song, where are you?

The Monastery of Tibães 14th July 2009: photo courtesy of Eduardo Brito

In July 2009 I was very fortunate to start an Artistic Residency in the Monastery of Tibães. I will be there until Spring 2010 at least, working steadily on my new album, and several other ideas that orbit around the album itself. This will include photography and film, performance and art installation – all kinds of stuff.

I will be having a lot of friends around helping out with recording, and playing instruments, taking the photos and filming and stuff. So this blog will serve as a document of all things monastic – my reflections and thoughts about the residency, and the work in general. It may include ruminations about creativity itself – but all of this is meant to be a conversation really. So please come around, read, praise, cajole me, and get involved in this magical wee (virtual) world I’m creating. You never know, it might lead to tea in the (real) cloisters one day.
