Pi

I was in Birmingham yesterday dropping off paintings for the forthcoming R.B.S.A. Spring Open. I await news of selection and/or rejection!

Today I've been working on the Pi project. Lots of progress. The music sounds strange, but also interesting. I suppose that is the nature of experimental music. I've been trying to stick to the subject, and although I'll be using a variety of instrumentation and production techniques, anything melodic will be pi and nothing else (in various number bases) and any irregular periods will be pi too. For those reasons I'm sure I'll finish the project before next Sunday.

I've sketched out a rough cover design; a heavy metal pi bending the diameter of a circle into a curve. All part of the process.
