“Headphones Are Stethoscopes” is the name of my weekly show on WCWM 90.9FM, the local college radio station at William & Mary, where I am a law student. We’re located a mere block away from Colonial Williamsburg, and I like to imagine that all the blacksmiths and butter-churners listen to me on their anachronistic boomboxes.
Usually, [...]

Dgenetics + Radiohead

October 13th, 2007 · 1 Comment

My old college roommate, the head of the Dgenetics Musics label, released a new music video for his disco roller jam “Skate With Me.” The visuals are 24 hours of quintessential “Floss Angeles”, thanks to talented director Drew Innis. Dgenetics rolls around town rockin’ a cardboard boombox radiohead and parties like an electro-pop star. The [...]

Roller Skating Sweetness

July 22nd, 2007 · 1 Comment

When was the last time you won’t roller skating? If you have to think, then it’s been way too long.
To remedy our skating deficiency, we headed out to D’Light Skate N’ Palace this weekend. It was the most fun I’d had at a skating rink since I skinned my knee while trying to impress my [...]

Tunnels

May 14th, 2007 · 1 Comment

Whenever I drive through a tunnel, I feel like I’m playing “Pole Position.” I picked up my sister from the airport this weekend and pushed record on my camera for part of the drive.
When I heard the band Anamanaguchi on Eric’s vimeo, I figured it would make a great soundtrack. Since, they’ve only licensed the [...]

I Turn My Radio On

April 23rd, 2007 · No Comments

Exams are coming up really soon, so today’s edition of Headphones Are Stethoscopes was probably the last show of the semester. Thanks so much for tuning in and putting up with what I’d like to think of as “spring training.” I might try to sneak in some shows this summer, or develop a regular podcast, [...]

Static Off My Chest

April 18th, 2007 · No Comments

Missed the live show? Download an archived mp3 of this week’s installment of “Headphones Are Stethoscopes.”
The antenna was broken this week, so those of you who tuned in using radio frequencies only heard static. It might have sounded as though I was doing an experimental show featuring white noise for 2 hours. Next week: trees [...]

Thanks for listening to this week’s “Headphones Are Stethoscopes.”
We had a record number of live listeners this week (at least one dozen!). While catching the show live is certainly fun, with the power of superdigital technology you can just enjoy the recording. Pretend it’s live. Exist within a non-linear universe. Break the space-time continuum. Do [...]

My computer has been sent to Apple for the third time for repairs. Apologies for the lack of updates on this site, but the creative part of my brain is on that hard drive.
If they don’t send it back to me by the end of the week (it’s already been 10 days), I am posting [...]
