The disimbodied voice
Thinking about it at lunch, walking back from the Analfoni book fair, The lecture down the telephone seems to have the same twang as the audio stuff that rich played for me the other day at his house. His recordings where made by an American and man they where funny, I mean really funny. Anyway it got me thinking, I saw Sarah and Tom at the book fair and there was a good vibe there, its strange but I always seem to tell people what I am about to do!! Not what I am doing, Its always the germ of the idea, But it could be that this is what gives the idea a cold? Anyway I saw Imi at the Fair as well and agreed to meet her after work. It was great to see her and she gave me a big hug once she saw me standing there. This American idea and the tapes that rich played me, is perhaps the way to go, To call up American's? Maybe its their enthusiasm?
