Eventbrite w Earthwise

I have 11 shows on my books. I have had about 180 shows in my history with Eventbrite. All since 2018. (I’ve been producing shows since fall of ‘94 with roughly 500 in my history I lost count)

Numerous efforts have since continued to push the boundaries of recurrent language models and encoder-decoder architectures (38, 24, 15].
