East to West



The cherry trees are dropping blossoms on the streets of Kitsilano, and on the island it smells like summer. I screened Overland last night at the Duncan Garage Showroom, tacked on the bill yet again with Paper Beat Scissors. Check out one of Tim's new songs in the vid above. Sadly, I ran out of memory before he finished the song, but it's a beautiful listen anyway. Many thanks to him for inviting us to screen at his shows in Winnipeg and Duncan. As it turned out, we took a couple train legs together, from Toronto to Winnipeg, and from Saskatoon to Vancouver, so I got to catch his show a few times on this tour. Good luck with the rest of your tour Tim! I'm kicking around Vanisle and Vancouver for a bit, and will be showing Overland and getting feedback from Karissa next week, after which I'll feel fully ready to hit the editing studio again to cut the full film. Thanks to everyone who has helped me with this process, I've learned so much in such a short time. 

It's time to turn a bit of attention to the Fragmented/Fused video series for Freed the Puppet, and I have a couple sessions in a green screen studio in Vancouver with Karissa coming up, and a blue screen shoot with Alex in Winnipeg in early May. I'm making a brief stop in Saskatoon on the way back to MB, for the monthly jam with the crew at Free Flow Dance! I'm super excited for it, screenings are a very passive performance, and I'm looking forward to a more active art engagement. It feels like forever since I participated in a fab jam!
