	9:05pm Sarcofiguy: Smootches!
	9:05pm Aitch: Mutating quietly here in the corner
	9:06pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: In triplicate signed lost found buried in soft peat and recycled as firelighters
	9:07pm Charles: The whole fest was a lot of fun!
	👻 9:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Charles @9:07 I'm definately going to do this again next year, but with a little more planning. Gonna see if I can actually do a LIVE live episode; set up the gear on the patio, invite some bands over, etc.
	👻 9:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Sarcofiguy @9:05 We gotta make a silly short horror movie someday. I can only imagine the nonsense we could come up with.
	👻 9:10pm Austin Rich: There's no video content this week, but don't forget to check out the video performances and interviews over on our video playlist: bit.ly/MUTATIONVIDEOFEST
	9:11pm Sarcofiguy: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 🤣😍 I'd love to concoct that somehow!
	9:12pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:09 A horror movie based on Me Tie Doughty Walker perhaps? Maybe a proper anthology based on Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.
	👻 9:12pm Austin Rich: Also, if you haven't downloaded your digital memento for this occasion, the Festival Program Guide is still available, too: bit.ly/FESTPROGRAMGUIDE
	👻 9:13pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:12 That's a good idea! I sold so many copies of that book back in the day. People LOVE that book.
	9:14pm Krys O.: Time to say good night! Cheers, Austin et al.
	👻 9:14pm Austin Rich: ↳ Krys O. @9:14 Night, Krys O! Until next time.
	9:14pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:13 The movie did not do it justice
	9:14pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Krys O. @9:14 Good night
	👻 9:15pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:14 Never saw it. Wasn't sure about it from the promos, and then forgot about it, mostly.
	9:16pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:15 Not an anthology. That was its downfall
	👻 9:17pm Austin Rich: I was wrong; there is an I Died web page: soundcloud.com...
	9:19pm Sarcofiguy: I've got to go to bed, dear fellow!!!! TAKE CARE YA CRAZY LUG, YOUUUUU!
	9:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Another anthology idea. "play ball" including horror stories about baseball including EC comics "Foul Play"
	👻 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Sarcofiguy @9:19 Sleep well, Sarcofiguy! And thanks for a great show!
	👻 9:22pm Austin Rich: bradanderson61.bandcamp.com...
	👻 9:22pm Austin Rich: Brad: are you in the chat?
	9:23pm brad253: yes
	👻 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @9:23 Excellent! Any comments on your set for Mutation Fest?
	9:24pm brad253: running late, but just in. Hello Austin :)
	👻 9:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @9:24 You're good!
	9:26pm brad253: hmmm, i curious to listen. It was awhile ago and my memory is hazy. It was a nice sunny day though, as i remember.
	9:27pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Song: "Live!" by "Brad Anderson" Amazing music
	👻 9:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @9:26 It was a nice day, for sure. This date - 21 May 2022 - is the "OG" Mutation Fest: three bands on the patio, all performing for this fest!
	👻 9:28pm Austin Rich: Brad has a new album coming out soon, if I'm not mistaken?
	👻 9:29pm Austin Rich: You can faintly hear the wind blowing on the mics as you are playing.
	9:29pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:29 Adds a touch of ambience.
	9:30pm brad253: Yes, GL1TCHKR13G. test copy turned out fine, so just put in an order.
	👻 9:30pm Austin Rich: Look for GL1TCHKR13G, available soon!
	9:35pm HyperDose: Oh wow 1st gen Axiom. That's a throwback. Think I've owned just about every keyboard controller M-Audio has made since 2008
	9:35pm coelacanth∅))): Greetings Rich and beautiful mutants
	9:36pm brad253: it's basic, but it works. I like to keep things simple.
	👻 9:36pm Austin Rich: ↳ HyperDose @9:35 I love it when the gear talk comes out! I'm playing an Oxygen49 these days, a freebie I got from a friend so I can learn Midi. it's fun!
	👻 9:36pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @9:35 coelacanth∅)))! Now the party can start!
	9:36pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: In Lost Christobel, the characters who appear most are Imaginos, Emma, Jason, Ruth, Richard, and Marabel.
	9:37pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @9:35 Good evening
	9:38pm brad253: the crowd is larger than I remember :)
	👻 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:36 Excellent. I bet we can find a handful of folks to cover those roles.
