Why I Didn’t Watch The Academy Awards

February 27th, 2005 § 0 comments

It’s late Sunday night and no, I’m not making a political statement. I just honestly forgot they were on until I read some fellow Pixarian blogs. I was far too engrossed in my latest project, which involves a musical commission. After finally realising that music notation software is quite a lot simpler than pencil and ink on paper, I made much progress since I started on Thursday, as evidenced by the following excerpt. Think about the kind of music I listen to if you want a hint on identifying it.

Music for two cellos

I promise I’ll go into more details about this soon since what’s involved are a perfect confluence of everything I find interesting in life: music, software, friends, and utterly baroque processes linking them all.

In the meantime, congratulations to everyone involved in The Incredibles for our two new shiny gold statuettes. Also, it’s late notice but I should mention that Wayne and I will be giving a talk Wednesday evening at the Linux Movies Group. Apparently no charge or reservations necessary, so if you’re in L.A and want to hear me blather about PRMan drop by. I promise not to work in too many digs about programming on Linux. I guess I should stop procrastinating and start working on that presentation.
