Mild Slopes: Pauline Baynes vs. Eyvind Earle

Pauline Baynes vs. Eyvind Earle

I can't help but wonder if they were inspired by one another, or even aware of one another. Surely they were aware of each other, they were both making stunning, medieval artwork at exactly the same time (50's and 60's). I suppose they were working in different mediums. Anyway, I think the similarities are pretty remarkable.

. . . Towards a Quaker View of Synthesizers

This blog is about electronic music instruments made by the Roland corp. in the late 70's and early 80's (mostly pre-MIDI instruments that deal in wholesome CV and Gate signals). It's also about my conversion to Quakerism, my fondness for C.S. Lewis, The Epcot Center, eggnog, oatmeal flavored soap, etc, etc. Herein I will try to connect the real or imagined dots between them.
Bits of comedy throughout.

Join me as we apply the Quaker concepts of plainness and simplicity to the creation of electronic music.
