The Pain Of Space
The Great Pain Of Space is the the primary obstacle that prevents mankind from exploring the cosmos.
That's the premise of 'Scanners Live In Vain', a short sci-fi story written by Cordwainer Smith in 1945.
Cordwainer?
What kind of parents would name their kid Cordwainer?
In any case, it's a good read if you have an hour to kill.

I love your eclectic collages... they are like sonic funhouses.
Ouch! Kinetic!

Amazing track yet again, especially like the bass towards the end… In typically bonkers British historical tradition Cordwainers were shoe makers who in 1395 were banned from working on old shoes and could only use new leather…
Sonic Funhouse.
Yeah... I like that!
That's a song title.
Thanks!
I should have mentioned that Cordwainer was his pen name, but I thought it made for a good joke.
Can you imagine his parents saying "He looks like a Cordwainer".
Thanks for mentioning the fretless bass bit. In a previous life, I was a not-to-shabby bass player. I remember hearing Jaco Pastorius for the first time, and pulling out the frets that evening. Thanks for listening and your comments!
I enjoyed this a lot. Playlist-worthy.
Thanks for making me aware of him. The info I read there about him had some surprising details about his life.
Thank you very much!
Very well produced,indeed.
Very cool. I like the way the different sections have sounds that weave through from the previous one.
And is that a hurdy-gurdy at the end? Bonus points if it is
Thank you for that, and for mentioning Connie Crothers in an earlier post. I have been listening to her for the last few days.
Last night I found "All The Things You Are". I would love to know what's going on in her mind. I thoroughly enjoyed that!
Sometimes I overlap bits to make transitions between parts a little smoother. I'm not very good at documenting things, so I can't say for sure what that was. I'll take the bonus points, though!
Thank you for listening and commenting.
That’s great you’re enjoying Connie’s music, Paul. I knew Connie for forty years. She was an unusual person with an unusual mind. As to what she thought while playing, I imagine she would say her thinking mind was not engaged in her playing..or maybe just running on a parallel track… as in don’t try to stop your thoughts, and don’t be distracted by them.
Connie was a child prodigy. She was all music. She left California, graduate work in contemporary music, and a husband to study jazz with Lennie Tristano, sight unseen (after hearing Lennie’s Requiem). She knew what she wanted and, musically, was always guided to her true North by her musical spirit.
I once asked her what I should do when I played a phrase I liked… should I repeat it? She said “Play anything but”.
Listening to Lennie’s music will inform you about Connie. She was not a Lennie clone but the way he approached improvisation affected her totally. Bottom line, she loved music. It was the most important thing for her.
Another excellent production!
Totally unpredictable and you’ve made it all fit together so seamlessly. Complex but accessible. This is a really great composition. I really enjoyed this.
Impressive, to say the least.
Thank you very much, Mac! Hope things are going well for you and the family. Looking forward to some fun stuff.
I had to come back and edit this. "Complex but accessible". That is truly a high compliment. Thank you!
Thank you so much! It means a lot to me. I hope you have a great day!
Thanks Ed! I appreciate the kind words.
