Squish

Busy with new projects – creativity handbook, story, new music, plus decluttering the house (seems to be popular at the moment, who am I to fight fashion). Hope to put some new music up on archive.org soon. Really this is a nothing post – just letting you all know that I’m still around.

Flat out busy, as always

I’ve started work on a new album, generating some lovely lush new sounds.  Still not sure if it will be just a Venus Vulture album or a Sassere multi-media item with soundscape/writing/art/photography.  Leaning towards Sassere – I’ve got some nice new photos and writing ideas and it would be good to follow up forgotten trees with something.  I’ve come to the end of this round of marking – whew 58 portfolios to get through.  I’ve also just finished Jiang Rong’s novel Wolf Totem which I’ll be reviewing for the Christchurch Press.  Then on with another couple of writing projects too.

forgotten trees _is_ available

Looks like a little glitch on the website – the book and CD are now available.  I probably just mis-uploaded the refreshed page to the site.  I’ll get it sorted soon.  Meanwhile – just click here to buy. Little glitch on cafepress too – it looks like the spine of the book is showing instead of the cover.

Great News – Forgotten Trees as a book!

I had some poems I’d been working on and I’ve decided to make Forgotten trees into a three-level piece: music, graphics and text.  There will be a 100 page book of photos and poems to complement the CD.  Get both, read the book and look at the photos (which are new, not available electronically through the website) and listen to the music in the background (with a cup of herbal tea, perhaps).  Intended release date is April 19th – at the moment just working through a sizing problem with the CD tray insert.
