aurora dorey alice...

aurora dorey alice. aurora, colorado. the first one makes makes me really happy, the other doesn't. 
i prefer to be happy, and stay that way. 

dorey is rad, and her approach to sound-making is very quite taser.
she performed at an art event i was a part of in bloomington, indiana. it was terrific to see this action again. 

we also share a birthday every year.

love them, don't shoot them...?

i saw this poster while riding the train a few days ago. it seems to be a product of the lapd, which encourages people to NOT fire their guns in the air on new years. it was really hard for me to imagine that this issue was so widespread and popular in practice to warrant a public poster.however, when the clock struck midnite, i was quickly convinced. from all over the city i could hear a thunderous mix of fireworks and gun shots. and yes, i can tell the difference between a bunch of firecrackers and a semi-automatic 9mm... someone in my apt. complex actually shot their gun right outside the building! pow! and i was like "what the fuck!"i had never thought of doing this. it seems like a great idea. maybe next year.
