reporting.
-
- Meeting
opens at 7:00 p.m. Ragnar and Sandy determine that they will
establish a production company tentatively called
Hemaphone Productions. The move is prompted by Sandy's
learning how to handle Garage Band, a program that makes
it possible to use the computer like a recording studio.
Ragnar, who had, until recently, not played in years, is
writing new material, first off a song called "Moonlight."
-
- Discussion
on the possibilities of "niche marketing," and how the Web
had shot juice into this concept. Sid Columbus wanders in
at about that time (uninvited) and proceeds to expound on
"Nietzchean marketing." Takes about fifteen minutes to
get him off the subject. Meeting continues.
-
- Target is twelve
recorded songs, possibly to be collected under the title,
Rat Songs.
-
- Talk
turns to a logo. Sid's enthusiasm is limitless on this point.
He'd
been to a reptile display recently and thought snakes
would be a good way to go. I point out that the
symbolism there might be a little more phallic than what
we're after. And that Sid's evening might be
better spent somewhere else, and that I'd be more than
happy to tell him - say tomorrow or the next day - how
things turn out.
-
- Sandy suggests a
sine wave (phone) with a drop of blood (hema). Sid
concedes this might work better than snakes. Ragnar has
just bought a set of movies by RKO producer Val Lewton,
and is anxious (desperate, even) to watch I Walked
with a Zombie. Meeting is adjourned.
