MONUMENTS OF WONDER This newest incarnation of Music and Wonder begins with a focus on ambitious fictive modalities alone, a special emphasis on the Wonder. Music is everywhere. The constant listener finds the treasures.  Thanks for reading! Dixon Tower In which I discover robots have changed my story of the bro detectives. I have been working on this for 12 years now.
