all the time in the world

Counterpoint punches me in the arm and I'm back on the air, somewhere, stuck in traffic, slumped low in my bucket seat, and there's static on the radio. A signal is trying to get through, but all I get is partial syllables of someone speaking

heyyy, welcome back! i was just thinking the other day, "MAN, WHAT'S UP WITH MATTHEW."

that is a neat installation D: are those wires for light or data or anything?

Nawp, see the piano is hooked up to junk all over the building. For example, one key will power a motor that vibrates a rafter, another pumps air to blow through a pipe in the wall, another makes a doohickey whang against a nearby radiator, etc etc. (I suspect David Byrne would be proud of this description.) Pretty cool!

PROUD MOMENT. I put on my Sophisticated voice while waiting in line (just a Thurston Howell III impression) and said "Well this really transforms the piano into a percussion instrument, doesn't it?" and the people in front of us said "Ahhhh," "Mmm," and "Why, yes!"

Aren't pianos already percussion instruments, what with the hammers whacking the strings?

Yeah man probably! I don't know. It was just something I said while viewing Art, so of course it was bullshit. I was just proud that folks surrounding me bought it.

ALSO how've you been!
