Pics from her Harvard Square neighborhood and Townhouse, Summer 2007.

            An old dog learning new tricks, I was born during World War II in Washington DC where I finished K, 1st and 2nd grades at the Sidwell Friends School. A class trip to the local Wonder Bread factory - a fantasmagoric assembly line in a huge space - made a lasting impression on me. The year was 1946 or 1947. After that I volleyed between Paris, France and DC attending secondary schools both French and American until college in Cambridge MA in the USA, where I have mostly lived since. Lately my life has consistently been amazing. So I am taking this late in life opportunity to show and tell.

            At the turn of the century I started to write music. I had played 'cello in the Tanglewood Student Orchestra in college. Then between 1983 and 2003 played in community Symphonies and amateur string quartets, During a daily stint on Tabla Drums for five years when my son was little I learned North Indian drum songs. During the 60's I was an architect with a short reprise during the 80's.

FLASHBACK to October 1968
Living on the same block: Athens Terrace Cambridge

             In late 1999 I took an electronic music class at the Longy School of Music with Kurt Stallman, Joshua Skaller, Neal Farwell. Jeremy van Buskirk helped me set up some Desktop gear. A little drummer now has an axe.

As to the snapshots, film clips and wmvs, someone handed me a digital camera before my second trip to Hawaii in October 2002. After that, I took pictures and clips on my daily rounds whether to Maui and back or around my home town[s]. Then I soundtrack most of my music with video - "Realites"-style sets of still pictures and film clips - that chronicle some of the sights that crossed my path during the new Millennium Noughties.
