  • http://su.pr/2oINDA Fleshmap: Studies of Desire. A really cool visualization of sexual information. Science + art. Probably NSFW. #
  • http://su.pr/5ihuKc Seth Godin on the end of dumb software. #
  • http://su.pr/7HJBYF My notes on "Here Comes Everybody" by Clay Shirky. Probably with some typos. #
  • Very pumped to start reading "The Savvy Musician" ( http://su.pr/4Y6rY9 ) next! #
  • Check out @michelle_reinke 's paintings on Etsy! For sale if anyone is interested! http://su.pr/2JMJDk #
  • Why do people put their website URL in the title of the page? I get it, I'm there already. Put something that I didn't type in already! #
  • Call me old fashioned, but I just like my books to have text. Not fancy boxes with dark grey background and hard to read text. #
  • My Dream Job http://su.pr/3uvcfy #
  • Any composers out there want to write me a piece? I'll play it on recitals next spring! #
  • http://su.pr/2TkQaS Classical guitar and upright bass, an unlikely (but nice!) duo. #

  • Monday Motivation: McAllister/Agnew Edition http://classicalguitarblog.net/gVfU #
  • Not sure when I learned out to use im for fast scales, but apparently I did. Sometimes I freak myself out with this stuff. Gotta be a fluke. #
  • Trying some slow practice stuff for a few weeks. Been a while since I've done it. Three hours done today before noon. #
  • Going to pull the trigger and buy finale. #
  • Sometimes my mom is a bit to enthusiastic about defending her kids. (sigh) #
  • http://su.pr/1fRYLI Watch Jose Romanillos build a guitar (or parts of one). Very interesting. #
  • Anyone wanna watch me play random stuff on ustream.tv? #
  • I just played guitar for fun. I never do that anymore. It's always "work" or "practice." I need to do this more often! #
  • I will do a 45 minute (ish) recital on ustream later this semester. Now I'm excited about it! #
  • Perfect Left Hand Finger Placement http://classicalguitarblog.net/8Vpp #
  • RT @AnnaHill: Lily Allen on file-sharing. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/8256607.stm I'd add not just new artists that suffer… #
  • http://su.pr/6lkx5T Would you take advice about how to play guitar from this guy? #
  • RT @emonome: Photos taken from the same angle and subject, a year apart. http://bit.ly/H70Ma #
  • Ever noticed that everyone talks about methods and lessons, and no one talks about practicing? But practicing is what makes you good. #
  • A Johns Hopkins student kills an intruder with a samurai sword. http://su.pr/3TUgVg #
  • http://classicalguitarblog.net/tsNS great points made in this comment on my post from earlier, "Perfect Left Hand Finger Placement" #
  • I am very frustrated that my mother such a ridiculous drama queen. #
  • What I Want My Concerts to Be http://su.pr/2jyU7r #
  • RT @luluaghost Check this video out — Missing Reporter http://bit.ly/2w7l1F #

  • Target Audience: Concerts http://su.pr/1hWdqj #
  • Planning out some research for the next eBook. #
  • Sometimes I dislike the guitar's harmonics and overtones. Sor would sound amazing really dry. It'd be very dainty and nice. #
  • #GuitarTip Guitarists have to "play" (mute the strings) rests. Rests can be very rhythmic and expressive. Pay attention to them! #
  • RT @simpleton001: Feeling disenfranchised? Feeling listless? There's an App for that. #

  • http://su.pr/2ZRnwT A new video of myself. One of the Fernando Sor pieces I've been working on. Some mistakes. #
  • I'd really love to have my programs be half classical guitar and half steel string micheal hedges style guitar. That'd be outstanding. #
  • Just wrote a nice melody/accompaniment. Beginnings of a poppy (ish) steel string piece. #
  • Just go my copy of Finale. I can finally typeset some scores, and make exercises for students. Next plan: scale bootcamp. #
  • Gotta start type setting some music to learn finale! Sor maybe? #
  • What I should really do is collect some public domain studies I really like, typeset them and give them away. #
  • Free ornamentation is very confusing. Every book on the subject is extremely vague. As are all the treatise writings, apparently. #
  • Sor's Theme and Variations Op. 27? Outstanding. #
  • Just learned something: every time I listen to guitar recordings, I realize how much more practicing I need to do. #
  • http://su.pr/2ngi2S @sivers knows that it's better not to fight things. #

  • No show students make me frustrated. #
  • Ornamentation research today. Trying to get a more concrete idea of when to use standard ornaments (trills, mordents, slides, etc.). #
  • Hateful comments on two of my videos. Just the way I like it. http://su.pr/1zdKzl http://su.pr/6VFCoC #
  • http://classicalguitarblog.net/GPTQ The Classical Guitar Blog has a (slightly) new look! Now to develop landing pages… #
  • What do you think of the Classical Guitar Blog's new look? http://www.classicalguitarblog.net/ #
  • Working on my next product. #
