Posting to Utterli via the Nokia N96

Mobile post sent by TheFauxPress using Utterli. Replies. mp3

Yes indeedy, it can be done.

Added my utterli email address to the N96 contacts list and somehow, when I asked the phone to send Utterli a message, it asked me if I wanted to record audio.

Does a drunk want a drink?

Well...yeah!

Here it is.

Sweet.

Unfortunately, Shozu doesn't yet have an application that's N96 ready, so I'm still trying to figure out how to get good-quality (> 300kb) videos to upload & auto-post here.

Nokia's out-of-the-box Ovi seems to work. More on that later.

Sunstroke Live :: 12/3/80 :: Phil Platten & Jan McLaughlin

.:. Faux Press .:.

Broke out the old Nagra III and the 40-year-old reel-to-reel still works, dagnabbit.

Dusted off some reel-to-reel stuff in search of any stuff I may have recorded with the venerable Dick Bungo in order to make a gift of it to his son.

More digitizing and archiving.

Phil Platten was a wonderful partner and friend; together, we made Sunstroke.

Especially thrilled to share it with his swell partner, Dennis Lockard.

We made many friends doing this -- many of whom I've lost contact with. We played Nathaniel's in Greensburg, The Rhododendron, Wolfendale's, the Cony Island, Sgro's, Seven Springs Resort, The Purple Rhinoceros, and once, The Decade in Pittsburgh. We toured as far west as Chicago, and east to the New Jersey & Maryland Shores.

Perhaps Google Juice will allow us to find one another once again and celebrate those fine times.

POST NOTE: It was the Raspberry Rhinoceros in Pittsburgh's Shadyside.

Grace :: The Story of the Remote :: Dirty Joke

.:. Faux Press .:.

Learn to listen.

Here's a telling of "The Story of the Remote".

The image is from an earlier post wherein I show you part of the woman who speaks in this podcast

The upside of the dismal-looking and feeling foot situation is that she has a better way to flip her husband the bird.

She is my hero.

Her humor in the face of enormous pain astonishes and inspires.

Music is "Mother's Blues" from Jeff Kelley's Classic Acoustic Blues album - about whom I've written in this space before.

I Got a Bug Up My Butt - Ow!

Screw mainstream news - all the news I need bubbles up from friends - drive-time radio - NPR - today's news made me weep - misanthropy / Miss Anthrope - "Kidnapped" - beauty contests - Miss America - people can be so horrible to one another - creeping misanthropy from the news - screw that - relieved by personal experience - making lemonade out of lemons - this bug in my butt - thank heaven for friends who scratch the itch of the bug in my butt - faith in humanity and the future - it isn't done alone.

Florida Poems :: Carlos at the Cuban Cafeteria

Miami. A portrait. Appropriate with the stand down of Fidel Castro. A portrait of longing for the old island of Cuba from Calle Ocho.

Why Film Making?

Film making as anti-isolation device - weddings & weldings - parades - faux parade - hungry march band - brooklyn - get a hobby - when I lose heart - robert croma - dannypayne - media ripples - getting it out in music - vote of confidence - the cost of truth - painting on big canvases.
