Hi,

Have traveled hundreds of miles thru desert lands, the matchless beauty of which cannot be described.  All roads are “sand” - just like snow!

Sincerely,

STUDIO VISIT: KEVIN WILLIS (FEAT. JUSTIN DEARY & SHADOW), PT. I OF II.

Mojave Desert, California

When we didn’t have cell phones, when your band went on tour you had a little book of stamps and a phone card or if you’re really old-school just a roll of quarters that doubled for the laundrymat. The last page of your notebook had a list of the phone numbers and addresses you needed. The internet was just a copy of Book Your Own Fuckin’ Life underneath the passenger seat in the van.

Sometimes you’d get to the next town early in the day, and this friend had a friend who was doing this thing, and so on. They cooked you whatever food they had and you sat and talked about James Turrell and you took turns flipping the record. Poetry, songwriters, directors — you liked some of the same best ones. Yes. And after being alone in a van in what had just earlier that day been a very big world with hard edges, it’s melted into a world of kindness — in the way that you’re new friends but maybe you also were old friends in another life.

Michael Grab has mastered the art of stone balancing. He explains how he does it. “The most fundamental element of balancing in a physical sense is finding some kind of “tripod” for the rock to stand on. Every rock is covered in a variety of tiny to large indentations that can act as a tripod for the rock to stand upright, or in most orientations you can think of with other rocks. By paying close attention to the feeling of the rocks, you will start to feel even the smallest clicks as the notches of the rocks in contact are moving over one another. In the finer point balances, these clicks can be felt on a scale smaller than millimeters. Some point balances will give the illusion of weightlessness as the rocks look to be barely touching. Parallel to the physical element of finding tripods, the most fundamental non-physical element is harder to explain through words. In a nutshell, I am referring to meditation, or finding a zero point or silence within yourself. Some balances can apply significant pressure on your mind and your patience. The challenge is overcoming any doubt that may arise.”
