About Me
- Andrew Durkin...
- ...is a hack composer and pseudo-intellectual living in Portland, OR. His main project is the wacky LA-based acoustic jazz monstrosity, the Industrial Jazz Group. He has scored several films and videos, including the award winning shorts "Fish" and "Lunch" by Sarah Jane Shute. He was once a member of the now-defunct NJ vocal ensemble, the Evelyn Situation. Some folks also claim that he has written a rock opera, a screenplay, and an innovative arrangement of Stephen Sondheim's score for A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. He studied composition with his CD Player, and before that, with his turntable. Durkin's doctoral dissertation, Decomposition: a Critique of Musical Authorship and Authenticity, may be published someday. (We've seen it, and it's a little high-falutin' for our taste.) In any case, he likes to write words as well as sounds, and occasionally he pokes at a collection of essays entitled The Revolution Will Not Be Linear.

LOVE LOVE LOVE it!
So funny how your daughter didn't quite get that she's not supposed to be in the show!
And I dig the impressionistic soundtrack.
Well done!

Really, really wonderful. She was smiling the biggest smile the entire time!
What a fabulous gift you've given her. In 20 years after a tough day at work, she's going to watch this video and her soul will sing. :-)
Thanks, y'all.
Yeah, we also found it hilarious that she didn't seem concerned about the performer/audience barrier. She's a very postmodern 5-year-old.
I should also note that she read the entire "script" (actually a book of hers from school) by herself. (In case that wasn't obvious.)
Thanks for checking it out!
