a rough version of the soundtrack to the first part of Rick's story is up!  it only took like 18mo for me to figure out how to convert .wav to .mp3 and to be at peace with such a low quality version out there. 

each piece would eventually have 2 versions, one for a dvd or cdrom or something and jonO's website, etc.  the other version would have a more heavily edited down voice-over for live performances. 

this is totally inadequate, as i can't figure out how to mix the photos/voice-over with the audio yet and put it on youtube or something.  maybe when there is a better recording.  you could play the photo slideshow with Rick's voiceover if you go to whispersinthestorm.com.  Playing the voice over and slideshow and the song on the myspace profile will give you a sense of what i'm talking about.

it's something to get us started.  we'll see what happens next.
