Hands Fall In

It's time to do more with my hands, both of them, and both my eyes, while I still have them

I've decided to continue my creative journey with flamenco while engaging in the story of this music and lifestyle. There have been topics around guitar, singing and the history of the aural tradition which have piqued my curiosity. Not having the breadth of knowledge or having lived the history, I'm left with creating something all my own, something far less than history, or even historical fiction, but something to evoke the powerful symbolism and imagination that's been so cooped up in me I can hardly sleep.

And so this is my way of saying 'Enough!'. I need a break from the war of words, and the hustle and bustle of the day-to-day software project management and people chasing.

Comics as a medium has enthralled since I was fairly young.

It has the expression of sport, art and dance. It is a poly-art. I've gravitated toward these multimedia expressions before:

* flamenco
* capoeira
* interactive digital tools combining art, music
* now comics

So it's my turn to give back and produce a comic about music, a fantasy or dream of sorts.

It's been on my list and soon it will reach your screen or table in the form of a short story. For now, let's call it Hands Fall In
