Wake County Public Library Booksale
The Wake County Library Booksale starts tomorrow. Whenever I go, it always fascinates me just how many copies of
“Futureshock” the library seems to have. It seems to be about every 20th book on the tables.
Maybe I’ll wait till the last day, and then buy up a couple boxes full of “Futureshock”. And then sneak them back
into the library during the year.
I want a IMDB style database about cars/motorcycles. If one doesn’t exist, someone
should build one.
I think I want a Ducati Hypermotard for Christmas.

Not a bad weekend. Couple gatherings. “Everyday is Halloween” at badgers, including way more food than can be consumed.
Tried a new setup sunday over at badgers. More of a keyboad/softsynth thing. Basic idea is two keyboards and two soft synths, and some basic external post processing and looping. Hardware end seems okay, but not surprisingly, the software was more troubleprone.
I tried hosting two Reaktor softsynths in Cubase and setting up the routing I wanted, but it didn’t seem to want to cooperate. Then tried it in a demo version of Ableton Live, which seemed to work a little better, but eventually crashed as well. Need to figure out whats most stable before the show on Friday. But the demo version doesn’t allow you to save any configs, which is annoying, and the full fledged version is a bit pricy. Are there any good reasonably prices VSTi hosts for osx that won’t crash?
Went to the Laurie Anderson show afterwards. Pretty cool. Had an interesting coincidence. Discussed Project A119 on the trip over, which was then referenced in the show. A119 was a plan to detonate a atomic bomb on the moon. Apparently Robert McNamara mentions this in Fog Of War.

I will be joining Subscape Annex for this show.
Any digg or del.icio.us users out there?
If so, digg me. Or, er, del.icio.us me?
Having gone though most of a Mechanical Engineering course, one thing you heard over and over were descriptions of famous disasters. Probably the most famous is the Tacomas
Narrows Bridge. Today marks 65 years since it’s collapse.
The other two examples that were constantly used includes the Kansas City Hyatt Regency and the Challenger explosion.
