Hi there to all my family and friends,
"What did you do today?" one of my school mates asked me during the Senior Shows at School today. Well, since I'm not a senior yet (although I may feel like a senior citizen), I got to watch everyone else go crazy with the stress of installing their thesis shows. And then I got a wonderful invitation yesterday, and today during the show, I played a very special old piano. This piano has been reworked so that every key triggers a corresponding light or lights inside of a beautiful blown glass form. These forms were suspended in a wave form around the stage and up light in purple, blue and red. For nearly an hour, I played in my improv style and watched my music literally dance in the air around me.
Right now, I can only send this one photo, but I am hoping to have a video of this performance later this coming week. As soon as I have it I will post it. The sound will be ambient and as I said it was a very old piano so, it seemed quite interested in creating its own unique sounds in spite of my best efforts.
I would like to encourage everyone to see the remarkable work of this talented, new artist who shared his wonderful creation with me today. Please visit www.tomryderart.com
I hope you have a wonderful weekend and create something beautiful!
Jonathan
