I've made some headway on the videos - still 1 of the 4 left to complete. For now though, I'm going to take a break to get ready for Megan and Michelle's arrival for dinner and debriefing. They made this stellar piece of art. It chronicles our three years together and it brings tears of joy to my eyes. Thanks!

Still plugging away....

I'd really like more time to finish video work and paperwork!

Preliminary Video Passes

I've started going through the videos from the Light the Lamp show. Here are some still shots I pulled. In order - "Retrospect", "See Ya in the Funny Papers" and "Don't Hold Your Breath." (Jess Purviance - photography)

Okay, so the painting projects are going slow. Today I finished priming the bathroom walls, but still a lot to do there. I'd rather be hanging out with Pai.

Show's over but new adventures are just beginning

The Motor Dance show, "Light the Lamp" was April 18th. It's always amazing to me that after a show, there's still so much work left to do to wrap up the whole ordeal - thank you's to patrons, compiling video documentation for the show, balancing the books and then planning what to do next. Well, here it is - two weeks after the show - and I still have thank you's and video work to do. But this year, things are different. Planning what to do next is quite complex this time around. I have been accepted to the MFA Dance and Technology program at The Ohio State University. The Wexner Center has just offered me a Graduate Administrative Assistantship in their Youth Programs. This is extremely exciting! And all this begins this summer. I hope to be moving to Columbus in July - two short months away. I still have things to wrap up with Motor, but I also need to sell our house, pack and find housing and keep my day job going somehow. Lots going on!

In any case, I am striving to update my blog daily as a means to process all that's going on. We'll see how this goes!

See Ya in the Funny Papers - Video finished!

It is done!
Well, we'll see once we project it in the theatre.....
Can't wait!

Don't Hold Your Breath, still holding

The video is finished. There may be some tweaking once I see it projected Thursday, but the images are there and on a DVD, ready to go. Swoosh!
