Lyrics

i'm building up a sculpture
one voxel at a time
chocolate rabbits
i'm building up a picture
one pixel at a time
candy corn
daffodils
chocolate coins

i'm building up a song
one sample at a time
autumn leaves
a meadow lark
candied apples
white snow drifts
a cricket chirping
slices of life

a green leaf drifting down the stream
a rainstorm
slices of time
blue sky
thunder rumbling

a grain of sand
dark gray clouds

snow falling

a green rock
children laughing

the silver light before sunset

the wind blowing through the trees

a blue robin's egg

chocolate rabbits

the night falling

clouds

i'm building up a sculpture
one voxel at a time

	What a long strange trip it's been You had to be committed to do this piece. I won't say where to. Much enjoyed - head scratching and all. Trying to grasp the concept behind the dimensions - do explain. The swimming voices are pretty amazing. Check out my latest song called ditto

	. you had to ask! there is an analogy going on here: 3 dimensions - sculpture - voxels 2 dimensions - picture - pixels 1 dimensions - song - samples there are also 3 different songs blended together here. Check out my latest song called RUOK

	. except for that 20 minute "relaxation tape" (http://www.macjams.com/song/30708 "Ponder Then Awaken") this is the longest of my tunes to date. there actually is some intentional stuff going on in the mix here... thanks Bud Check out my latest song called RUOK

	. thanks - glad you liked it - it was a fun experiment in chaos - i think i was thinking about "Revolution Nine" a little while doing this. Check out my latest song called RUOK

	what an undertaking is this why i feel like you have been gone awhile? really cool piece. i'm prety blown away at all the changes and different parts you fit into this. great job. Check out my latest song called yes you told me (that you're cynical)

SmokeyVW	SmokeyVW said 2015 days ago (November 16th, 2007)
	. i've been real busy with work and stuff at home. i guess that's the source of the energy behind the chaos here. this song is a construct of three songs that have been partially done for a long while... each one alone just wasn't going anywhere. together they have become whole. thanks Check out my latest song called RUOK

	All my favorite memories incl. Rock & Roll I close my eyes, the sound of your voice has not changed - calls me home to New England and childhood, I am transported back through time. I remember the happiness in simple things. :-) Peace Bill :-)

	. you found part of the theme in the lyrics - cool! i was going for universals... thanks for listening and commenting Check out my latest song called RUOK

	hyperrabbit I like all the various textures... like the overlapping, evolving patterns and visual kaleidoscopic rhythms that leave large-scale strobed temporal trails. Hm, this tune makes my mind wander: good work. Check out my latest song called Mercury (RPM 6)

.
the three songs in here are in different keys with different tempos and different styles and moods. they really don't "want" to be mixed, but it works in a way. it's a sort of flood of feelings as a result - and somewhere in the process i realized what the title needed to be.

each song is a separate GarageBand project. i ended up tweaking each one several times to make them mix the way i needed them to. the spoken lyrics were added as a fourth element to really drive home some concepts about dimensions and elementary ideas/sensory inputs.

thanks!

	I have not got a first clue of what's going on here but I really, really like it whatever it is. It goes in very deep and is extremely powerful. Superb. Cheers Len Check out my latest song called B E A U T I F U L

	. glad you liked it - understanding is probably not a goal here - more like confusion & chaos - so i think you got what's going on all right! thanks Check out my latest song called RUOK

	Weird stuff for a Sunday actually this weoid stuff anytime. Wonderfully put together. I love the melding of styles, textures and words. Nice one. Cheers Dick Check out my latest song called Not For The Likes of You

	. thanks - i poured some personal negative energy into this and it turned it into a fun project - it's almost therapeutic. Check out my latest song called RUOK

	Well, sir... ...with a song title like that...bound to attract some kind of attention... ...where do I order the chocolate rabbit sculpture...? Love the sweeping theme with the beat still steady...then the vox and the move away from the beat... ...nice, nice piece, SVW... Check out my latest song called 'Cuz I Can

SmokeyVW	SmokeyVW said 2015 days ago (November 16th, 2007)
	. hmmm... i hadn't even considered trying to draw attention. the title came up as a good description of what the song was turning into as i worked on it. (and i have no idea where to find those rabbits any more.) thanks! Check out my latest song called RUOK
