Da future of Katharsisdrill

For the people who follows me (thanks to all 4 of you) it is no secret that I have had some rather long breaks in the free-culture-goodness-project. So now that I have sort of returned I am behind with everything because my get-ideas-and-start-project machine was left on the whole time.

Last year I worked on some animation sequences for a documentary film called Boiler Alert (see here:

And after an intens month and a bit of doing others bidding, I decided to make my own animation film...

Preliminary still from the film

Ye... stupid... I know.

I intend to begin for real in August. See if I can get some money for two actors a flutist and some sound facilities. Until now I have mainly made some music and a lot of technical experiments - here's the opening song.

So, this is not creative commons yet, but a working file. You are welcome to keep it if you like as everything I do is for free, but this is mainly just to let you know a bit about what I have been doing all that off-grid time. There will be a better version later.

There's much more of course. A piece of jewellery, a wordless comic that I need to finish, more comics about Helen and Phill, more music... Sigh.

I have been following you for a long time and you have created something special for all of us and we are still thinking about it. Clean water has a very special importance in the life of all of us, but still not everyone is getting clean water.

Thanks. Not sure I get the part about the clean water. Sibelius said: "Whereas most other modern composers are engaged in manufacturing cocktails of every hue and description, I offer the public cold spring water." :) If that the meaning I am flattered.

Thanks for the explanation of your off grid time. I sure missed you, and news of all of your projects.

Is that piece of jewelry made by the lost wax technique by any chance?

Phill!

I can't say that music is anything I'll want to listen to on the reg. Where's the flute?

It is indeed and with the expertise of my wife and my brother it is close to being ready.

There is many types of music I have been working with. The flute is in a long piece for strings, flute, harp, bells and Marimba. I have it written as a score only haven't finished the last section. The strings, the Marimba, the harp and the bells I will make on computer, but the flute is easier to record and I know one who can play the part.

I might make a post with the unfinished (synthetic) music.

I hope you do!

Do you remember that I would like one of those silver medallions? It's been years since you wrote about it. I even asked your brother about it via email back in that day.

I do now :)

The master has been made by my wife, and it is more or less ready to go into production. I'll take some photos of it and make a post. I plan to do a Kickstarter in August. When I tried to do it over summer with Ifeanyi's book it was a bit of a catastrophe as people on the northern part of the northern hemisphere are having holidays and are intoxicated by sun, alcohol and the sudden lack of protestant work ethics.

Hm. I don't remember getting a kickstarter notice for his book, but I did get the book. It was pretty good! Your drawings got his content perfectly for me. I tend not to look at illustrations in books for long, but yours I wanted to examine for all the nuances. I once got a kickstarter for something of your brother's.
