I really like the idea of these... "alien playdates"? So here are harvesters hanging out with other not-quite-ungulate creatures, @jayrockin's centaurs and @charseraph's crowns!
Harvesters would probably find centaurs similar enough to perceive them as whatever the harvester equivalent of "humanoid" is, but also kinda... subconsciously intimidating? They'd probably feel calmer around crowns (also bonus points since crowns could theoretically speak some harvester languages with relative success!).

Author’s note below…
Apologies for the delay for the like three people who might care hahaha love you guys
Anyway, I just wanted to note that I’m using my story, Harvesters, as an experimental way to mess with a traditionally drawn comic. But this is by no means the high quality shit they do in the industry hahaha
So there’s a lot of imperfections, but I’m a dirt-poor college student, so I want my art (my finger-flute-on-cave-walls-kinda deal) to reflect this time in my life. So I’m honestly working with a lot of scrap I’ve picked up from school, trash cans, and shit I’ve had stashed away since I was in grade school.
This is to say, if that’s your style (cuz I think it’s kinda cool) I hope you stick with me!!
Later!

Dave Rempis Percussion Quartet — Harvesters (Aerophonic)
Tumblr media
Harvesters by Rempis Percussion Quartet
Saxophonist Dave Rempis is joined on Harvesters by bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten and two drummers, Tim Daisy and Frank Rosaly. The group last recorded in 2013, and the double CD is from their first tour of France in March 2023, a live evening at Le Petit Faucheux in Tours (The English translation of the venue’s name is “Little Daddy Long Legs”—Harvester is another name for the spider). Rempis and company spent a week visiting five venues in France. The set from Tours, their first night in the country, is extraordinary music-making.
Two pieces are on the first CD. “Everything Happens to You” is a half-hour long piece that presents an interesting reversal. It begins with trills and shrieks, out of which, after considerable free improv, a tune emerges. This setup is the opposite of traditional jazz performances, where the tune begins the proceedings to be followed by solos. The drummers create a welter of polyrhythms, rather than interlocking, complementing and responding to each other. Listening again, one can find scraps of the melody that eventually appears: Crafty construction and passionate execution.
Trumpeter Jean-Luc Cappozzo guests on “The Exuberant Aubergine,” playing high, breathy, glissandos while Rempis once again plays fleet trills. It is a slow tempo piece that is also a slow burner. The percussionists, for the most part, keep their powder and the dynamic level low. Cappozzo unfurls a wide-ranging solo and Rempis responds with bent notes and high glissandos of his own. Håker Flaten contextualizes the harmony with scalar passages and chromatic passagework. Cappozzo and Rempis trade riffs, sometimes imitating one another and at others doing their own thing. Duet becomes a trio with bass notes double-timing, moving through all the registers of the instrument. Solos are exchanged in the next section, with the percussionists pressing the action with muscular playing. Midway through, the surface calms, bass notes repeated instead of the previous scalar movement, misterioso melodies from trumpet and saxophone, and a general slowing down. Pops, clicks and slurps from the winds are responded to by accentuations in the percussion. A gradual accelerando and the return of Rempis’ trills signal a return to the demeanor of the opening volleys. The intensity ratchets up, with the drummers becoming more prominent than the winds, despite their altissimo held notes. Once again, riffs are traded, with a call and response between Rempis and Cappozzo responded to by intense playing from the rhythm section. The conclusion sees the drums move back to a simmer, the bass playing repeated notes against a decrescendo by the winds. Exuberant indeed.
CD 2 chronicles the second set. “Spooky Action” begins with a drum duet that introduces a syncopated rhythmic pattern. Rempis is buoyed by the drumming to soaring solos. Håker Flaten adds yet another layer of metric ambiguity. The rhythm section maintains its energetic performance, Rempis exploring and melding various melodic cells of material, creating flurries of ostinatos. Once again, a soulful melody is saved for late in the piece. At the last, the drums drop out, the bass plays repeated pitches, and Rempis builds the repeating patterns into a caterwauling climax, with the percussionists only then edging back in. Rempis concludes with a bluesy cadenza, punctuated by aphoristic gestures from the other players.
“Little Fascists” begins with Cagean percussion improv. Rempis enters similarly, with disjunct riffs and rasping, sustained pitches. He then builds overtones with perfectly tuned harmonics. Håker Flaten contributes a long high register arco trill, adding to the sense of experimentation. Rempis adds keening wails at the end of the piece. While the free jazz blowing on other tunes is exciting, “Little Fascists” has a distinctive sound world that is fascinating.
The final tune, “Fat Lip” opens with a bass solo in which harmonics are juxtaposed against a pizzicato solo that ranges the whole instrument. Håker Flaten has been a keen collaborator throughout the concert, and his solo brings this style to the fore. Rempis joins him with an undulating melody that begins brawny and slow and proceeds to mercurial runs. The drummers alternate between pulsation and freely constructed fills. Rempis returns to his mid-register melody, embellished with quick scales. The saxophonist savors an intervallic sequence, tweaking it here and there with half step variations. His solo quickens and takes up a stentorian tone. The rest of the group recognizes his intentions, pressing forward and creating a sweltering density. With raucous howls and undulating lines, Rempis fragments “Fat Lip’s” melodic contours. He eventually settles on two short riffs, that he repeats as the drummers add still more fills and Håker Flaten plays a modal ostinato. The conclusion is a decrescendo with a sizzle of cymbal at the end.
One hopes that more of the France tour might be committed to disc. This is Aerophonic’s tenth anniversary, and there are few better ways to celebrate than more of Rempis’s Percussion Quartet.

