  • Happy Gotcha Day, Luna!

    Happy Gotcha Day, Luna!

    Today, June 10, is the eighth anniversary of Luna’s adoption, otherwise known as her “gotcha day.” We woke up to find this wonderful graphic waiting at The Cat Blogosphere:

    After eight years, Luna continues to make every day a delight I certainly hope I do the same for her.

    We will celebrate this evening, but in the meantime, please join me in wishing Luna a Happy Gotcha Day!

  • Weekend Cat Blogging: Luna and the Blue Fish

    Luna still loves her blue fish toy. She carries it around like a teddy bear and cuddles with it. Here is a short video of her play with it – stick around for the end to hear her voice.

    If your cat has a favorite toy like, we’d love to hear about it.


    The Carnival of the Cats will be hosted by Ritzi at iInfidel.

    And the Friday Ark is at the modulator.

    “I wanted to upload a video with my serge and the cat was hanging out with me at the time.”

    “Schnuffi won’t let me patch my modular. And she relaxes on the 808…”

  • Weekend Cat Blogging with Luna: Modular Synth

    Luna and modular synth

    Luna sits down to relax near the modular synth. The purple Monorocket case is completely packed with modules and a mess of wires that are the result of improvised patching. Fortunately, Luna seems to show no interest in the wires, but is more focused on her toys, such as the blue fish (one of her favorites).

    The modular is currently set up in the living room for practicing ahead of my duo performance tomorrow night with David Samas. Apropos of Weekend Cat Blogging, the theme of the performance is leopard print. You can see a video of our past performance below and read more about it in this post.

    And the Friday Ark is at the modulator. Our modular synth contains modulators 🙂

  • CatSynth video: Engineer by Paul Hayworth

    Submitted by Paul Hayworth via our Facebook page.

    “My cat played all synths on this track and Catnip Marraccas.”

    Released 6.05.13 on electrocuted Wilma tunes. www.electrocuted.moonfruit.com www.paulhayworth.bandcamp.com Shot in Cambridgeshire, the worlds home of Genetic Engineering, the video explores the relationship between man, science and creation.

    Additional artwork from Addenbrookes Hospital, various research institutes, the very gothic looking Ely Cathedral and other religious artifacts, from the Genome project to the first cloned animals (and probably humans), Paul Hayworth takes a wild walk to the darker side of our future.

    Half pig, half human on a dark night in the earths history with a full moon blazing, maybe we will one day play God and start creating monsters of our own choosing. Mutants or genetically engineered beings will become reality and let loose on an unsuspecting world.

    It may very well have already happened!!!!

    “All sounds made with a microKORG, monotron DELAY, and my trusty domestic shorthair (special calico variant).”

    We are quite fond of the Monotron Delay, too.

  • Weekend Cat Blogging with Luna: Reading the Paper

    A typical weekend morning features coffee, the newspaper, and Luna. Here is what it often looks like from my perspective.

    Luna looks for attention while the author reads the newspaper

    Luna with New York Times (iPad)

    I don’t think Luna cares in particular about Senators McCain and Rubio, but she does like attention, especially when I am nearby but not paying attention to her. (One could probably say the same thing about the politicians featured in the news.)

    I have also grown quite accustomed to reading my newspaper on the iPad. A sign of the times.


    The Carnival of the Cats will be up this Sunday at the Tuxedo Gang Hideout

    And the Friday Ark is at the modulator.
