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

Windeye in Development, and Recording Session with Andie Springer

I finished a draft of the violin/voice music that Andie Springer will be playing for the piece in development: Windeye

We will be recording the material in late February in NYC.

Windeye is a performance setting of a short story of the same name by Brian Evenson.  Prof. Evenson was kind enough to give me permission to use his text.  It will eventually be a piece that will take place in the Curtain Room installation setting, but Andie will be recording the music as a "suite" and I we will be producing a music video mixing this musical material with visual material relating to Evenson's story of a narrator who loses her sister under mysterious circumstances.  This music video will be distributed with Andie's album she's recording right now with a number of other fabulous composers and friends.  I'm honored to be taking part.

I'll post clips from our session when I get them.
