@owen Thanks, but for some reason I can’t get the audio to work at all. Show me in person in a couple of days.

Welcome back!

@owen Looks great—all that American food!

Thanks for sharing, Owen, your lectures on color. Have you studied the phenomenon of difference tones, ? It is well established that these resultant tones are subjectively created in the inner ear, making our ears themselves practically the only naturally occurring objects that can create the harmonic series, which you describe in your early lecture. Members of all cultures have the same ear structure, yet these colors do not form the basis of non-western music. Why do you suppose that it was “Western” music that uniquely developed the major/minor scheme?

Leo! OMG—good stuff!

Ooh, good!! I would suggest tweaking the balance. We’ll talk.

@owen I might weigh in about this latest song. I actually prefer the slower version because the sadness of the song seems more immediate than the fast version. Perhaps if you recorded it at a faster tempo the subtleties of your voice would come through more, but as of now, I vote for the slow one.

I just finished the final episode of The Mandalorian. This is really good stuff—the equal of or better than any of the Star Wars films. Good story line, excellent cinematic story-telling, character growth, great special effects, truly wonderful and compelling music. Plus a surprise at the very end.

@ChrisFerris @owen Beautiful, owen.

So excellent!

Nice looking pooch!

Tried bagels with yeast instead of sourdough. Easier, quicker, prettier. Tastes pretty good too.

@B @Baba Here’s odd. Your list shows up on my iPad and iPhone, but not on Baba’s phone, which is accessing my account. I truly fear the universe is out to get us.

@B @owen Thanks for the recommendation—it is fascinating.

@owen Bagel failure😂

@owen my starter is healthy and active, but the dough seems dead. We'll see how it looks tomorrow, and I can give it a couple more hours of proofing if needed. Will send update.

@owen He took the words right out of my mouth.

Owen, I’m going to attempt to bake sourdough bagels. How long do you boil them before baking?
