Very busy couple of weeks, so didn’t actually read anything.

Still on Streams of Silver by R. A. Salvatore, 2nd novel in Icewind Dale series, which is a subseries of Forgotten Realms series (D&D world).

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

    How Music Works by David Byrne. It was recommended to me by a colleague when asked about good resources on learning more about music.

    I’m only in chapter 3, so far it’s been interesting. About how music has adapted since the introduction of recordings, about the shifting perceptions, not only in music but also showmanship, size of venues, choice of instruments. The current chapter is about the different recording media and their impact on the music.

    All very interesting, although I do hope it will soon delve deeper into the nitty gritty: notes and intervals, progressions, and all the things I’m still totally unaware of.
