Vive Noepeli, Short films and Festivals!!!

Ladies and gentlemen,
I have been away on an artist’s residency in a beautiful hillside fairy land called Noepoli.
The artist’s residency is called, ‘Palazzorinaldi,’ and I really recommend it.   Although I  also selfishly want to keep it a secret so I can go there as the sole guest and be treated like a Principesse again [...]

Exhilarating, Tired, Inspired, Weary…The show, the show, the..

Ladies and gentlemen,
so much to do, have wonderful new producer to help, sat with him and conspired in Dalkey last night.  There was an electricity cut so we talked in candlelight - quite magical… I always sense wonder in the air when I meet a new artist to take part in the process.  Keith is [...]

Back from Nice and ready to reel!

Ladies and Gentlemen!
Had a sweet rest in an attic looking over the sunny winter rooves of the south of France… I was alone in the atelier: read ‘Revolutionary Road’, and - about the French Revolution -  in, ‘Citizens,’ a book by Simon Schama.. Am studying the history of social change for my film and novel..
Came [...]

Post Cobalt Cabaret.. The peaceful review

Hello ladies and gentlemen,
It was such a magical gig… I am relieved and relaxed now it’s over.  The build up to it was ‘charged,’ but also hot to boiling point - in terms of tension and anxiety… The meditation and grounding techniques are a great help - but my humanity is stretched to its very [...]
