So yeah...here we are agian. I am going to try and get work at the Zoo today. I will attempt to cater. I know there is a joke about feeding the animals or something in there but it is 9am and my funny hat is not on yet. Something occured to me recently. That people talk with an audience in mind. Always. You have to assume that you know your audience and it is only through alot of first hand experience that you can overcome the narrowness of your expectations. When I play a show....hee hee I just wrote "When I play a shoe"......there is an audience that exists in my mind and 99% of the time it is right in front of me. Mostly white, mostly young, mostly men. strange. Point? Point: how does one play for a greater audience...not bigger in reality but bigger in your head. Like little village living girls from Cambodia? Probably not too many into Free Improvisation the way it manifests itself in Portland OR. Yet they should be. Access is universal in the real artists. context is important but there is a universal context that I am aiming for. 1000hz is still 1000hz if you are in Mollala or Botswana. more to think about for later...
