@kwlblt Fun Wilco fact. Glenn has taken the year off to be his child’s primary caregiver while his wife concentrates on her Fulbright research. A sweet guy, amazing talent*, and devoted to equally in his marriage.
/* If you haven’t heard his solo work, I highly recommend it.
@Bruce Oh cool, thanks for the rabbit hole! I see he did an album with Sō Percussion and I have a connection to one its members, so I’m listening to it now.
@kwlblt The Colorado, a film Glenn helped compose for and performs in. I light the live scored performances (which is how I know him). It’s definitely worth seeing if it comes to your town. And the album may be available to stream. (Jeff and Roomful are mind blowing too).
@Bruce That looks incredible, I will keep my eyes out for it.
@kwlblt If you ever want recommendations from the “New Music” world, I have a ton to share. I’ve been extremely lucky to work with some incredible artists. I have two upcoming projects that I’m really excited about.
And I guess I really like cellists.
@Bruce have you seen the Steven wilson cover by cello ?
@JohnPhilpin Nope. Could you shoot me a link?
@Bruce Do you know Ben Sollee? He seems like he’d be right up your alley.
@kwlblt I haven’t. Thanks for the tip! Sounds like he might be a good fit for Sawdust too, given his multimedia interests…
@Bruce Can’t have too many cellists.
@kwlblt Especially beautiful ones who are a joy to light.
One reason I really like working with Amanda is she memorizes everything and plays with her eyes closed. So I can dramatically blast her in the face and create awesome shadows that would be impossible with other musicians.
@kwlblt I also didn’t mean to confine that comment to women. While I can’t blind Jeff, he is a gorgeous man and his skin is a joy to light. There’s just so much luscious warmth within it. Which matches perfectly when he plays Paola Prestini’s music. They’re married and, unsurprisingly, Paola writes incredible music for the cello and Jeff interprets it with great nuance.
@Bruce You write like the lines between sound and light are a little fuzzy. Probably makes you good at your job.
@kwlblt Awww shucks. Thank you; that’s a wonderful compliment.

@JohnPhilpin Beautiful. And that’s a beard I can get behind!
The film, on the other hand…sometimes less is more. //@kimonostereo
@Bruce yeah – i typically don’t watch the video – close my eyes and go with it ….. there again … http://www.youtube.com/watch is the video for the original music …. and this is one of his videos that I love … blottings.philpin.com/permanati… – so bright, happy and invigorating
(spoiler alert – no cellos)
