY&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11171804-3058094328194640604?l=obscurecities.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://obscurecities.blogspot.com/feeds/3058094328194640604/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11171804&amp;postID=3058094328194640604' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11171804/posts/default/3058094328194640604'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/11171804/posts/default/3058094328194640604'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://obscurecities.blogspot.com/2009/11/coldcut-autumn-leaves.html' title='Coldcut - Autumn Leaves'/><author><name>George</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11007057395447442920</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09070189783734221664'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11171804.post-3115422913628044107</id><published>2009-10-28T16:35:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-29T11:34:51.844-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='personal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='journal'/><title type='text'>i'm glad i made you cry</title><content type='html'>a matter came up today - something i hadn't thought about in a long time:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;me:  somewhere indeed&lt;br /&gt;i think its good for people to learn lessons or at least trip and fall down - realize they aren't the only people in the world&lt;br /&gt; l:  a very important lesson good for character&lt;br /&gt; me:  right&lt;br /&gt; l:  to be truly humble rather than appear to be&lt;br /&gt; me:  like when i rode my bike to visit this girl across town and got lost in the woods and was alone all alone and had to figure out how to get back home and climbed a fence with my bike on my back and ripped my jeans a little&lt;br /&gt;rough times&lt;br /&gt;when i was 15&lt;br /&gt; l:  yes! a very sweet story&lt;br /&gt; me:  ha i shouldn't have seen her she had the flu&lt;br /&gt; l:  oh no! but fun yes?&lt;br /&gt; me:  it was an adventure&lt;br /&gt;the full spectrum of human emotion&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps its cyclical.  Something I hadn't thought about in a long time, moments from when I was someone else, a different human being.  Different than today.  The dreams of a man who could do just about anything, who would overcome any barrier to get what he wanted.  A man driven by hope and desire.  Someone who took life too seriously, who saw everything as connected and acknowledged to his way of being.  I don't think the motivations were entirely selfish, the man was just consumed with curiosity and the taste for knowledge.  Such things always hurt in the end.&lt;br /&gt;At every turn I am told I take things too seriously or am too hard on myself.  These days I can't tell whether that's true or what i feel is just my body reacting to other forces (other voices, other rooms).
