Excerpt from “The Visitor Asked For Dry Clothes” by Microtherapist

26 Sep 2023 was Day 1247 in the ongoing 100 Day Project timeline, although this was the second piece of the day.

I recorded this for Blissville Electro-Magnetic Laboratories & Blister Pop Unlimited in Massapequa, NY, USA.

Prompt – Open For Business

#blisterpopsep23

Word prompt – think of emotional openness between two people – the pluses or minuses

Music prompt – Pick a guitar open tuning and note the notes & the spread between the octaves used. This is not meant just for guitarists. You might have to do a little research if you are not one or just consider an open G tuning of D2-G2-D3-G3-B3-D4.
