We haven’t written much for a while, which doesn’t mean we haven’t been doing anything….some Storyboards ’stuff’ bubbling away and some other ’stuff’ done wearing different hats, like a workshop at EIT and sorting out some process, some presentations at e-fest later this year and a paper or two about stories being written.

But this has become more informal and friends’ll have it RSS fed, so it’s a chance to mull over a great night in Wellington. What a charmer Chic Corea turned out to be. And yep. He told stories. He started to tell us stories about Monk but stopped. But he did tell us about his reverence for Monk and Ellington through his playing, and he told us about his grandchildren and the pieces he’d created about children. He told us about his love for his father when he played a piece from the 1940s then took us back to Monk again via Bill Evans. A fair sprinkling of Corea in there too. It was a pleasant, warm and at times very groovy evening. Nothing much digital but some great stories.

And so. Perhaps we’ll get back to more musings. Soon.
