2013 release. Saitensack is the first-ever release for Darmstadt-based composer Hans Essel who has been active in improvised music and Grundlagenmusik (foundational music) for more than 20 years. The album showcases his project Saitensack (string-bag) in which he develops new ways of playing the violin and viola. Comparisons could be drawn to other experimental violinists like Tony Conrad and Takehisa Kosugi but Hans Essel uses a far more stripped-down approach: The instruments are neither modified nor amplified. Strings are not pressed by fingers but rather damped. Only through bowing, they are excited to complex free vibrations, sometimes harsh and noisy, at other times reminiscent of uilleann pipes with cracking and breaking like in yodeling. Saitensack focuses on the origin of tones out of the noise, zooming into the very character of string instruments. Saitensack is pure violin - the essence of violin playing. Side A features an overtone-rich performance from 1994. Side B has a harsher 1999 recording: 24 minutes of pure violin noise bliss. Edition of 500. Includes printed inner sleeve featuring a Saitensack discussion transcript.
Tracks:
1.1 December 10, 1994 at Festival Experimentelle Musik, Munich
2.1 November 26, 1999 at Kunstfabrik, Arheilgen

Unlocking Practical AI: A Developer’s Guide to Building with LLMs and LangChain
Format: Paperback
If you're a developer eager to move beyond LLM experimentation and build robust, context-aware AI applications, this book offers both inspiration and practical guidance. The authors open with a clear passion for the transformative potential of large language models (LLMs) and LangChain, framing these technologies as not just enhancements to the developer’s toolkit, but as gateways to new kinds of “thing-building” superpowers. This sense of possibility is grounded in step-by-step instruction, making the book approachable for those with Python or JavaScript backgrounds who may be new to the world of production-grade AI agents.
What stands out is the book’s careful scaffolding: starting with foundational concepts like prompt-based programming and progressing to advanced capabilities such as retrieval-augmented generation, agent planning, and tool integration. Each stage is contextualized with real-world use cases, like customizing chatbots to interact with your own documents, personalizing user experiences through memory, and deploying to production with reliability and security in mind. The focus on chain-of-thought reasoning and LangGraph’s agent architecture demonstrates the authors’ awareness of the current state of AI, where context and planning are just as important as raw language ability.

Excellent Handbook
Format: Paperback
What got my interest in this book is the author. He's well-known as a leader in the LangChain world. And his book did not disappoint. It goes through the whole life cycle of development and there is a lot useful insights. If you are looking to build real-world genAI/agentic apps, then this book is certainly a great choice.
