1) Who are you? {AN} EeL / Neal D. Retke 2) Can you describe your surroundings? Currently - The ' Man Cave ' portion of the house, i.e. - the basement, A.K.A. ~ Where the magic happens 3) Where would you like to go? As time progresses, it's less a matter of where I want to than enjoying where I am - A Mantra presented itself to me a number of years ago, that being " This is where I am Now " - It's always true & bears keeping in mind. I consider myself fortunate in having traveled a lot - New Zealand, Central & South America, All around the USA - Several pilgrimages to Cheser, Ill.

1) Who are you? Mike Fuchs/Yellow Salamand’r... and I’m still learning who I really am. 2) Can you describe your surroundings? Small village rural. Generally peaceful. 3) Where would you like to go?

So essentially I do it for me, but clearly audience response... good or bad... is invigorating. Final answer... no/yes😉. 7) Why Resist? Depends entirely on the circumstances. 8) Why do you do it?

Hello, we have two EFSPACM projects in June, "Machines" and "Odd Oddities". First: the invitation about the "Machines" project. It can be concrete music (recording a machine) or something resembling machines/about machines. You can use any instruments, your mouth, it can be spoken/sung poetry or just abstract sounds. Or simply the title can be about machines, and your music can sound any way you wish.

The other EFSPACM project of June, Odd Oddities, is the idea of Volker Störtebeker, who got a mandoline zither from the year 1905. So make music with Odd/Old Oddities. Plain and simple! Be it an old instrument or music inspired by old stuff. Please send the r
