My very-Wirrow Halloween pumpkin :)

A Spin Faerie (F. Centrifugus, at left) leads a small coven of fay in nature worship ceremonies at the Leaf Temple. Their nature centered religion is the source of all faerie magic. The occasion for this ceremony is to bless the arrival of the white hatchling (bottom center), recently transformed from it's caterpillar (larval) stage. The hatchling will remain in butterfly form for several weeks before again transforming into faery form, at another ceremony.

Been itching to use cerebis and SFBakstad's beautiful timelapses for a while - so decided to do a reading (eek) and make a video for one of my poems.

It's written from the perspective of an old man full of regret. Bit gloomy - a cautionary tale to myself suppose - a reminder to live every second.

F. Centrifugus, or The Spin Faery, is known for it's graceful and dazzling ability to spin any convenient twig or other convenient tool, sometimes lit afire at both ends, while engaged in complex aerial acrobatic maneuvers, all while never so much as singeing her wings. This ability has evolved from a natural (if unusual) defense mechanism into a ritualized dance. F. Centrifugus is also a highly magical being, well attuned to nature.

I love pixel pilgrim's song. I added some drums. There's a lot of excellent sing-along moments. Anybody frisky enough to give it a go? Also, I find the whole thing très cinématique, so who's got some visuals for us?

Overnight tonight, I'll upload a zip of all the stems/resources/ProTools files, etc. (YIKES! the tech problems grow and my shit's erased! unless some miraculous recovery happens, the files no longer exist! Well, I guess I'll just have to play these drums again. It'll be better the second go-around) This could definitely use a better mix, ahem...

I wanted to add more stuff (bass especially) but, surprise surprise, i'm having troubles with the ol' REC Room rig, and at this point it crashes when I add anything new to the project? :o/

Also worth noting that I generally like to encourage everyone to record themselves on video when playing music. You just never know when that visual element might come in handy. I did not do that here, partially out of tech frustration, and mostly because my soul really just couldn't wait to play the drums already :o)

A re-record of ntheon's "Contemplative Faerie"

there's a lot of different ways this thing can go, but this is the first, and i've tampered with it enough. also, we still have tons of material to add, which sorta begs for alternate versions anyway. (i'm happy to have a project that goes on indefinitely!) the original size on this is 13" x 13".
