1:24:34 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I will be presenting the audio of a cassette tape from my collection. It’s a way to help motivate me to digitize more of my archives.

This tape is from late 2001 thru early 2002. It was a time where I was struggling to find the right creative direction – focusing on two projects – 209 and Severe Repair. I talk about these projects while walking around NYC and driving around NJ. Luckily for me, I was able to move past these stalled projects the following year and start The Overnightscape, which turned out to be a much better creative project for me.

“Gullhall” was a name for some idea I had – it’s written on the tape, but I don’t talk about it in the audio.

Notes: [11/29/01] subway?, [11/30/01] corner of Prince and Wooster, cheap new tape recorder, Obliviana, 40th Street, 209, [12/2/01] Route 3, cigars and storage, Thinkfang theories, sunset, junkyard, Severe Repair, Menlo Park Mall, the back way to storage, Woodbridge Center Mall, book about publishing, time travel scene from Severe Repair, [12/3/01] subway, more about the scene, later on, [12/5/01] Penn Station, more Severe Repair notes (the computer game Beautiful Disaster Area), street sounds, beggar, [1/25/02] doing 209 lately, dream, work meetings, [1/27/02] Best Buy parking lot, 209, Stormjaunting, do one thing – do it well, cults, Staples, creative projects, [1/30/02] 209 experience, lunch experience, Silmarillion.

Here’s the Severe Repair chapter I wrote based off the notes I was talking about.
