  • The Rabbit Hole

    The Rabbit Hole

    The title of my post is the most accurate description I could come up with for this “simple” tutorial. Ha! It’s funny how once you know how to do something, you do it mechanically and subconsciously, without really thinking. But, while trying to convey instructions to someone else it’s like sliding down the rabbit hole.…

  • My Beating Heart

    My Beating Heart

    There is music wherever there is rhythm, as there is life wherever there beats a pulse.
