Sad to see that The Dream Weaver, Gary Wright has died. Even more sad to see that he had Parkinson’s and Lewy body dementia. Back in the Topspin days, I had many interactions with Gary. He was so lovely and curious. He was also an early adopter and pioneer in ways that seem minor in the grand scheme of a NY Times obituary. I experienced him to be curious and embracing of new technologies, especially as music became digitized. He was a notable early adopter of Liquid Audio as an example. As ink is spilled in the coming days and weeks, I hope to see this covered. My sympathies go out to his family, friends and collaborators.

Molly Holzschlag has left us. She also left a dent. What a legend, literally and figuratively.
Russell over at Sweet P Productions has released Cookie 7. Highly recommend his apps overall. Zero hesitation in updating Cookie.

I'm not sure why everyone is getting so excited about having their driver’s licenses on their phones. I’m not sure how traffic stops will work, but I sure as hell am not handing my unlocked phone to a cop.
The world needs more Spencer Sheehan’s. Not all heroes wear capes.
Advice needed. My daughter is getting more serious about piano and I need to get a keyboard with weighted keys. I’d love for it to be a MIDI keyboard for some more versatility. What do I get?? Ideally I want to get something used if possible, but need to know what to look for. #music
Good read from Sean on social media.
