Since 2021, my home has been a remote cabin in New Hampshire’s beautiful White Mountains. I share the cabin with two incredible rescue dogs named Scully and Dexter Clove Thickwhsitle III. (We just call him Dex.) Together we’re collecting many lessons and stories of self-reliance and while it’s not as rustic and off-grid as some, you’ll need a very capable 4X4 if you plan to visit.

On the YouTubes
You’ll find me listed as Dr. Synthy Pants, and I’ve been enjoying an especially lovely time lately…

Improvising solos, performing sound design on my favorite instruments, talking about issues facing composers in 2025, walking though various studio configurations, and even trying my hand at vintage synth repair… it’s all there!
In The Studio
Speaking of studio rebuilds… I maintain numerous projects and collaborations in a dawless, linux-based music production studio built into my mountain cabin. You can hear recent music here and/or take in a video about the studio on my YouTube channel.

Travels
Last spring Scully and I took an extended overland/camping trip through the Blue Ridge Mountains to escape New England’s dreaded mud season. It was a wonderful way to turn fifty. Perhaps I’ll need to look at a similar trip this year?
