do you speak Loxian?

September 20, 2007

Perhaps not since there are only two known users, Enya and Roma Ryan. Ryan cobbled together the language from various sources including Elvish, Hindi and Siberian Yupik.

listening to The Lama’s Chants

May 16, 2007

listening to Enya

January 3, 2007

We lost my mom on the 29th, and I’m putting together the soundtrack for the slide show that will run in the background during her service Friday morning.

This is developing into one of the most difficult things I’ve ever had to do.

It is almost unbearable to run through the music (which includes Bach, Tavener and Brian Eno), but while I am cropping and otherwise processing the photographs, Enya is about the only thing I can listen to today.
