Standard Meter Bar

This is a, if not the, standard meter bar, at the Musée des Arts et Métiers in Paris. Looks like it's a meter long to me.

A. J. Liebling Obituary from the NY Times (Sunday, December 29, 1963)

I love it when you buy a used book and find a newspaper clipping left in it by the previous owner. This was in a used copy of Liebling's Normandy Revisited.

Quoting Myself

"It would be too strong to say that the one sound a recording cannot represent is the characteristic sound of that sort of recording being played, but it’s not far from the truth." (Unpublished manuscript, 2010)

New Office Additions

Two new additions to my office:

Top: a TASCAM DAT recorder. Got it free on Craigslist, from a guy who is renovating his post-production facility in Tribeca. There's also a Serato box hiding behind the DAT recorder, that I got used on eBay.

Bottom: a Doug Hansen watercolor from 2005, of the original WAND pressing of "Louie, Louie" being played on a portable Columbia record player. This was a gift from Nat & Melody.

FLW Hotel
