About this project

I compose music for dance companies, film directors, museum installations, experimental instrument builders and my ensembles.
I've been using old, funky, rundown equipment and I'm tired of it!
I'd like to upgrade my studio purchasing a new computer (my desktop computer is at least 12 years old!), new computer monitor (so I can stop looking at my big scores on a tiny screen!) and new software including the latest orchestral sounds and drum loops.
I would also would like to buy a new keyboard, a pair of new microphones, stands and cables.
If I'm able to raise the money, I will upgrade my studio immediately buying all the newest gear from local San Francisco vendors.