	9:38pm HyperDose: ↳ Austin Rich @9:36 I have the new Oxygen 49 which is M-Audio finally listening to the people. They retired the Axiom line and combined all the features of the Code series (which nobody bought because it was outrageously priced at $600) with the Oxygen price tag. A friend still uses my old Trigger Finger lol
	9:38pm brad253: Thank you Austin. Great to be part of the fest!
	👻 9:39pm Austin Rich: soundcloud.com...
	👻 9:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ HyperDose @9:38 I like the one I have. I do want to get a new keyboard, though. One I can take to shows and thrash around a little.
	👻 9:42pm Austin Rich: www.tif.org
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: www.patreon.com...
	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: And even more: instagon.bandcamp.com
	👻 9:45pm Austin Rich: Is LOB is the chat?
	9:46pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:38 That would be awesome
	9:48pm brad253: where is Luna Cafe?
	👻 9:49pm Heather Z: Hi everyone! Enjoying the fest here in Rochester!
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @9:48 Sacramento, CA. They host a lot of shows there, and it's a cool little place.
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:49 Heather Z! Nice to see you in the chat!
	👻 9:50pm Austin Rich: Imaginos: did you get to hear the new episode of "20 Minutes" I just finished?
	👻 9:50pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:49 Sitting on the floor, cat in lap, listening away!
	9:50pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Heather Z @9:49 Weather is hot in Chicopee. How is it in Rochester?
	👻 9:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:50 That's a good way to live.
	9:51pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:50 Some of it. Got distracted by an idea for my fix out of left field.
	👻 9:52pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:50 It's been nice! Little chilly out right now but the patio is open and the fire season (which has a much different meaning here on the east coast) has begun, i.e., bonfire party weekend time!
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:51 I found all the early career bits, about his work at the BBC with the Bonzo Dog Do-Dah band, to be very interesting. It's funny to hear about this whole early career I never knew about.
	👻 9:53pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 It's a kick butt ep! You outdid yourself on it, Austin!
	9:55pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 Bonus was awesome. Especially Equestrian Statue.
	9:55pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Bonzo.
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: I did a ton of editing today, and sorting / planning for the next couple episodes. And I think Heather and I will be recording Thursday for even more... hopefully we can get back on track.
	👻 9:56pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:55 It's on the calendar! Here's hoping my new studio set up provides better audio on my end!
	👻 9:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:55 Agreed. I love that band. Gonna play the whole Steve Interview, with more music requested by him, in June.
	👻 9:59pm Austin Rich: In case you couldn't quite hear it: this group of musicians had never played in this configuration before, and got one afternoon to hear the material before they started playing. (And not much of one, as I understand it.) Aside from a few basslines that were worked out ahead, most of this is being improvised.
	10:00pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Heather Z @9:56 I'm looking forward to working on Lost Christobel with everyone we can get to join in.
	👻 10:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:00 It'll be nice to work on a scripted project that I don't have to write!
	👻 10:02pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:00 Heck yeah!! It'll be awesome!!
	10:03pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Feel free to share the script with other Mutants.
	10:07pm Aitch: I am Cornholio!
	10:07pm Aitch: American friend has a corn hole set, it's fun
	10:08pm Four Dimensional: It's a Midwest thing
	👻 10:08pm Heather Z: I've played cornhole and I'm pretty ok at it!
	10:09pm brad253: Time Dilations wants to play another patio set this summer!
	👻 10:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @10:09 YES! Let's do it.
	👻 10:10pm Heather Z: We call it that at work events so I think it's the actual name! I do remember a friend going to school in PA and finding out about the game. The name did shock her! Back in.... 1992? Ai....
	10:10pm Aitch: ↳ Four Dimensional @10:08 My cornhole friend a Cuban new-yorker who met his australian wife at Uni in Texas.
	👻 10:11pm Heather Z: ↳ Four Dimensional @10:08 I'm in upstate NY and it's made it here, too.
	👻 10:11pm Austin Rich: More Naked Rabbit style creative work and whatnot: www.nakedrabbit.com
	👻 10:12pm Austin Rich: Tim is also the man behind Cat Head Theater: youtu.be...
	👻 10:13pm Austin Rich: It's the last night of Mutation Fest, so we'll run a little long this hour. Sorry about that!
