From publisher Michael Eisenberg:

I want to sincerly thank you Duncan for submitting these two pieces to the Acousmatic Crossings series. The second one, “Spores” will be forthcoming later in the year. Both of these pieces have gone a long way in my developing a much greater appreciation for “noise” as music, and also for something deeper. The weird naturalism of their (and the sounds themselves) genesis is like icing on the cake making an imaginal journey a truly unusual and unique experience. My listening to them has been 100% through a decently high end pair of headphones and it’s really something to behold!

Summer by the Sea: Cottages from Watch Hill to Little Compton includes Dragonline Studio. With the studio having changed hands to new owners in 2025, this is an excellent remembrance of the amazing creativity that experienced at the site over the years.

A third installment of Duncan's writing is up on Metapsychosis. This part focuses on tuning into nature signals and working with them to create sonic and visual art.

A second installment of Duncan's writing is up on Metapsychosis. This part focuses on paleolithic cupules and stone mark-making.

Duncan has new writing up on Metapsychosis. It is a wide ranging piece kicked off by Brian George, whom Duncan had first met at a Boston Visionary Cell event in 1994. A recent collaboration with Brian's imagery created in a "waking dream" state resulted in the pieces pictured above.
