snapshot

as always on mondays i'm a little short on sleep, spent a very obsessive hour and a half last night going through all the pictures i've ever taken on my camera and finding new ones to put on my desktop... the camera which i left at producer G's on friday and this is the kind of activity that is indicative of being without it... i hope that makes sense...

spelling is nowhere today...

i just taught a workshop for new students here @ londonbridgework, they come in for interviews this week and have this workshop with me first... i always love it, seeing new faces, reaching into energy of the piece that i teach (now time for unification now time), the future that is in that room...

then now i'm waiting for a student so i can go through her composition with her, while at the same time working through in my head how i'm going to teach my afternoon class (first year teaching students), using clapping music by steve reich, i do enjoy thinking like this, taking the way i was going to teach this and swapping it around, placing the emphasis in a slightly different way... somehow still feeding off the energy of the morning workshop...

and at the same time i'm working out my hectic timetable for schools visits, the second year teaching students are out on placements in primary & secondary schools and i split the visits with another teacher, the madness of it all, getting from school to school, briefly existing in the culture of whichever school it is, and each school culture is so different...

i'm liking the mixture of past & future in this present time...

just a thought x
