I've designated this place to put works in progress (media samples) along with a few choice selections of half-baked thoughts, schemes, questions, etc. Everything here is unfinished or unstarted and open to develop or die as the fates allow. Comments are welcome and appreciated. Thanks! jr

meeting with author Brian Evenson

Had a pleasant discussion with author and Brown U. writing Professor Brian Evenson about the influence his collection of short stories Windeye, and in particular the title story, has on themes of fading memories,  false memories, and the momentary confluence of different planes of reality that I have been working with recently.  This includes the work I have been doing on the further development of the Curtain Room installation, and the music I am writing for Andie Springer's upcoming audio/visual album.  I'm hoping the projects will combine, probably next spring/summer, into an installation and performance setting of the Curtain Room in which Andie will perform.  Prof. Evenson allowed me to some text from his work for the voice/violin music I am working on for Andie.  I will continue to work closely with him to make sure my use of his work is properly credited/attributed as this rather amorphous project develops.
