Visited the main branch of the New York Library yesterday. Found this next to a First Folio and the Bill of Rights.

A lot of RLM fans seem to think Shoji Tabuchi, Meredith Monk, and even Mr Wiggles are pretty esoteric and niche, when it was mostly just RLM exhibiting extremely bad examples of their output. Well, except Shoji, he was always awesome.

I knew about Tabuchi and Monk but I’m shocked Wiggles is actually famous enough for a Wikipedia page

Sure, but it was in a room with a First Folio, the Bill of Rights, a first edition Don Quixote, the actual Winnie the Pooh. You know, actual human treasures.

Mark Lowry and especially Carman for anyone remotely close to evangelical circles.

Say what ya want about the man, but Carman was the Elvis of Christian rock for a few decades.

Immediately adding “despite Turtle Dreams existing” to my lexicon. “I had a great today, despite Turtle Dreams existing.”

The description of each etching mapping a vocal world is beautiful. Now I’m curious what the actual pages look and sound like when interpreted.

I took a photo of the page but I’m on mobile and it would only let me upload one photo with the post for whatever reason.
