It getting better and better. have met some NGO and some UN Peace COP that is interested in Tree Planter. The encouragement gathered is forming a Tree Planting Project soon to hit Accra and the sud regions. The overall aim is to plant edible fruit bearing trees to provide a source of relieve to the hustlers on the street.

Tell me what you are working on so far....

Thank You.
I wrote to more musicians on Soundclick today, this time Bahrain and
Bangladesh.
Unfortunately, Soundclick stopped me before I was ready to stop, I got
this message: "Sorry, you are no longer allowed to use this form."
I presume I have been stopped from using this form because they
mistakenly believe I am spamming other Soundclick members. While it
is true I've send out dozens of nearly identically worded messages to
members - but of course they aren't spam messages, they are offering
musicians an opportunity to contribute their talents to a worthy
cause.
I will try to straighten this out with Soundclick, but while I am
doing that, does anybody else have a suggestion of an alternative
place to go for talent, or an alternative approach to inviting the
talent to participate?
My other act undertaken for the project today - I wrote to Merouane
Hebboul, the creative force behind Corbusmil, who I told you about
yesterday.
Please let me know if you approve (or not) of my approach to this project.

Dear Merouane Hebboul,
I am so happy to get your positive response to my email, and your
request for more information about the project.
What I hope to do is marshal people's talents in a fashion where they
can operate with as little or much independence as they wish.
If they have a strong group orientation, they can chose to stick very
closely to the template we're providing with the version George sings,
even to the point of using some of the original tracks. If that's the
approach they wish to take, if they chose their tracks can also be
made available for others (particularly hip hop people and electronica
people, who excel more at remixing elements than creating new ones
from scratch) to use in their productions... making a very large, but
compatible pool of source material available. The chief creative
challenge to people taking this approach is the translation of the
lyrics to the local language, preserving rhymes and cadence...
Others who have an orientation of striking out on their own can create
their own words and music from scratch. The element that is really
essential is a simple one - this is a tree planting campaign. The
lyrics should mention planting trees.
This may sounds like a potentially chaotic situation, but I know from
experience it can work - everybody finding their own path according to
the dictates of their own creativity - we will converge on the goal,
and I think what we all bring to the project will be pretty amazing.
Since I got your response, I've checked out more of your music on
Soundclick, and also YouTube, and I am just very impressed.
Do you have a vocalist you work with? That to me is a key element - a
voice to communicate the message, whether it is a singing voice, a
rapping voice, or a speaking voice! Also, I would hope for some
elements of traditional Nigerian music to be featured in the
presentation, but I wouldn't presume to tell you what to do if that
isn't part of your aesthetic. I'm sure whatever you would do would be
excellent!

Well, my friends, earlier today I was thinking that it would be interesting if everybody would do just one thing per day for the tree planting song project, and would share it with other people in the project. One little thing, multiplied over time, and also each of us getting ideas from each other and building on them... who knows what could happen?But I felt it a little unfair to even ask such a thing... after all, only 3 of us are really committed to this project, and the others on this list are people that I HOPE will get committed to it. I don't want to drive you off by being too pushy! So if anybody feels like sharing their experiences and activities on a day-to-day basis, please feel free. If you don't feel like coming out of lurking mode, that's ok. If you want to unsubscribe (since some of you I subscribed to this list myself) that's ok, I would be sad, but I wouldn't be angry.My report for today was going to be very short... I have sent out more emails to potential musical contacts. But just now I got the following email - I am quite enthusiastic about it, especially after I watched some of his videos; I particularly liked the music on this one:http://www.youtube.com/user/corbusmilvideos#p/u/3/pcAp-w7WeGYBut when I saw some of the underwater ones, I thought how nice it would be to have moving pictures of the forest, and so on... my extremely crude test video only has still pictures.Anyway, I wanted to share the news of our potential new team member, and plant a seedling about an improved video idea...and how was your day?
