Projects. They are the things which keep us moving on the path towards whatever the fuck it is we’re looking for.
Currently:
A digital zine entitled ‘goofbang’, collecting art from artmakers around Australia, throwing them online and onto a CD, then leaving links and discs in strange locations for the general public to pickup and use/disuse. Issue ONE out by the end of the month, some sort of website to follow.
Several sound jobs for various shows at the VCA, two of which are by Molière;
Operating sound for a collection of 5 original dance pieces at the Gasworks Theatre in Albert Park starting in early June.
Sourcing and recording material for a production of Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, a couple of pieces can be heard below (neither of which are played by me, only recorded):
Creating an atmosphere track and sampling a bouncing ball for a production of The Learned Ladies. I’m really looking forward to creating an original piece for this show, however I’m having a heap of trouble getting in contact with the director and she won’t call me to discuss it.
Still missing playing in a band. Have great fun at Cicada practice, but its only once a week. Really want to start a doom/drone/noise project, now that I have hardware and time.
Listening: Eminem – Relapse (and I’m really unimpressed. My appeal to Eminem has always been that he wasn’t a generic rapper. Now he is.)
