HERE ON TOUR: Metropolitan Museum of Art
NEW YORK CITY! What a joy it was to return. I felt that I could once again breathe; there was oxygen in my lungs! As I walked the street people did not stare at me as they do in Middle America, ogling in what I can only guess to be a mix of awe and horror. To fit within the fabric of the cityscape, and blend in without altering who I am, gave me a profound sense of joy. https://nilesluther.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Results-for-feb-2023-1-of-2-HDR.mp4?height=200&width=200&autoplay=true&lo...

HERE ON TOUR: Baltimore Museum of Art & Walters Art Museum
Baltimore, where do I start! I’m on the flight back to New York as I write this, entering a three week break while the tour goes to Chicago. I’m officially overwhelmed with the amount of paintings I have selected for the collection; for the last eight paintings I have composed nothing as of yet. These selected works did not arise from eight separate cities… no, instead of abiding by my arbitrary and now defunct rule of selecting one painting per museum per city, I have chosen multiple paintin...

HERE ON TOUR: The Mint Museum
What a whirlwind of emotion this past week. I wish to share, but my main thought right now as I type is that it’s hard to write genuinely knowing these journal entries will be pressed to the blockchain and publicized in perpetuity. Daunting. I guess the solution in the face of that is to just be sincere. If my vision manifests and art music succeeds I imagine these entries will be read and studied in the way that Brahms’ or Schumann’s letters were. It’s reassuring to know that I can’t be emba...
