New-World Technology and Old-School Orchestration

Spent the morning with an extremely intelligent electronic music composer/computer programmer/entrepreneur named Eric Huffman, checking out this software he's developed that just might revolutionize incidental music -- here's his website (currently under construction)... I had to sign a non-disclosure agreement, so I can't say anything more about it... but he's excited about my work and I'm very excited about his technology -- hopefully we'll be collaborating together in the very near future...

Then spent the afternoon out on a deck in the sun, with large sheets of manuscript paper and a #2 pencil, orchestrating my newest piece for wind orchestra, "TranZendental Danse of Joi"... short of the ensemble I was writing for, and using a pencil instead of a quill, it doesn't get much more 18th century than that!