	10:14pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:13 Awww, that's okay
	👻 10:15pm Austin Rich: As I understood it, Tim has been preparing to perform live, via a streaming interface, with multi-camera set-ups, where the music would sound "something like this." I would be happy to tune in for well-produced performances like this, if they happen. I might even shell out a few dollars for one, too.
	👻 10:15pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:13 Run long! I don't want Mutation Fest to end!
	10:16pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Reminds me of Adam in Chains
	👻 10:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:16 From that Billy Idol album?
	10:20pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:19 Cyberpunk. Yeah.
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:20 It's underrated. Not my favorite Billy Idol, but it's not as bad as advertised.
	10:22pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:20 Good songs. I liked Shock to the System. Did you know its about the Rodney King riots?
	👻 10:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:22 I think I remember that, vaguely. But I also remember watching the riots on TV, when they happened. (I suspect both you and Heather remember that, too.)
	👻 10:24pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:23 I do remember the riots on TV. But I don't know Billy Idol near well enough.
	👻 10:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:24 He's ALL STYLE. Sometimes his songs are not as good as he is, but he's stylish the whole time.
	👻 10:26pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 I am aware of the absolute style!! Phew, yeah, he's got that going on always!
	10:28pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Song: "Live on 22 March 2023" by "Tim Maloney" Wonderfully weird.
	👻 10:28pm Austin Rich: I bet Marilyn isn't a cool as Marla.
	👻 10:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:28 Yeah, I love the stuff Tim Makes. Really strange.
	👻 10:28pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:28 Yeah but no one is so....
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:28 She has Dune and Geiger tattoos! I mean, c'mon!
	👻 10:29pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:19 Anyone remember the Muppets with Rebel L who went Luh Luh Luh?
	👻 10:30pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:29 You know I'm a card carrying member of the MFC (Marla Fan Club)!
	👻 10:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:29 I don't! I'll have to google that. There's a lot of Muppets out there. I try, but I'm only one man!
	👻 10:31pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 It's good! As all things Muppet tend to be.
	👻 10:32pm Austin Rich: I like to think about the fact that Tim Worked on a Kids show for Disney. And I LAUGH. A Lot.
	10:33pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:32 Chuckle, snicker, or guffaw?
	👻 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:33 It sort of sounds the way that Ernie laughs, on Sesame Street.
	👻 10:38pm Austin Rich: More information about the movies of Tim Maloney: www.imdb.com...
	10:40pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: How much of Lost Christobel have you read so far?
	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:40 I'm most of the way through the first script.
	10:41pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:40 I assume you like it.
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:41 Yeah. I'm still thinking about how we can translate some of it to audio. I'm wondering if we need a narrator?
	10:43pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:42 A narrator would be a good idea. Especially for some of the scenes with Buzzardo.
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:43 Exactly. And there's a lot of stuff where a quick description could go a long way toward orienting the listener. But we might not need much, you know?
	10:45pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 Very valid point
	10:46pm coelacanth∅))): time to gotu work Thanks Austin Rich! and others! tchau
	👻 10:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:45 We could use a certain kind of music / sound cue combo to set the stage, with a little narration, and then in the future, that sound / cue combo will more quickly indicate location.
	👻 10:47pm Heather Z: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @10:46 Bye Coel!! Hope work is good!
	👻 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @10:46 Thank you, coelacanth∅)))! Always nice to have you join us.
	10:47pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:46 That's an awesome idea
	10:48pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @10:46 Have a good working day.
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: I always think that most boastful guys are secretly very, very lonely... and I'm glad Tim thinks so, too.
	10:52pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:46 What about doorchimes for the store scenes?
	👻 10:53pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:51 I think you're right. They're hard to be around and that makes it even more lonely but... they could stop boasting so much.
	👻 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:52 Yes! Exactly.
	👻 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:53 Seriously. Just: stop talking, dude. No: completely.
	👻 10:54pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:53 Yeahhhh.... this town has plenty of them, alas.
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:54 I do like staying home so much, because: no dumb dudes around, but myself. And I can usually keep quiet when I get annoying.
	👻 10:57pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:55 I usually manage to avoid them our but every once so often.... cornered and too polite to make a scene about it. Argh. Social conventions!!
	👻 10:58pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:57 The social convention for years was to just say, "I need to... not... be here... right now. And... this is the hard part... I need you to stay here. Forever."
	👻 10:59pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:58 Some day, some day soon, I'll be bold enough to see em coming and just say "yeah, no, we're not talking."
