Sort of work...

Although I've so wanted to write new poetry in the last few weeks, and believe me I've tried mightily, I've not been able to come up with anything of substance... so I've been in the process of recording what I already have.

This may sound like a simple process... just record using irecorderdoodad and export to imusicthingy or iplaylistdoohinky. But being the person I am, it is NOT that simple. I have to have a music track to go over top of the poem, something repetative and soothing, or energizing and exciting, or dark and brooding... in otherwords, I have to figure out whether to record something through a guitar or pick and modify loops. Loops are winning out so far because they modify better and cut easier, and fit more tightly with the poem.

That said, I have at the moment about 20 or so minutes of poetry, original music stuff, etc.

Poems I have recorded so far
maybe this time... (the day the robots came to get me)
reverse dexterity
on rumination and/or writing
gone home

Songs I have used so far
Cityscape
Dancing (both as poetry track and stand alone)
Suspended (longer version)
Gregorian Jazz
Undecided
Whatzit

New song I'm working on
The Day the Robots came to get me (oh yes... I'm getting a grammy for this one)

Poems I might be working on soon...
carpe diem
grocery store shopping sucks
all that matters... (the problem with having a sinkhole in the front yard...)
The 'reau
The Relatives

Hmm... perhaps I should be working on actual school stuff instead of this... but maybe not.

A+
