Past Week at Twitter.com/Disquiet

February 10 is the birthday of both @carlstone and @robert_henke. I think this should be some sort of electronic holiday. ->



Not that anyone should look at a screen on a beautiful San Francisco day such as this, but who are Richmond District tweeters I should know? ->



Kinda missed Dilla Day due to tending to my then-semi-ailing kid, but by chance had listened to Dilla anyhow. Kids like Donuts. ->



Is there any way to get iBooks-style continuous scrolling in FBReader? ->



How perfect that the first entry in our remix project of Endless Ascent netlabel is, per chance, by @Icarus_Descent: http://t.co/lSzme8ob ->



"Aardvark—Fiction." #loc ->



Visual remnant of what Chinese New Year sounded like: http://t.co/FJCtr51p ->



Impromptu Craigslist road trip. Crate digging. http://t.co/99YiJfBB ->



I already miss looking forward to Steven Soderbergh films. ->



Scored four 12"s at Craigslist crate dig: Art of Noise's Gunn, Ice T's Rich & Famous, INXS' What You Need, Geto Boys' Mind Playing Tricks. ->



Thank you for making my week. RT @PennSound: Christian Hawkey took silences from 45 readings by Ashbery on PennSound: http://t.co/0VWV4mzZ ->



Audio recording I made today during Chinese New Year celebrations in the Tenderloin: https://t.co/eOzlnkGy ->



Realized that old Ice-T 12" I snagged today of "Lifestyles of the Rich and Infamous" isn't the original but, better yet, a DJ Premier remix. ->



Mostly for @robsheff @christianbok @tomcomitta: The silences of John Ashbery. What the poet says when he says nothing: http://t.co/uvkXdEgV ->



Afternoon score on day I watch my 2.5-year-old: foreground is toddler's light snoring; background is neighbor's leaf blower. ->



Almost 20 tracks reworking various releases from the Endless Ascent netlabel: https://t.co/GJH0W5sv Cc @djunto ->



Thanks! MT @SoundCloud: @djunto is an open communal soundmaking group. Hear latest project celebrating Creative Commons http://t.co/yilizcp9 ->



Dear Anyone: I rarely tweet health whines but my poor little kid's pink eye is the primary reason I haven't replied to your email/post/tweet ->



Arnold Lobel's kids book Frog & Toad Are Friends works well with Frog in John Cage's voice & Toad in Morton Feldman's. #noiseparent #protip ->



Not surprised that Kraftwerk bio author pops up on a Resonance FM podcast. Just surprised it was on the cycling show: http://t.co/DaVsVZJ3 ->



Sound of the library where I'm getting some work done: https://t.co/w3J0jEf9 ->



Even more addicted to Thomas Newman's Side Effects score than I'd expected to be. "Houston Free Meds" in particular. ->



Side Effects reminds me of first time I took note of Thomas Newman's name, due to percussive classical performance in movie Men Don't Leave. ->



Not into reality TV but would watch doc about Android/Apple fanboys who battle in blog comments. Inconvenient Troll? Troll to the Dark Side? ->



Caleb Kelly (aka @caleb_k), author of Cracked Media: The Sound of Malfunction, has a new blog: http://t.co/DNACA4LF. ->



Theme of this week's Disquiet Junto (@djunto) project is sonic autobiography. Starts Thursday. It's #59 in the ongoing series. ->



4 hours ago I posted the sound of a room where I sat alone in the library: https://t.co/w3J0jEf9. 120 listens later, I sure feel less alone. ->



Ooh, a remix (by @happypuppyrecs) of my library HVAC drone recording: https://t.co/wPN4gtp3. #dronesofdrones ->



My Nexus 4 hasn't gotten 4.2.2 yet, no. Thanks for askin'. ->



Reading story collections by Paolo Bacigalupi and Kelly Link. Beautiful, but so florid I may read a catalog about concrete when I'm done. ->



2nd class today of my weekly @academy_of_art sound course: dead celebrities, oral history, audio ecology, listening exercise, synesthesia ->



Information flows through this: http://t.co/N6Bh8JXx ->



The autobiography @djunto project has been delayed a week. This week's involves the human voice and requires a die (i.e., singular of dice). ->



Paolo Bacigalupi's short story “The People of Sand and Slag" is not something you want to have finished reading just before lunch. ->



Same thing's happening now with Stonesthrow as with Touch Radio, where the podcast shows on RSS before the web page. Weird. ->



Google's TTS (text to speech) is radically reducing my mobile music intake in favor of blog posts and ebooks. ->



I didn't post special Valentine's Day music on Disquiet (.com) today. I just, as always, posted music that I love. ->



The 59th Disquiet Junto (@djunto) project begins momentarily. It requires a single die and your mouth. ->



The 59th @djunto project is now live at http://t.co/a4zJ5Mlw + http://t.co/XdREURGZ #vowels #choral #drone #random #dice ->



Excellent. Got access to my Twitter archive. Looking forward to digging in. Cc @lhalff ->



"Reading the Settings options." 19 Jun 07 #twitterarchive #firsttweet ->



"The air conditioning has stopped. All the better to hear my hard drive whir." 21 Jun 07 #twitterarchive ->



I have mentioned HVAC 31 times (well, now 31) on Twitter. #twitterarchive ->



I have mentioned Pink Floyd five times and pink eye once since joining Twitter. #twitterarchive ->



Based on this graph 2010 is the year I really got underway on Twitter though I joined back in mid-2007. http://t.co/lday3jRD ->



I was on Twitter 339 days before using the word "ambient." #twitterarchive ->



I was on Twitter 109 days before using the word "noise." #twitterarchive ->



Greene on Zero Hour, Carter on Falling Skies, Corday on Dr. Who and Arrow. How did ER take over TV science fiction? ->



Was reading about "secure USB debugging" in Android 4.2.2. Does this conflict at all with @idisplayapp's USB connect? http://t.co/4YkA5rgV ->



Ooh, already a work in this week's "choral drones from vowels" @djunto project: https://t.co/rXhRUfyq by @xyzr_kx ->



We should approximate holding "yay," "die." MT @Nonwrestler: @disquiet 2 dipthongs there (A, I); physically impossible to hold as "constant" ->



Current choral drone @djunto project has been, inevitably, picked up by one of those automated paper.li news aggregators on military drones. ->



Useful reminder about how to type "smart" quotes in OS X: http://t.co/5VscWMpa ->



"It’s hard to hear the words over the noise of weapons, vehicles and Marco Beltrami’s bludgeoning score" (A.O. Scott on the new Die Hard.) ->



Beautiful. MT @echosonic: New for @djunto: Miroitant de l'eau [disquiet0059-vwls] by @echosonic via @soundcloud https://t.co/Ezqz6oAh ->



Apparently "watermarked" means "so complicated to download that you never actually get to listen to it." ->



Someone will assign Jonathan Lethem to review the new Glenn Frankel book on The Searchers, right? ->
