Okay So I Lied About Not Posting
Happy Hanukkah!
I hope all my friends of the Jewish persuasion are having an awesome holiday, and continue to enjoy the next seven days of candles and/or presents. There's just something wonderfully evocative about mid-winter festivals of light - even if it's not my holiday, I still think it's a pretty nifty idea.
Due to poor planning and time management on my part, I am going to spend the rest of tonight throwing together a presentation and write-up for my project on Indian tabla performance. It's a pretty neat concept - I'm going to use a bunch of music/video clips and an interview, and talk about how drumming and performance techniques get used in different ways in different contexts - but gaaaah, so much work. I don't think I'll be able to sleep again until Friday.