	👻 11:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:59 "Not today! It's the anniversary of the day I decided to stop enduring awful dudes!"
	👻 11:01pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:00 I love it! Committing that to memory!
	👻 11:02pm Austin Rich: I was so over-prepared for my call yesterday, I deep cleaned The Lava Lamp Lounge, and took a shower. Turned out the call was NOT video, and they preferred I just used audio. So... I have a very clean office, and a nice fresh shave... for myself, I guess?
	👻 11:03pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:02 That's all you for you now! I haven't been sleeping so I've been doing manic for me things like leaf blowing the dirt out of the garage and moving things up to the attic. The place looks great but wow. It would be nice to sleep.
	👻 11:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:03 Maybe it's time to take the things down from the attic and put them into the garage? Eventually it will wear you out...
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @11:04 Seriously: I have no good sleep advice. But: glad to hear the house looks nice.
	👻 11:06pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:04 The things are being moved, that's for sure. Many cabinets here have never been so organized! It's awesome! But so is sleep...
	11:06pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Just remember, nightmares are free horror movies
	👻 11:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:06 Sleep robs you of 1/3 of your life.
	👻 11:07pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:06 1/2 if I'm lucky. Slothra will rise again!!
	👻 11:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:07 Too many things to do. I already need to upgrade a bunch of parts at the Body Bank soon.
	👻 11:08pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @11:06 I did have a college panic dream recently that I forgot to register for any classes! Boring horror movie, really, but probably could do a skit on it!
	👻 11:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:08 I've seen those panicked students for real; my last Job in PDX was helping Freshmen and Sophomores get their schedules sorted. Those kids could worry!
	👻 11:09pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:08 Nothing needs to go to the attic. The garage is fine. Life is robbing me of sleep!
	👻 11:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:09 I hate my own insomnia, because those are not productive hours, when I can't sleep and I'm tired. It seems like an unfair situation.
	11:12pm brad253: Excellent close to an excellent Fest!
	👻 11:13pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:11 The mania is a nice twist on my usual insomnia where I'm just foggy and incapable. Ah, this is a fun topic! This has been so awesome!!! Thanks, Austin, and thanks everyone!!
	👻 11:14pm Austin Rich: Thanks everyone! Take care!
	11:15pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: You as well
	11:15pm brad253: Thank you Austin. See you next year :)
	👻 11:18pm Austin Rich: Absolutely! See ya'll next time!
	11:56pm Arvo: Hello! Where is everyone?

Mid-Valley Mutations with Austin Rich: Playlist from May 16, 2023

View austinrich's profile

A combination of collage, new experimental records and other bits and bobs, Mid-Valley Mutations is a tour through the mind of Austin Rich, who has been broadcasting in some form since 1998. Heavily influenced by Dr Demento, Don Joyce and old fashioned College Radio, Austin creates Audio Essays on a variety of subjects, and even just plays records, from time to time. Sometimes Live music and Interviews will grace the program, helping create a situation where you don't really know what you're going to hear, when you tune in. What you need to know is when you enter the Mid-Valley region, be prepared for the Musical Mutations... in whatever form they take.

Tuesday 9 - 11pm (EST) | On WFMU's Sheena's Jungle Room

	9:19pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Another anthology idea. "play ball" including horror stories about baseball including EC comics "Foul Play"
	👻 9:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ Sarcofiguy @9:19 Sleep well, Sarcofiguy! And thanks for a great show!
	👻 9:22pm Austin Rich: bradanderson61.bandcamp.com...
	👻 9:22pm Austin Rich: Brad: are you in the chat?
	9:23pm brad253: yes
	👻 9:24pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @9:23 Excellent! Any comments on your set for Mutation Fest?
	9:24pm brad253: running late, but just in. Hello Austin :)
	👻 9:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @9:24 You're good!
	9:26pm brad253: hmmm, i curious to listen. It was awhile ago and my memory is hazy. It was a nice sunny day though, as i remember.
	9:27pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Song: "Live!" by "Brad Anderson" Amazing music
	👻 9:27pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @9:26 It was a nice day, for sure. This date - 21 May 2022 - is the "OG" Mutation Fest: three bands on the patio, all performing for this fest!
	👻 9:28pm Austin Rich: Brad has a new album coming out soon, if I'm not mistaken?
	👻 9:29pm Austin Rich: You can faintly hear the wind blowing on the mics as you are playing.
