It seems that my life has been usurped by lighthousetriketour.blogspot.com, my other blog outlining my pending trip around Florida as I visit all 30 lighthouses this summer. It has taken months to organize everything and I still don't feel that I have a strong handle on all the details. Suffice it to say that, ready or not, I start this full throttle in three weeks.
This involves deep kimchee since I am producing a multi-episode webcast documentary of the entire trip once it is completed. I want to be able to do 20-minute segments of the trip showing the highlights of the ride and the lighthouses. When the whole thing has aired, then I plan on making it available on DVD. One of the elements of the trip is that I want to compose a theme for each lighthouse that captures what each one felt like when I visited it. This set of music will eventually end up as a CD release when completed. I am also soliciting music from other Florida musicians for the documentary and, hopefully, will be able to offer it as well.
My brother Jay and I are kind of taking a short hiatus from our project together simply because I'm dropping the ball. The Barn is having air-conditioning problems (again) and until it is sorted out it is impossible to record in the building. However, we both have been working with Dr. Cor Mulhern (whom past readers may know is not only our aunt, but a hypnotherapist whom I've produced in the past.) She is currently retired, but has written a small book entitled "Parable of the Cats" that we are editing and prepping for print. More on that when we get closer to the publication date.
I did get to do sound production again for North Port High School's musical, which this year was the extremely difficult "Into The Woods" by Stephen Sondheim. A great production that was a challenge to get right since there were so many mikes and so many singers.
In any event, if it seems a little quiet here, just check out the other blog in my life...I'm sure I'll be there.
