First up, i just would like to tell the world how much i like peanut butter. I woke up saturday morning around 7am, had a student at 8 so got washed and spent half an hour listening to tchaik 5 and eating a peanut butter sandwich revelling in the fact that life doesnt get much better than that! Did I mention that I was still slightly drunk from the party we had the night before at Janes parents house.......
Check out this dude at the wheel. Tis Finn and here he is taking his new wheels for a burn.
Check these guys out, tura new music, I did a cool gig for them last night, on viola, in a sort of electronic chamber music style, non-linear structures for real-time interactive musical works, or in other words, a whole load of semi-organised noise. I was in three pieces, one of which was based on prime numbers, one on french impressionistic painting style I think, and this one, based on a multi-scoring , we were all given the same chart and had headphones with a laptop randomly telling us what section, part, style and speed to play, it was up to us to choose the articulation (pizz, con legno etc.) I had a great solo playing an a minor scale just using the wood and great big bow strokes perpendicular to the bridge so it sounded all squeaky and wierd, then followed it with an earthshatteringly loud bartok pizz, open C, THWAAAKKKeeeeeeeeeeeiiing i think is the technical term. Twas pretty cool, you can get a recording of it here for as long as it stays up.
Thats all to report from this week. Oh, we discovered a really cool polish resteraunt down teh road from our house, we were there a few times before, if you are in Perth, check them out.