	9:29pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:29 Adds a touch of ambience.
	9:30pm brad253: Yes, GL1TCHKR13G. test copy turned out fine, so just put in an order.
	👻 9:30pm Austin Rich: Look for GL1TCHKR13G, available soon!
	9:35pm HyperDose: Oh wow 1st gen Axiom. That's a throwback. Think I've owned just about every keyboard controller M-Audio has made since 2008
	9:35pm coelacanth∅))): Greetings Rich and beautiful mutants
	9:36pm brad253: it's basic, but it works. I like to keep things simple.
	👻 9:36pm Austin Rich: ↳ HyperDose @9:35 I love it when the gear talk comes out! I'm playing an Oxygen49 these days, a freebie I got from a friend so I can learn Midi. it's fun!
	👻 9:36pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @9:35 coelacanth∅)))! Now the party can start!
	9:36pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: In Lost Christobel, the characters who appear most are Imaginos, Emma, Jason, Ruth, Richard, and Marabel.
	9:37pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @9:35 Good evening
	9:38pm brad253: the crowd is larger than I remember :)
	👻 9:38pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:36 Excellent. I bet we can find a handful of folks to cover those roles.
	9:38pm HyperDose: ↳ Austin Rich @9:36 I have the new Oxygen 49 which is M-Audio finally listening to the people. They retired the Axiom line and combined all the features of the Code series (which nobody bought because it was outrageously priced at $600) with the Oxygen price tag. A friend still uses my old Trigger Finger lol
	9:38pm brad253: Thank you Austin. Great to be part of the fest!
	👻 9:39pm Austin Rich: soundcloud.com...
	👻 9:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ HyperDose @9:38 I like the one I have. I do want to get a new keyboard, though. One I can take to shows and thrash around a little.
	👻 9:42pm Austin Rich: www.tif.org

	👻 9:43pm Austin Rich: And even more: instagon.bandcamp.com
	👻 9:45pm Austin Rich: Is LOB is the chat?
	9:46pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:38 That would be awesome
	9:48pm brad253: where is Luna Cafe?
	👻 9:49pm Heather Z: Hi everyone! Enjoying the fest here in Rochester!
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @9:48 Sacramento, CA. They host a lot of shows there, and it's a cool little place.
	👻 9:49pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:49 Heather Z! Nice to see you in the chat!
	👻 9:50pm Austin Rich: Imaginos: did you get to hear the new episode of "20 Minutes" I just finished?
	👻 9:50pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:49 Sitting on the floor, cat in lap, listening away!
	9:50pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Heather Z @9:49 Weather is hot in Chicopee. How is it in Rochester?
	👻 9:51pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @9:50 That's a good way to live.
	9:51pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:50 Some of it. Got distracted by an idea for my fix out of left field.
	👻 9:52pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:50 It's been nice! Little chilly out right now but the patio is open and the fire season (which has a much different meaning here on the east coast) has begun, i.e., bonfire party weekend time!
	👻 9:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:51 I found all the early career bits, about his work at the BBC with the Bonzo Dog Do-Dah band, to be very interesting. It's funny to hear about this whole early career I never knew about.
	👻 9:53pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 It's a kick butt ep! You outdid yourself on it, Austin!
	9:55pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @9:53 Bonus was awesome. Especially Equestrian Statue.
	9:55pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Bonzo.
	👻 9:55pm Austin Rich: I did a ton of editing today, and sorting / planning for the next couple episodes. And I think Heather and I will be recording Thursday for even more... hopefully we can get back on track.
	👻 9:56pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @9:55 It's on the calendar! Here's hoping my new studio set up provides better audio on my end!
	👻 9:56pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @9:55 Agreed. I love that band. Gonna play the whole Steve Interview, with more music requested by him, in June.
	👻 9:59pm Austin Rich: In case you couldn't quite hear it: this group of musicians had never played in this configuration before, and got one afternoon to hear the material before they started playing. (And not much of one, as I understand it.) Aside from a few basslines that were worked out ahead, most of this is being improvised.
	10:00pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Heather Z @9:56 I'm looking forward to working on Lost Christobel with everyone we can get to join in.
	👻 10:01pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:00 It'll be nice to work on a scripted project that I don't have to write!
	👻 10:02pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:00 Heck yeah!! It'll be awesome!!
	10:03pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Feel free to share the script with other Mutants.
