i like the idea of working with people from other places.
i enjoyed working with most of the people involved in the project.
i think oudeis is a great idea that should become real.
>What is your (expected) compensation?
i'm in this for the experience and the joy of sharing ideas and work with
the team. if there is some money i expect to get my share, but that's
certainly not my main goal in this.
i have to apologize for dissappearing these last months. as soon as i
arrived back in BA there were lots of things to be taken care of. it seemed
to me oudeis was going thru one of its 'let's talk about it' stages, and
didn't have the time to participate.
i'd also like to express my opinion re some of kispro's/lee's statements.

i think gernot/karin are talking about lee's proposed script (the new one).
my opinion regarding this subject is that we should go back to the text
that was developed by Mon & Gernot based on quotes of Homer's book. maybe
this is none of my business, maybe not. i'm using homer for the songs
anyway.
>11) The following tasks have to be taken care of:
(...)
>local pruduction leading
there are some producers here interested in the project. athough i know
kispro will not be there any more, i need the video and printed material
(including any commitments by sponsors) from ARS.
>Finding of RL stages
BA may be one if the producers are interested. i guess they will be.
>Finding of a technical basis for4 lightcones, biosensors and musci
>Composing the music
if(musci = music)
{
the technical _basis_ for the music is already there. i know i've been
late in this but i'm sure the choros idea will work, and i will develop
the software (in Java) for that. i'd also like to stress that the music part
of the project is the only one that --in my opinion-- is settled and ready
to go. the concept is fixed and some of the songs have been written. i will
_try_ to finish the soft, but i'm not in a hurry. my big fear was not to
have the people to write it, but i've found i can do it myself. i hope Aaron
and/or Christian would like to check it and tell me how to make it better
(they are the real scientists... i'm not), but if they can't we will anyway
have something that works.
}
else
{
sorry.
}
>Creating a text
see above. i'd like to participate in this (if we are going to quote
Homer). i think Gernot and Mon were doing a great job with it, so i propose
them for this 'job', if they want to.
(...)
>12) Thereafter, rehearsals can take place
agreeeeee.
i hope i'll be there on the 23rd, if i'm not, nice holidays to everybody.
best,
santiago
