living room piano number one yup !

if you scroll alll the way back on the list of all pages, the oldest one is "my bass guitar," dated 5/4/24; followed by the first post on this blog, dated 5/10/24. so im gonna go out on a limb and say it's the website's birthday. happy birthday, website!

like, things that are emergent. things that emerge(d). anyway i wanted to do a whole blog post instead of just updating the now page !

its like, if a website was a chair, and metalsmith was all the tools in a woodshop but in boxes and a big empty room, rhodochrosite is a woodshop thats all set up and arranged, and also theres some new homemade tools in there. so what is it?

ok no this does need its own project page. and here we are !

what is this post even. its scattered to the four freakin winds in my head. i had this idea slow-cooking that this entry was going to be titled audhd, and somehow address and update the #adhd tag in a way that gestures toward my broad and hand-wavy use of…

without further ado, heres the next one!

i went back in there today and yesterday and was working on this overcomplicated thing in alternating 7/8 and 7/4 (i do love to go "big seven little seven") but my heart was really thinking about doing this, putting vocals on one of them. the one i chose…

these are the first couple sketches that led me to start this project log!

theres a couple little new bits of writing scattered around here since the last entry, so i thought id post a low key little #update. life has been very active and in a state of transformation lately, so i haven't been in as much of a blogging mindset - b…

i like just wrote "shifting hallways of the mind palace" in tags and i think thats kind of cool. grouping the same material in multiple ways kind of gives a 4-d effect - like, this is part of why i've never really been satisfied with mind maps or things t…
