What's up? I've spent the last couple of years working on a film that is due to come out by the end of 2025, it's called "No Evidence of Man" and I did both the score and the film sound. Keep your eye out for it, it's about a tech bro in San Fransisco that goes on a journey of self discovery after his girlfriend leaves him. I'll try to get an exact release date and platform, once I do, I'll let folks know here.
After two years of working on one film, I am happily spending most of my time and energy these days on my taiko group, Central Arkansas Taiko. I've done a bit of writing for them and have a bunch more planned over the winter. If you're in Arkansas, keep an eye out for us, we appear for various events all over the state. Most notably, we can be found each spring at the Sakurai Matsuri in Scott at the Plantation Agriculture Museum State Park, and at the Arkansas Cherry Blossom Festival each year in Hot Springs. We also do several other gigs each year, usually in the spring.

Current Projects - May 2018
Right now Slackers in Space is in a bit of hiatus as Lisa works on other projects, but I've got two feature films coming in, one this spring and one in summer. I'm also working on finally starting my own taiko group (yay paid film gigs = money for drums!) And surprise, I have a student! He's quite a talented young composer, I'm looking forward to hearing what's in his future. Lastly, I've got an idea for an opera spinning around in my head. I know a pretty good soprano who'd be willing to sing…
