Disquiet Junto Project 0636: Left (1 of 3)
Dear Members of the Disquiet Junto,
This week initiates the annual three-part Disquiet Junto project in which we build asynchronous trios over the course of three weeks. I highly recommend that if you have any friends you've been thinking of introducing to the Junto, this project makes for a great place to start. You can join in at any point of this three-week sequence, or participate in all three. Instructions appear below.
And thanks, as always, for your generosity with your time, creativity, and curiosity.
Best from San Francisco,
Marc Weidenbaum

Disquiet Junto Project 0636: Left (1 of 3)
The Assignment: Record the first third of a trio.
Please note: While this project is the start of a three-part sequence that will unfold over the course of three weeks, you can participate in any or all three of those parts.
Step 1: This week’s Junto project is the first in a sequence intended to encourage and reward collaboration. You will be recording something with the understanding that it will remain unfinished for the time being. Your part will be done, but more will happen. Read on.
Step 2: The plan is for you to record a short and original piece of music using any instrumentation of your choice. Conceive the piece as something that leaves room for something else — other instruments, other people — to join in. (Keep in mind that your piece would appear panned to the left in the finished recording, after three weeks.)
Step 3: Record a short piece of music, roughly two to three minutes in length, as described in Step 2.
Step 4: This is important: be sure to make your track downloadable because it may be used by someone else in the next Disquiet Junto project, and then after that.
Tasks Upon Completion:
Label: Include “disquiet0636” (no spaces/quotes) in the name of your track.
Upload: Post your track to a public account (SoundCloud preferred but by no means required). It’s best to focus on one track, but if you post more than one, clarify which is the “main” rendition.
Share: Post your track and a description explanation at https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0636-left-1-of-3/
Discuss: Listen to and comment on the other tracks.
Additional Details:
Length: The length is up to you. Two to three minutes is best.
Deadline: Monday, March 11, 2024, 11:59pm (that is: just before midnight) wherever you are.