	10:07pm Aitch: I am Cornholio!
	10:07pm Aitch: American friend has a corn hole set, it's fun
	10:08pm Four Dimensional: It's a Midwest thing
	👻 10:08pm Heather Z: I've played cornhole and I'm pretty ok at it!
	10:09pm brad253: Time Dilations wants to play another patio set this summer!
	👻 10:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ brad253 @10:09 YES! Let's do it.
	👻 10:10pm Heather Z: We call it that at work events so I think it's the actual name! I do remember a friend going to school in PA and finding out about the game. The name did shock her! Back in.... 1992? Ai....
	10:10pm Aitch: ↳ Four Dimensional @10:08 My cornhole friend a Cuban new-yorker who met his australian wife at Uni in Texas.
	👻 10:11pm Heather Z: ↳ Four Dimensional @10:08 I'm in upstate NY and it's made it here, too.
	👻 10:11pm Austin Rich: More Naked Rabbit style creative work and whatnot: www.nakedrabbit.com
	👻 10:12pm Austin Rich: Tim is also the man behind Cat Head Theater: youtu.be...
	👻 10:13pm Austin Rich: It's the last night of Mutation Fest, so we'll run a little long this hour. Sorry about that!
	10:14pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:13 Awww, that's okay
	👻 10:15pm Austin Rich: As I understood it, Tim has been preparing to perform live, via a streaming interface, with multi-camera set-ups, where the music would sound "something like this." I would be happy to tune in for well-produced performances like this, if they happen. I might even shell out a few dollars for one, too.
	👻 10:15pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:13 Run long! I don't want Mutation Fest to end!
	10:16pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Reminds me of Adam in Chains
	👻 10:19pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:16 From that Billy Idol album?
	10:20pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:19 Cyberpunk. Yeah.
	👻 10:20pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:20 It's underrated. Not my favorite Billy Idol, but it's not as bad as advertised.
	10:22pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:20 Good songs. I liked Shock to the System. Did you know its about the Rodney King riots?
	👻 10:23pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:22 I think I remember that, vaguely. But I also remember watching the riots on TV, when they happened. (I suspect both you and Heather remember that, too.)
	👻 10:24pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:23 I do remember the riots on TV. But I don't know Billy Idol near well enough.
	👻 10:25pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:24 He's ALL STYLE. Sometimes his songs are not as good as he is, but he's stylish the whole time.
	👻 10:26pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:25 I am aware of the absolute style!! Phew, yeah, he's got that going on always!
	10:28pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Song: "Live on 22 March 2023" by "Tim Maloney" Wonderfully weird.
	👻 10:28pm Austin Rich: I bet Marilyn isn't a cool as Marla.
	👻 10:28pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:28 Yeah, I love the stuff Tim Makes. Really strange.
	👻 10:28pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:28 Yeah but no one is so....
	👻 10:29pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:28 She has Dune and Geiger tattoos! I mean, c'mon!
	👻 10:29pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:19 Anyone remember the Muppets with Rebel L who went Luh Luh Luh?
	👻 10:30pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:29 You know I'm a card carrying member of the MFC (Marla Fan Club)!
	👻 10:31pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:29 I don't! I'll have to google that. There's a lot of Muppets out there. I try, but I'm only one man!
	👻 10:31pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:31 It's good! As all things Muppet tend to be.
	👻 10:32pm Austin Rich: I like to think about the fact that Tim Worked on a Kids show for Disney. And I LAUGH. A Lot.
	10:33pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:32 Chuckle, snicker, or guffaw?
	👻 10:35pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:33 It sort of sounds the way that Ernie laughs, on Sesame Street.
	👻 10:38pm Austin Rich: More information about the movies of Tim Maloney: www.imdb.com...
	10:40pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: How much of Lost Christobel have you read so far?
	👻 10:40pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:40 I'm most of the way through the first script.
	10:41pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:40 I assume you like it.
	👻 10:42pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:41 Yeah. I'm still thinking about how we can translate some of it to audio. I'm wondering if we need a narrator?
	10:43pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:42 A narrator would be a good idea. Especially for some of the scenes with Buzzardo.
	👻 10:44pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:43 Exactly. And there's a lot of stuff where a quick description could go a long way toward orienting the listener. But we might not need much, you know?
