Introducing the Dirtyverbs Show
How often do we just stop and listen? How often do we hear voices from other places? The street sounds of other places? What if someone made you a mixtape just of sounds they heard everyday on their way to work?
That's right. It's the Dirtyverbs Show. A bilingual podcast of ambient mixtapes, interviews, poetry, commentaries, questions, music, electroacoustic experimentation, performances, urban soundtracks, improvisational linguistics and the occasional chile relleno recipe. Audio from central Mexico, Arizona, the border and beyond.
Hosted and produced by logan phillips. Listen in, either in the browser or as a download (play it in iTunes). And let me know what you think, kids. Thanks to Richard Minardi for telling I should get this in gear.

¿Cuántas veces nos paramos nada más para escuchar? ¿Cuándo tenemos la oportunidad de oír las voces de otros lugares? ¿Los sonidos de la calle, aquí y allá? ¿Qué pasaría si alguien te hiciera un mixtape de los sonidos que oigan todos los días en rumbo a su trabajo?
Bueno, aquí está. The Dirtyverbs Show. Un podcast bilingüe de mixtapes ambientales, entrevistas, poesía, comentarios, preguntas, música, experimentación electroacoustica, performance, soundtracks urbanos, lingüística improvisada y de vez en cuando una receta para chiles rellenos. Audio desde el corazón de México, Arizona, la frontera y más allá.
Todo por logan phillips. Escúchalo abajo. Y dime que piensan, chavos. Gracias a Richard Minardi por decirme que ya debo hacer esto. Puedes escucharlo desde aquí, o también descargarlo para abrir con iTunes.

In California they say that someday everything east of the San Andreas fault will fall into the ocean. And then all the rest of us, from our new homes at the bottom of the sea, will be like "wow, we miss being able to drive to California." These fotos take a stab at summing it up. None were edited or manipulated in any way except for size.
