Here is a documentary film I made with the help of
Ben Schreiner.
This is my attempt to combine my love of American Folk music with the baroque music I studied in college. I studied harpsichord at IU.
My music is hard to describe--it's best just to listen.
It's been said that my music sounds like a "scarry children's show."

A number of my songs are settings of the poetry of William Blake.

i wasn't meaning that directly, but now that you bring it up.. i love that song. they owned it so much i didn't realize at first it wasn't an original. also love their version of willie's 'sad songs and waltzes'...
Damn, I would have posted that video, but u don't do the html. Thanks for the musical memories. So pleasant on a warm summers day! Anyway, I posted that video on my videos. The one I took with my camera phone.
I think with the right camera this could be a really good video.
“Israeli forces used white phosphorus and other weapons supplied by the USA to carry out serious violations of international humanitarian law, including war crimes. Their attacks resulted in the death of hundreds of children and other civilians and massive destruction of homes and infrastructure. ” -Donatella Rovera, Amnesty International
Hey Aaron,<br />I discovered Ron Paul when I was living in Chicago through Alex Jones' radio program. Then, I saw him in some of the debates, and I was hooked since then. I even voted for Paul in the Florida primaries a year later. Now, I'm living in Switzerland and it amazes me how popular he is here among the political establishment and politically-active. A Congressman here has told me that he'd like to officially invite Ron to Switzerland as a State visit, but it's apparently quite difficult to get a hold of Paul. So, I gave the Congressman all of Paul's contact information and so forth. Also a pleasure to be your friend here on MySpace. I've followed your bulletins and videos for quite some time now. Always informative...<br />Stephan
A laundromat show sounds like the funnest thing ever. I'm arranging a house show for when Carlos' Adam Balboa friend comes out to play, but maybe I should try to get a laundromat instead. It would have to be 24-hours, yeah? yeah.
" You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police. Yet in their hearts there is unspoken - unspeakable! - fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts! Words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home, and all the more powerful because they are forbidden. These terrify them. A little mouse - a little tiny mouse! - of thought appears in the room and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic." -- Winston Churchill
aaron - hey look up the theater fire on myspace. i'm working with the trumpet player from that group. hopefully getting a show together for SXSW. we'll see! c yuh.
"Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle! Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will. Find out just what people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; and these will continue until they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress." --Frederick Douglass
