Live and Uncut

         Let me set things up like this:  the words I just typed are clicking through cyberspace...  I can hear my fingers moving across the keys, and then I hear it again, delayed through my web-cam feed.  We installed three cameras around the house, and for the next month, as I track, mix and master my album, we will be broadcasting live 24/7.

         The first day was rough, especially trying to fall asleep.  I had to lie there for an hour, knowing all the while that somebody was awake and watching me.  But eventually, I stopped thinking about it.  Showering has been a bit awkward; the same goes for bathroom breaks, but overall, it’s been surprisingly comfortable.

         Through the chat window, I’ve had the chance to meet dozens of interesting and unique people from all around the world.  It’s also allowed me to throw impromptu concerts whenever the urge strikes, and it’s nice to have companionship on demand.  I was skeptical at first, but I’m really starting to adapt.

         I don’t know how long this experiment will last.  I’ll probably turn the cameras off once the album is done, but who knows, maybe I’ll log in every now and again.  If you’d like to check in on the live feed, just click through to RonnieDayMusic.com.

         Don’t be shy.  It’s fun to lurk.
