Music
- Melodious sounds,discordent sounds,plaintive,joyous,triumphant,contemplative,
aggrivating,stimulating,nostalgic,
and on and on.
Music,sound that travels through the ears
or bones by vibration from the pulse of our blood
generated by the beat of our heart
is and always has been a wonderful thing.
My attempt here was not to narrow the scope
by mentioning any one genre but to deal with it in a way that is understandable
by all who have breadthed its existence.
Life long favourites in clude Shostakovitch esp. #1 & #5 symph.s Bartok,Concerto forn Orch,#4th movement esp.Curt Weil,Charles Ives,Arron Copland,Gustav Holst,Berg,Arnold Bax,Vaughn-Williams and so many more make up the listening history of my life.

about me.
Since about 10 years old when feeling lost in a new land-Dublin Ireland to Montreal Canada- it became necessary to find some kind of self substantiation,so drawing seemed to fulfill that bill.It didn't actually,not then at least but by degrees as the years went on it became a comfortable place to go to.It had external bonuses too,some kind of recognition and it was static,unlike a great chef whose great meals die when they are consummed or those who ate them pass on, art visably and tangibly lives on. That's not always a good thing if one can be overwhelmed by what can be percieved as "failure".But the opposite can also be true, that is something that was good once and is still around is going to be good in the present and most important a stimulous to do more rewarding things.
Somewhere along the way a simple idea in a book on art struck me as interesting,i.e., that is the idea of doing a drawing a day,hence coining the term, 'Sketchadaybook',probably (apropriately enough in the


















"We have to embrace infinity inside a mortal body.
We have to believe in a God that we can’t see.
We have to learn to love in a dimension where there is so much hatred.
We have to see abundance when people constantly talk of shortages.
We have to discover freedom where control sometimes seems like the state religion.
We have to develop self-worth while people criticize and belittle us.
We have to see beauty where there is ugliness.
We have to embrace kindness and positive attitudes when surrounded by uncertainty."

I'm afraid I can't help you with the editing - Jackie said her daughter knows something about it so you might wanna check with her. Or post something in the Technical forum.
As for linking - there are linking codes under each individual video. You can either put links to the myspace page(s) in the ql forums or use the embed codes. If you need help with that, let me know.
