“Kisah Lelly Sang Pengulik dan Laskar Penyelamat Bumi” (Director Joaquim Baeta)
My tune “The Chaff Can Catch the Light” shows up in Joaquim Baeta‘s short Kisah Lelly Sang Pengulik dan Laskar Penyelamat Bumi.
About the Film, from Internet Archive:
In ‘Kisah Lelly Sang Pengulik dan Laskar Penyelamat Bumi’ (Lelly the Investigator and the Wayfaring Rangers of the Enigmatic Earth), we are introduced to a mysterious figure (Lelly), who works in the dark depths of a university building, and her army of soldiers (students), commissioned to protect and save the Earth. These young warriors discuss their approaches, while their leader reveals how she deploys her various kinds of carrots and (drum)sticks to motivate and encourage them. Will she succeed in her mission? I have no idea.
Silliness aside, this short film melds an introduction (in Bahasa Indonesia) to Lelly and the work of her students, along with the accoutrements that encompass being her supervisee, including her so-called 24-hour service, life-time consultation, and ‘free gym,’ all with humourous terms and conditions. Meanwhile, the work described runs the gamut of her expertise: plant and wildlife ecology, the intersections of humans and nature, and habitat modelling.

New Album: Six After Ten
September 26th, 2024 was the 10th anniversary of my lesson studio at Boomer Music Company in Fort Collins. To mark the occasion, I recorded this improvisation that week in my lesson room on my usual teaching gear: workhorse instruments, practice amps, and a recording app on my business phone.
The two sessions have been edited slightly for time and there’s some studio reverb added for depth, otherwise it’s an accurate documentation of my typical noodlings while waiting to teach.
Give it a listen on CD or the music service of your choice, and thanks for listening.

10 Years of Lessons at Boomer Music Company
On September 26th, 2014 I climbed this staircase for my first day of teaching above Boomer Music Company.
After 10 years of lessons, I have to say: those are a lot of stairs.
