open mind

yes all the time. the ratio depends on how inspired [or shitty] i am
that particular day. i think you're better off doing a lot of work less
carefully than a little work more carefully. kinda like we say in the
[open] software biz, 'release early and often'.

> What the heck is microsound anyway?
