I would be quite curious to hear that piece.

Weekend Cat Blogging #290
December 25 (Christmas) is a completely free day us.
After a season (and indeed, a year) that has been exceptionally hectic even by my own standards, such emptiness can be a bit jarring. One could catch up on the myriad creative projects and practical items that have been languishing, or just relax. Luna on the other hand has no problem with this whatsoever.
This is yet another lesson we should learn from our animal friends.
I would go for a walk downtown or along the highway structures, but with the blustery wind and stormy skies outside, it seems best to stay inside this morning with a warm cup of of coffee and a cat. It also seems like a good morning for some 1950s/1960s minor-key jazz (actually, a lot of mornings are good for that). Just imagine The Dave Brubeck Quartet’s Take Five or John Coltrane’s Equinox in the background with the pictures of Luna and you can glimpse Christmas morning at CatSynth HQ.
Weekend Cat Blogging #290, Holiday Edition is hosted by Jules and Vincent at Judi’s Mind Over Matter.
The Carnival of the Cats will be hosted tomorrow by Nikita Cat.
The Friday Ark is on hiatus for the holidays.

I believe the keyboard is a Yamaha CP-33.

Via matrixsynth, where you can see more photos:
Also, check out recoilsun’s bandcamp, featuring music with this Buchla setup. Interesting and meditative. Not sure if the cat assisted.

Weekend Cat Blogging #288: Saturation
We at CatSynth are feeling pretty saturated this weekend, particularly with music and social events. But that doesn’t stop us from posting some recent unsaturated images of Luna:
Probably not the best pictures from a technical point of view (they were taken with odd lighting and at high ISO, the “setting of last resort”). But they still seem precious in their way.
Weekend Cat Blogging #288 is to be hosted by Salome at PaulChens FoodBlog?!
The Carnival of the Cats will be up this Sunday at Mind of Mog.
And the Friday Ark is at the modulator
