Boxes, boxes and more boxes

November 14th, 2005 by xavier

The beauty of compressing your life and then unpacking it again comes from the re-discovery. Minutiae and their entangled memories. I uncovered several old mixes, especially some decaying 120min cassettes from the eighties… which I hope to reconstruct, considering how inspired they were and are in retrospect. But today I post a mix from 2001. Dig!

In absentia

November 4th, 2005 by xavier

My apologies, sincere and profound… the move to the new space has proven to be quite an undertaking, especially since I am an archivist [read: pack-rat]. The only access to the puter-thingy is at the office, and until such time as I am unencumbered by a labyrinth of boxes that hold my puter-thingy, I will be out of the loop.
