A full rainbow over Reykjavik this morning.
I’ve taken to using a small wide-angle lens (made for a camcorder) which i tilt in front of my cellphone camera to distort in the fish-eye tradition. No comments yet from people passing me on the street. Only stares.
Absolutely brilliant.
Tentative plans for today (Sunday, 8th day of November) include recording some tape tracks for Trampolining. Which, if they’re of any use, will be the first official tracks for the album.

Troubled By Insects presents:
THE TWO-HEADED BOY MUSIC LISTS for 2009
Over the next two months, I have the honor of presenting a collaborative effort to round up all things music that occurred in 2009. My good friend Truitt will be co-hosting a couple of regular entries here (as he toils to complete his second novel for NaNoWriMo), which will include 20 tracks selected for The TBI/THB 2009 Mixtape, as well as The TBI/THB Top 40 Albums of 2009.
Anyway, I hope you all stick around and bring your own voice to the discussion. I’m truly excited to present all of this to you soon.
To kick things off, here’s a track that I originally had included on the 2009 Mixtape, but present here as a introduction to this new feature.
