Ok, if you are here to check out my lamps lanterns and chandeliers made from tin cans, click on the second slide show down, the one showing pictures of lanterns and me welding. If you're interested in booking me to play electric didgeridu at your event, you can check out an on-line demo by clicking on the slide show below, the one showing me playing the didge.
click on the image above to hear what I sound like live! This takes you to my Music Forte site to hear three live recordings, they're 10-15 min. each, too long for myspace. You can also get them on my new cd called "Live Electric Didgeridu" for $5 plus $3 s+h by writing to the address above.
I decided in 1997, that as an environmentalist I could no longer justify using something so environmentally destructive as "grid" electricity, for something so frivalous as art. Since then I've construced a modest solar powered studio for my music projects and create art in an "off the grid" studio from recycled packaging (tin cans mostly)
