Linux Gazette. News. Commons News. CC talks with Marc Weidenbaum This guest blog post was written by Niki Korth. If you’re in the Bay Area, come see Marc read from his new book at City Lights Thursday night and come hear Niki speak at next week’s CC Salon. Marc Weidenbaum / Jorge Colombo In 1996, Marc Weidenbaum founded the website Disquiet.com, which focuses on the intersection of sound, art, and technology.

He has written for Nature, the website of The Atlantic, Boing Boing, Down Beat, and numerous other publications. He initiated and moderates the Disquiet Junto group, where musicians respond on SoundCloud to weekly Oulipo-style restrictive compositional projects. He developed the sound design with Taylor Deupree for the 2013 documentary The Children Next Door. Where does the name Junto come from? Around the year 1727, when he was barely into his 20s, Benjamin Franklin had the desire to create a small society.

Yeah, I think that registers. Something important for me happened in 2006. What about “internet”? Full Circle Magazine. Elementary News. OMG! Ubuntu! Linux Hardware Reviews, Benchmarking, & Gaming.
