It's done. I installed everything this morning, and within about 10 minutes, neighbors started coming by to play.

This is just me (my wife shot the vertical video) plinking around.

I'll post a bunch of process photos and notes on the blog and add a link to that here eventually, but as of today, I'm really pleased with the sound quality from the resonators.

It's lovely having soft tones float up through the living room window as random people stop by to make random music.

It's the whole reason why I built the thing in the first place.

On Beach Road in Vineyard Haven.

The first time Andrea and I stopped in I said; I know I’m not the first to ask but “Althea” like Jerry Garcia..?

-No, like reggae…

Uptown, I interrupted..?

-Top Reggae

She finished.

She is one of the good ones. Mostly works in Lino. This is her first painting in a long time. She was visibly energized by the process.

Thinking of California Sun...

A large collage of Polaroid photographs of swimmers in a pool. The text at the bottom of the poster reads: In Color: Ten California Photographers. The Oakland Museum Oakland, Cal. May 21-July 17, 1983.

The show, like the moments captured, was apparently fleeting, but the serene blue of the waters lasts in the mind.

This signed Hockney print of "Ian Swimming, Los Angeles, 1982" was recently donated to the art collection at my wife's employer. I always loved his Polaroid constructions and this one has a lovely, serene motion timelapse feel to it. Perfect for a summer's afternoon.

Tony Hertz and Lolly were living in Pismo Beach, California, when he took this shot. At the time he was working on a photography series and book based around shadows, and he had taken her along on one of his regular sunset walks.

An angular aluminum tube frame 8 feet long stands on 4 short tube legs set into a lawn in front of a pale green 1929 house against a blue sky.
(previously: https://www.xylovan.com/xylovan/)

I’ve dreamed of installing the big xylophone in front of the house ever since we moved in five years ago.

My son and I finally picked up the all instruments from storage in LA and brought them home in January. I have another project in the works using keys from the other big keyboard - details to come as it comes together.

Over the past few weeks I polished up all the keys, built new resonators, and rebuilt the top end of the frame to fix the ugly gap that used to be there to allow it to mount cleanly on the van’s flanks. It’s a lot purtier now.

This morning I dug holes for the four legs with a posthole digger and then lowered the frame into place with the help of friends and neighbors.

I plumbed and leveled things with the frame parallel to the little slope in front of the house ( at a nice, playable 40-degree angle), set the legs in place with small stones to steady them, and poured in and then doused a bag of quickset concrete for each.

Tomorrow I mount the new resonators and reinstall 2-1/2 octaves worth of aluminum keys.

It’s happening. I’m stoked.

@mare Not in this neighborhood. I softened them up for a solid year by setting these little things up in the tree out front. Now we have people playing it multiple times a day. It’s a pretty gentle sound and young and old enjoy banging on them.

A guy stopped by during the xylophone installation this morning to gawp at the big frame and said “My kid’s gonna love this, we always stop and play on those (the gongs).”

My first mural update #2

No alt provided
alt text
This a couple of days ago. Nearing completion. It’s one of the few shots where the scissor lift isn’t in the way. Since then, I’ve done a lot more work and added lots of lines. Today I decided it to be finished. Tomorrow we’re going to add a top coat.

And on Saturday, there is going to be an official opening and neighborhood party, because two other murals in my neighborhood accidentally have been finished in the last two months as well. So we decided to team up our festivities.

If you’re in Rotterdam on Saturday, June 13, drop by at the corner of Assendelftstraat and Adamshofstraat. 15 PM sharp!

On Google Maps, you can still get a glimpse of what the previous rather dilapidated mural looked like. Nobody was happy with it:

@joost thanx! I have to add I did take a little the most favorable spot to take a picture from. If you stand right in front of it a rather small tree is in the way. I do hope it won’t get too big 🙂

It’s so cute because there’s a school on the square as well, and every day these primary school kids come by and they all look at the mural for minutes and minutes, inspecting all the creatures and flowers I have put into it. It’s super rewarding.
