My most excellent friends Emma and Nick (a.k.a. Industrial Park) have recorded a song for you.
Sometimes your friends are in bands and you’re like “Of course I’ll come see you play, because I love you, and I want your tape because it’s a thing you made,” but you’re still not super into hardcore music or experimental keyboards or whatever.* But this is different. I’m actually going to listen to it when they’re not around. I sound gooey and momish when I say this but I’m really proud of them.
The first Industrial Park track “Cold White” is available for listening. Recorded & Mastered by David Lindell 1.28.12 in Portland, OR.
*No offense intended to my friends with hardcore bands or experimental keyboard projects. I love you.

Frontier Fellowship: Now Accepting Applications
The Frontier Fellowship gives creative professionals the opportunity to immerse themselves in the town of Green River, Utah (pop. 953) for four weeks. From this rural place, and in the context of the frontier, fellows respond to living and working in the desert of Utah. The experience encourages context-driven collaborative work.
"Can the network of public spaces, streets and squares, parks and lakes, landscapes and rivers, be connected in such a way that ordinary urban citizens become curious about the diversity of the landscape where we live? So that they are eager to discover its tensions and contrasts, between public and secret, between order and labyrinth, between high culture and garden gnomes, between dynamic areas and those that have remained unchanged in human memory, between officially sanctioned beauty and the discovery of the beautiful in the ugly? Can the landscape where we live, in all its functional, socioeconomic, and cultural differentiation, once again be made a legible and livable commonwealth?"
