70-year old life-long musician, now semi-retired, still teaching music privately. Primary instruments are guitar and bass. I'm also a singer. Formal studies include private classical guitar work with Jerry Willard (Cleveland) and Sophocles Papas (Washington DC). I studied music theory and composition with Michael Jon Fink in Los Angeles. I've been using computers to make music since the late 1980s, beginning with MS-DOS, later switching to Linux. Authored one book (The Book Of Linux Music & Sound), contributed to a couple others (The Csound Book, The Audio Programming Book), and wrote a lot of articles (hard-copy and online) on Linux audio during the early 2000s. I've been using VCV Rack since September of 2017. Still learning, still loving it all.
