coos on skye Originally uploaded by inningMy pals the pipers were this summer in Scotland. This video -- not their first, but the first I've seen them edit and chip away at -- represents a grand step in storytelling. Lovely to see the highland cattle and Isle of Skye. Hope Paula will soon say what the music here is. Glad to have Paula & Charlie making remnants of their lives to share. Richer for it.

For the first 3 years I lived here there was a rooster kept me company in the mornings. He disappeared for the entirety of year four, but now he s back. If you listen carefully, you can hear him throughout my reading of Lady Chatterley s Lover and now, again, behind Washington Square too. Welcome back, Mr. Rooster.Recorded the audio with the iPhone.

SITA SINGS THE BLUES Distribution Project Report ?If it?s free, how do you make money?? 5 months after the Creative Commons Share Alike release of her animated musical feature Sita Sings the Blues, Nina Paley presents the first round of hard data from the project. Contrary to MPAA propaganda, the more the audience freely shares the film, the more they purchase DVDs, theater admissions, and merchandise; witness the $$ numbers that prove it. Nina Paley is the creator of the animated musical feature film Sita Sings the Blues, which has screened in over 150 film festivals and won over 30 international awards including the Annecy Grand Crystal, The IFFLA Grand Jury Prize, and a Gotham Award. Her adventures in our broken copyright system led her to Copyleft her film, and join QuestionCopyright.org as Artist-in-Residence. She teaches at Parsons School of Design and is a 2006 Guggenheim Fellow. www.sitasingstheblues.comFormats available: Quicktime (.mov), MP3 Audio (.mp3), Flash Video (.flv)Tags: nina paley, diydays, fhta, workbook project, sita sings the blues, copyright

Have begun to read a new, free, public domain audio book over at UrbanArtAdventures. This will be an easier project than "Lady Chatterley's Lover" since the chapters are shorter and manageable in a quick hour or so.
