RSAMD Opera School
In 45 minutes at lunchtime on Thursday I managed to record an improvisation for melodica and delays: perhaps listening to Robert Fripp's Exposure in the car rubbed off on me. If I can do another mix that's not almost mono like the first one, I'll post it up on myspace - instant music.
Then yesterday's afternoon work avoidance strategy was to climb a ladder with a pair of loppers and chop down the canopy of a conifer that was keeping lots of light out of one corner of the garden. This must be what it's like to be a writer, constantly finding new methods of procrastination as deadlines approach. Still, I got my paper written in the end.
