arbor vitae

now that i have set up a little audio studio up at work (for podcasting for one of my clients), the idea of recording songs there, say during lunch breaks, has presented itself as a low-cost way to finally get some of my songs on CD/MP3/whatever, and to get my music side of me back going again. i've had about 12 songs ready-to-go for several years, and some new chants i'd be interested in recording as a separate project... which is why i've enabled the "tip jar" feature on typepad's sidebar there, as a little way of helping this idea become a reality. i'm making no express promises, nor do your donations constitute a pre-order or whatever, but i'll just treat your pocket change as a vote-of-confidence for my going back in and laying down some audio tracks, and maybe emerging on the other side with some headphone space for your ears.