	10:45pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:44 Very valid point
	10:46pm coelacanth∅))): time to gotu work Thanks Austin Rich! and others! tchau
	👻 10:46pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:45 We could use a certain kind of music / sound cue combo to set the stage, with a little narration, and then in the future, that sound / cue combo will more quickly indicate location.
	👻 10:47pm Heather Z: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @10:46 Bye Coel!! Hope work is good!
	👻 10:47pm Austin Rich: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @10:46 Thank you, coelacanth∅)))! Always nice to have you join us.
	10:47pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:46 That's an awesome idea
	10:48pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ coelacanth∅))) @10:46 Have a good working day.
	👻 10:51pm Austin Rich: I always think that most boastful guys are secretly very, very lonely... and I'm glad Tim thinks so, too.
	10:52pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: ↳ Austin Rich @10:46 What about doorchimes for the store scenes?
	👻 10:53pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:51 I think you're right. They're hard to be around and that makes it even more lonely but... they could stop boasting so much.
	👻 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @10:52 Yes! Exactly.
	👻 10:53pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:53 Seriously. Just: stop talking, dude. No: completely.
	👻 10:54pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:53 Yeahhhh.... this town has plenty of them, alas.
	👻 10:55pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:54 I do like staying home so much, because: no dumb dudes around, but myself. And I can usually keep quiet when I get annoying.
	👻 10:57pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:55 I usually manage to avoid them our but every once so often.... cornered and too polite to make a scene about it. Argh. Social conventions!!
	👻 10:58pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:57 The social convention for years was to just say, "I need to... not... be here... right now. And... this is the hard part... I need you to stay here. Forever."
	👻 10:59pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @10:58 Some day, some day soon, I'll be bold enough to see em coming and just say "yeah, no, we're not talking."
	👻 11:00pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @10:59 "Not today! It's the anniversary of the day I decided to stop enduring awful dudes!"
	👻 11:01pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:00 I love it! Committing that to memory!
	👻 11:02pm Austin Rich: I was so over-prepared for my call yesterday, I deep cleaned The Lava Lamp Lounge, and took a shower. Turned out the call was NOT video, and they preferred I just used audio. So... I have a very clean office, and a nice fresh shave... for myself, I guess?
	👻 11:03pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:02 That's all you for you now! I haven't been sleeping so I've been doing manic for me things like leaf blowing the dirt out of the garage and moving things up to the attic. The place looks great but wow. It would be nice to sleep.
	👻 11:04pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:03 Maybe it's time to take the things down from the attic and put them into the garage? Eventually it will wear you out...
	👻 11:05pm Austin Rich: ↳ Austin Rich @11:04 Seriously: I have no good sleep advice. But: glad to hear the house looks nice.
	👻 11:06pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:04 The things are being moved, that's for sure. Many cabinets here have never been so organized! It's awesome! But so is sleep...
	11:06pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: Just remember, nightmares are free horror movies
	👻 11:06pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:06 Sleep robs you of 1/3 of your life.
	👻 11:07pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:06 1/2 if I'm lucky. Slothra will rise again!!
	👻 11:08pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:07 Too many things to do. I already need to upgrade a bunch of parts at the Body Bank soon.
	👻 11:08pm Heather Z: ↳ ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova @11:06 I did have a college panic dream recently that I forgot to register for any classes! Boring horror movie, really, but probably could do a skit on it!
	👻 11:09pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:08 I've seen those panicked students for real; my last Job in PDX was helping Freshmen and Sophomores get their schedules sorted. Those kids could worry!
	👻 11:09pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:08 Nothing needs to go to the attic. The garage is fine. Life is robbing me of sleep!
	👻 11:11pm Austin Rich: ↳ Heather Z @11:09 I hate my own insomnia, because those are not productive hours, when I can't sleep and I'm tired. It seems like an unfair situation.
	11:12pm brad253: Excellent close to an excellent Fest!
	👻 11:13pm Heather Z: ↳ Austin Rich @11:11 The mania is a nice twist on my usual insomnia where I'm just foggy and incapable. Ah, this is a fun topic! This has been so awesome!!! Thanks, Austin, and thanks everyone!!
	👻 11:14pm Austin Rich: Thanks everyone! Take care!
	11:15pm ImaginosBuzzardoDesdinova: You as well
	11:15pm brad253: Thank you Austin. See you next year :)
	👻 11:18pm Austin Rich: Absolutely! See ya'll next time!
	11:56pm Arvo: Hello! Where is everyone?
