Dear RMepstead,

I hope to dispell your scepticism. I believe that if you had indeed read both the threads "TAMMY: Inspired Variations" and "Collective Music Making on a Theme" with care and understanding, you would have realised by now that the project is intended to serve public purposes that are non-profitable and non-commercial, with the aim of achieving some (self)-educational, participatory and creative outcomes that can be shared among all.

Furthermore, as you can see from the relevant section in my first posting, the script that I have carefully prepared for the website does not even bear my name as the originator of the idea or concept, and for which I shall also receive no remuneration.

In addition, like the engine running the many forums in the Synth Zone, the project will be largely automated by the underlying web engine(s) with little maintenance or human intervention.

To Phil Lynch (Joe), RMepstead, and whomever it may concern,

I know that I have written a lot, and that there is a great deal to digest. Apart from the fact that we all need time, patience, understanding and even a dose of scepticism and the benefit of doubt to register new or radical ideas, I would sincerely hope that there is something much more in my proposal than that which meets the eye or ear.

I also believe that I have already made it quite clear in both the threads "TAMMY: Inspired Variations" and "Collective Music Making on a Theme" that the purpose of this project is ultimately beyond my personal need or aspiration. The project is meant to become a platform invested with far more global, participatory, heuristic and long-term goals than just the mere whim or desire of a person wanting to set up his or her own website from scratch for people to know his or her music. Hence, the project should be implemented at an already well-known and established site, with the enticement of the availability of a large number of contributions by many people, as well as the excitement of a far greater exposure of the posted musical works to a large public.

Furthermore, I am not even strict about whether the web designer(s) will follow my script to the letter, for I did indicate that it can be changed or adapted to suit the design/format of the adoptive website(s).

As I write this, my idea is already in the public domain. If someone has the foresight and recognises its potential, then it will be used sooner or later. If, however, there is no taker, then we are still better off at least to the extent that there is a pregnant idea or option out there for those who want it. If some people find ways to commercialise it, then that is good for them too as long as they balance their financial gains with the good that the idea may bring.

A while back I wrote:
"I do believe that there is a new Khai posting on the forum -------".

I do believe I have to take that statement back. All I see is a lot of verbose gibberish with no action.

Dear Khai
There's an interesting course at The University Of Queensland according to the web site called: Humanities, Social science, Education and Arts - have a look at it sometime will you while you are there...

Hi Khia. I asked.
Other members have their own websites. Can you not create your own!!.
Bill Forrest I know asked you to send him something you have played on one of your many instruments, and he will send it out, you have not taken advantage of this kind offer.
Do you not wish to comment!!

If you do send Bill one of your compositions
A Technics would be the best instrument to use. You do have one!. I have seen. This post is not meant to be rude in anyway. I would simply like to hear you play, not with your friend, who you work with, just you on your own.
Sincerely.
Joe.

WE have adequate distribution channels for our music with out the need to create more.
We have Cee's website. Andy's Technics for all website, and my email distribution lists. These enable each player to play what they want, and how they want and share it when they feel others will be interested in their work. NO OTHER EFFORT IS REQUIRED BY THE PLAYER.
Am I to understand that now it is going to be acceptable to tell people what to play and record for our distribution. Get REAL

I have no intention of letting you get me pregnant thanks very much. If thats how Tammy got started with child, I think I will give the variations a miss, I would not mind performing the intro though

Is something such as the TAMMY project going to deprive people of their existing options? You can answer that for yourself.

Khai

My proposal and the TAMMY project will be unnecessary and redundant if it is just about distribution.
