    I'd place cash on everyone already having caught that you have trust issues.

    I was about to say the same.
    Also, the transfer was strange. Basically, the download speed kept increasing until it overshot my limit and the download would failed; you can restart the download without penalty, which I did, but it did the same thing over and over. Odd, but I did manage to grab it.

    I decided to give it a go anyway. I'd like to add my voice, but right now I can't....

    Safe for sure. The server is in a secret underwater cave someplace on the coast of Mallorca, guarded by a pod of Orca and loyal Audiosex mercenaries trained personally by @Xupito (what is known of him here only skims the surface, his shit runs deep, deep, deep). Darth Fader, when not working as a physician for Doctors Without Borders codes unbreakable encryption to pass audio files to compatriots around the world. His stuff is safer than Fort Knox.

    That shit's clearly not too secret if you're just dropping its general location on AS now, is it? Thanks to your flippant disregard for discretion, I scouted the area and managed to snap a photo of one the orcas with its handler. Xup isn't gonna be happy with your leak...

    And for the record, @Lois Lane —yes, yes you are allowed. Don't let that purple orangutan guy tell you any different.

    My six? If you're talking bout my ass, the ladies tell me it ranks closer to an eight or a nine.
    You don't have to agree, you just have to recognize. :chilling:

    @Lois Lane ~ In the same vein as this contest.
    Willie Green is probably most known for working with The Roots and Billy Woods.
    You can find this album on Bandcamp, with a portion of the tracks open to listen to.

    Thanks @eXACT_Beats_ for that video. I'm not so sure that I grok Green's analogy of a visual collage in any linear relationship to an audio collage by using the software he shows to make what to my ear is sculpted noise, but his creative use of the software to craft the desire of his imagination is admirable.

    The process isn't a one-to-one or anything, just an interesting interaction of mediums and technology.
    Images have always been inspiration for me; it's just as common for me to see an image and have it spark a musical idea as it is for me to hear something and flip it, or build something from another element. It's always refreshing to build based off of something that wasn't birthed in my tattered-ass skull-soup, and I think a lot of people feel that way, especially since the twenties are seeing so many people are working in solitary—for a time out of necessity—creating solo works in the box without anyone else to consistently bounce ideas off or collaborate with.
    I thought he found a cool way to drag himself outside his comfort zone and into a place of forced creativity.

    I too find that an image can whet the appetite of my creativity. A picture can act on me like tea leaves foretelling the future of a song. Swirl them around in my mind and pour out the tea, and what is left is hopefully my fortune.
