Bob Dylan has written a new book! In “The Philosophy of Modern Song”, “[Dylan] analyzes what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song, and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal,” pitchfork.com/news/bob-dylan…

I'm officially a card carrying member of the Bob Dylan Center, which opens to the public in May. I'm not sure when I will make it to Tulsa, though.

Someone recently posted a nice, comprehensive look at Frox, a "SmartTV" prototype I developed for Hartmut Esslinger in the late 80's.

Someone disassembled and recreated an Apple /// demo that I wrote in early 1980, the colorful "Running Horses" demo that was used as part of the launch. It used images originally created by Eadweard Muybridge in 1878. robjapple.blogspot.com/2020/05/apple-…

Dylan’s new book of songwriting essays comes out in a couple of weeks. This morning the New York Times has excerpts for “Strangers in the Night”, noting that Frank hated the song, and “My Generation” where Bob speculates about the origins of “Tommy”.
