		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s been a while since I visited the local flea market mall. There are hundreds of stalls. People load each one up with whatever they are trying to sell. It&#039;s immensely absorbing. Recently I found a small open reel tape recorder, with two reels of tape! It was fifteen bucks, and it works, too.

		<description><![CDATA[Some years ago (many years ago) I found someone selling an Estey Style T reed organ. The Style T was the largest Estey made commercially. It has two 61 note manuals and a 30 note pedal board. It has ten ranks of reeds; four each on the great and swell and two in the pedal. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today of all days, I am exploring techniques for restoration of old tape recordings. In a very old box of open reel tapes, I found one completely unlabeled tape. It contains a recording of an LP. The tape is half-track, mono. One side is one LP and the other is another. In any case, this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[People have been experimenting with computers as creators of music for, what, half a century now? Even so, I think the field is still in its infancy. Music combines all of what makes us human, and computers, so far, are not that great at being human.
About three years ago, I found an application called Pure [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I never know when or where I&#039;ll be surprised by some new sound, yet it almost always is a surprise. It happened again while attending to some seasonal errands at the nearby craft store. This time it was a package of 50 or so medium size jingle bells. They were packed pretty tightly, and didn&#039;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I went on vacation in 2009, I took with me not only recording gear, but lots of radios, too. I enjoy vacationing in places that are far from any sizable human habitation. This is due partially to my tendency to be a hermit. It is also because I really enjoy short wave listening.
And so [...]]]></description>

I often watch a show on Ovation called Iconoclasts. The show takes two well-known people and lets them interact. Once the had Maya Angelou and Dave Chappelle. It was beautiful to watch. Ms. Angelou said: &#034;I believe words are things, and I live on [...]]]></description>
