In the absence of some substantial piece of writing:
I did this drawing at Vortex Jazz on 4th February…it’s Stephan Crump of the Rosetta Trio:
…wondering how I might integrate it into a different kind of drawing, I redrew it using the same technique (looking at the subject but not the object – i.e. the drawing on which I was engaged). Then I built/drew a frame around it and it has come out like this (so far):
On Sunday as I walked home I found this CD on Kingsbury Road next to the Jewish cemetery:
I found the plectrum on Culford Road 2 days later. Here is Track 1 of the CD…I don’t know what it is called nor who is playing.
Excellent; Double Base or is it a Cello My sense of scale is a tad off… Sent from my iPhone

Now Mr S This is really going on; Heading in a Beuysian direction perhaps?

Very Groovy
Slightly Ravi Shankerish?
I think more Arabian or Turkish…and apparently it is an acoustic road bass (in the drawings that is)…
Interesting structural addition to the drawing. Nice track. Wonder if it’s connected to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hu9IHRJfJNU
Excellent detective work…I had presumed that ‘Metin’ was the recipient of the CD but you could be right.
Listening to this beautiful music and looking at the redrawn player within his cathedral like setting I end up thinking that metin and matins must be related.
This music on the CD is the only acoustic track…the atmosphere of metin/matins soon fades…
