I am starting to review the book "Gandhi An Autobiography: The Story of My Experiments With Truth" the whole thing is very disjoint at times. How did you think to call your ferret Gandhi?

Michelangelo’s statue of Moses in the Church of San Pietro in Vincoli, Rome, is one of the most familiar masterpieces in the world. Horns the sculptor included on Moses' head are the result of a mistranslation of the Hebrew Bible into the Latin Vulgate Bible with which he was familiar. The Hebrew word taken from Exodus means either a "horn" or an "irradiation." Experts at the Archaeological Institute of America show that the term was used when Moses "returned to his people after seeing as much of the Glory of the Lord as human eye could stand," and his face "reflected radiance." In early Jewish art, moreover, Moses is often "shown with rays coming out of his head."
by gosh, is...is this a real piano?
beautiful sound. slightly out of tune or something, it's eerie, nostalgic and dangerously large.
keep on doing what you're doing.
This is a solo piano piece performed on a M-Audio 88es driving pianoteq which was re-tuned to Gene Ward Smith's 17 per octave equal beating dwarf(<17 27 40|). The piece was originally recorded in pianoteq using the standalone mode and then…

She's starting to write her own stuff (proud!) but just to get her in the studio for the first time, here is a cover of a song by Vance Joy.
the first Acid pro 10 stuff where I rework a recent work using the stretch effect and algorithms
this is the original work here

this is the selection that resulted in stretching, in high resolution…
I put together a patch of 6 oscillators using frequencies 198, 210, 220, 228, 230 and 280. I recorded the piece interactively playing as I felt them by triggering. A previously recorded loop often playing in reverse was also used. Produced…
starts out with a hint of Ludwig and becomes full on contemporary classical. Really like the quiet part at ~2 with the sustain pedal down. I don't know why - 3:18 started to echo Gershwin for me though it really doesn't sound like his style. Overall its a really nice piece with a multifaceted set of moods and thoughts - I enjoyed this very much!
This is really an intriguing piece as the song writing is somewhat Beatlesque with a totally modern sound. I love this even more than the previous view into this piece.

Mindbending.
Man this is genius! Wow the atmosphere and all the other elements are are blended in perfectly with the bile lyrics! Kudos!
WOW! Impressive piece of work that is!
Mighty and magical!
man, what a powerful sound. Cant help but think of Jim Morrison a bit with the lyric inflections.
such a powerful sound, I really like this.

I sat back in my chair and listened with an air of quiet satisfaction...this was absolutely lovely.
Excellent alt tuning. Wide open and sometimes odd sound scape, Beautiful
Too short, yet so beautiful!
Nice improve!

Crunchy! Bravo!
Excellent!
adorable...
Lovely hearing the jazzier chords on an acoustic.
*explodes with cute*
Gentle, lovely, and very welcome. Like a sweet cuppa rosie.
What Kavin said- Lovely! Sweet tone from that Seagull

enjoyed!
Nice sample! You gotta put it in a tune!
This is great!
great performance!
I like this one a great deal. The sections are more defined than usual And I like the character of each. I too listened several times.
Cool sounding!
amazing work!
really good composition with excellent production. I heard sounds coming from beyond my monitors - phase shifting?
great music, it is like a speech. Prodding, pleading, shouting.
nice vamp!
Such a huge expanse is painted here!
A cool microtonal experimental piece!
This is beautiful!