SOME OF OUR FAVORITE SOLD PAINTINGS - NEXT:
GEORGES FRANÇOIS P. LAUGÉE
(1853 - 1937)
Le Gouter
Oil on canvas
32 x 26 inches
Signed
https://rehs.com/Georges_Fran%C3%A7ois_P_Laug%C3%A9e_Le_Gouter.html
Georges François P. Laugée (1853-1937) was a French painter known for his naturalistic depictions of rural life. "Le Gouter" is one such painting that depicts a mother and her children taking a break in a wheatfield.
The painting shows a peaceful and idyllic scene of a mother, who is seen cutting a large loaf of bread, and her children surrounded by the golden colors of the ripe wheat.
In the background, a man can be seen walking towards the family. This could be the father or another family member returning from work or perhaps a friendly passerby. The painting captures the simple joys of rural life, where the family is connected to the land and each other.
Laugée's use of light and color in "Le Gouter" is particularly noteworthy. The warm tones of the wheatfield contrast beautifully with the blue sky and white clouds above. The painting exudes a sense of calm and serenity, inviting the viewer to take a moment and appreciate the beauty of nature and the joys of simple living.

"INDIAN FOR THE "PEN"," Kingston Daily Standard. October 15, 1913. Page 2. ---- He Will Make Third Red Man Now in Confinement. ---- Joseph Brant, aged 24 years, an Indian from the Tyendinaga Reserve, was on Tuesday sentenced by Magistrate Masson, at Belleville, to three years in the Portsmouth penitentiary, after conviction of theft after midnight of a purse containing $45 and two transportation tickets worth $50 from an Italian. The money was discovered in Brant's sock, and the tickets lie somewhere between Belleville and Trenton on the Grand Trunk right-of-way.
Brant and his cousin were coming home to Tyendinaga after spending the harvest season in Saskatchewan. They got on the train No. 8, and between Belleville and Trenton got into the car, where an Italian, Giachini Villani was. They sat in along with him. Villani was asleep. Brant says he was intoxicated. When he wakened up he found his purse, tickets and a bottle of liquor gone.
There are already two Indians doing time in the big penitentiary, and according to the authorities they are model prisoners when kept busy. They take their confinement with the natural stoicism of their race and give but little trouble, performing their alloted tasks with care seldom needing correction or discipline.
[Brant was 24, a boiler operator and coal heaver in the winters and a harvester during the fall season, had no previous record. He was convict #F-663 and worked in the coal and wood gang. He was never reported, and was paroled in late 1915.]

for anyone too young to know this: watching The Truman Show is a vastly different experience now, compared to how it was before youtube and social media influencers became normal
before it was like, "what a horrifying thing to do to a human being! to take away their autonomy and privacy, all for the sake of profits! to create fake scenarios for them to react to, just to retain viewership! to ruin their happiness just so some corporate entity could harvest money from their very humanity! how could anyone do something so evil?"
and now it's like, "ah, yeah. this is still deeply fucked up, but it's pretty much what every influencer has been doing to their kids for a decade now. probably bad that we've normalized this experience"

Some species from the harvester homeplanet (rather uncreatively named since their names in harvester languages are unpronounceable to humans). More info under the cut!
Spiderdogs are harvesters' former primary predators. Using coordinated team strategies, they are able to trap their prey and bite it, injecting venomous saliva that acts as an anticoagulant, and then follow the prey until it passes out from infection or blood loss. The antibacterial properties of harvesters' bodily fluids and the thickness of their blood evolved in part as a protection against spiderdog bites.
Spiderdogs are a popular image in harvester culture, although they're mostly just treated as interesting wild animals. Attempts to domesticate spiderdogs have failed, since they seem to have little understanding for behavioral cues of species other than their own, and are often aggressive towards harvesters.
Cavyshrimps are harvesters' livestock animals, domesticated and bred for the leather and the plates on their back, and, to a lesser extent, meat (there are different breeds of cavyshrimps according to their purpose, although it should be noted that harvesters don't make use of animal agriculture to the extent humans do). They're docile, slow-moving herbivores that rely on their sensitive whiskers and smell to get around. Their eyesight is poor, and they cannot turn their heads around due to the way their skeletons are built, so they have eyestalk-like structures to compensate.
Burrowgreens are relatives of cavyshrimps, burrowing animals with a diet of mostly root and tubers. Harvesters frequently treat them as pests for several reasons: they have a tendency to ruin harvester crops and gardens while looking for food, they have annoyingly loud courtship calls, and harvesters who do excavation work in areas where burrowgreens live have to watch out for their eggs: although burrowgreen clutches may appear deceptively large, some of the eggs are actually fake ones, and release toxins into the air if the shell is damaged. The toxins are highly irritating to the ''nostrils'' and eyes, but do not pose any serious danger, making playing with burrowgreen eggs a common game of chance for risk-seeking harvester youths.
