Iconography, Remix: Philip Glass


The past two days, I think I have listened to the new album Rework_ , the remixes of classic Philp Glass compositions by contemporary popular artists like Beck, Cornelius, and Dan Deacon, about ten times. For a variety of reasons, including the not insignificant post-vacation melancholy, induced by being thrust from an aura of peace and calm and beauty, and vineyards, back to my cubicle, the past couple of days have been rough. These interpretations of beautiful pieces have been soothing and a welcome soundtrack to my lazily frantic scrambling to be caught up.
