Diary of an imaginary project: Day 1.
The importance of working on work cannot be overstated, a strong ethic. Working on work for a new fantasy epic novel/musical kind of piece of work thingy is the intention. The working title is "Sidlemass of Horsewillow" I think that that tells you all you really need to know about the WORK and the whole pastiche basis of the plan and project. I may just transfer it all into some lengthy middle ages poetry style of an ancient language tapestry, either that or turn it into an opera based around the version of the tale that the monks of Lindisfarne gift shop allegedly wrote during the dark ages or the slightly graying ages as they've come to be known. Vikings over the horizon. Skeletons of dragons. Dim magic memories from the dawn of time. Red wine and crusty bread. Proper records were never kept so there's options.
There is a plot, a story board/arc and some sub-plots, I think. It's a bit vague at the moment. There will be information population. Some concept art. Twists and cliches. It's only home made music.
I could also gather together some elite progressive rock musicians and allow them to turn it into an acid fusion double CD and a triple vinyl album with an alternative sleeve worked up by some fantasy comic artist type (we'll be using traditional digital instrumentation, flutes, voices, long arguments and lengthy sleeve notes). Then a spoken word section over an ambient piece using tabla, wah wah and orchestrated umbrellas. Yeah. It's a lot of effort for what? Be big in Japan and Scandinavia. Soon. I'm planning an even more imaginary podcast and a crowd funding strategy.
