Prague
I’m in Prague, doing a bunch of performances at the Quadrennial theater design shindig. In the middle of the US exhibit, I’m performing three scenes from The Adventures of White-Man with video projection. It’s been a gas.

The Gregory Brothers
Just heard these guys for the first time. Famous for their “auto tune the news” series, their pop songs are fantastic. Some of the best music I’ve heard in years. Check this out:

Still waiting on my vent dummy. It’s been over a year I’ve been waiting; I just heard from him in the middle of writiing this post, telling me that he thinks it will be done in the next two weeks.
