23 October 2009 tapes of artwork by Lester Yocum and a short interview with the
artist. If you see the video I did for
the book “A Reluctant
Malachi,” you can see Les’ work on that painting of the Apostles in the
middle of the video. It is also the
thumbnail for the video. Les believed
enoughin the project to license some of his fantastic artwork for use in the

Notes:
Good day. Slowly paring down the
tape pile. Contacted Sharkey to tell him
how well the system is working and to ask him if there’s room to install
another hard drive. Sony support advises
against digitizing video to the same drive that holds the OS, so as the second
drive gets full, I will need another hard drive. I wish I could do more blogging as there are
a few topics I would like to stretch out on, but that will have to be a weekend
thing, perhaps.
