Foccacia in the oven

I've been flipping through Tori Amos "Piece by piece" again. The art of composition, my favorite chapter. I think I need to keep reading to sustain my work right now. So many things happening at once around me. And once again, the technical aspect of music has to bug me. Now, I can't get any sound to come out of the computer. Sounds strange to you? Well, to me too.

Oh well.
The latest big story in the news have been circulating in my head, is it cynical to draw inspiration from it? Or not... not inspiration - that word has to many positive associations. It's more... trying to deal with it, trying to come to terms or to the extent that you can, understand it. Get your mind to focus on the fact, that what has happened is reality. Not fiction. Not a dream. It's real. Bu

So, the theme is very etheral (in a way). Really it started as a melody, a real crisp and tender one. Combined with the horror, it becomes very... for me, evocative. And I think I need that right now. Because it is easy, I've always had a way to block out certain feelings, to set this story and the people behind it aside. Move on. And that has to be done to. But still, I keep thinking - that for once we have to learn from this. A persons is known for similiar crimes but still roaming free. Something needs to be done. Something.

Ok, not a very cheerful post. But that is what I'm currently working on, I will post material - well as said before - as soon as I can figure out how to work these... these... machines.
