I am getting 50 copies made of this as of tomorrow for 3$ each and using
them to do film festivals.  The main purpose of that, is to gain momentum
for another topic, dealing exclusively with a tag sale from 2011 I did in Harlem,
in an apartment of someone who used to be a major in Asian studies at the
University of Columbia in Harlem.  A list of the records I bought home was
Chang Siao Ying, Yao Surong, Lena Lim, Grace Chang, The Stylers,
Homer Dennison, Paul Marks and His Orchestra, (Golden Voices from Japan)
Vincent Gomez (A Rainy Night in Tokyo)- etc. etc.

(I am only doing this for the benefit of one person, basically so I don't need
to necessarily delve into some of the more obscure, intellectual titles, and stuff
that is like "folk music from China, music for Koto, Welcome to Japan, Folk
music of Indonesia" stuff like that...basically-

So I was researching Spalding Gray who was in the Killing Fields, because
I wrote that song based on an experience of not being allowed to watch that
movie when I was young, and from there on in, did it professionally in the
recording studio when I was about 24, did the video last month, but wrote
the music when I was about 15 or 16, so anyway, thru the internet and stuff
like that, I found artists from Cambodia, who weren't able to survive the
regime of forced labor during the late 1970's, like Pan Ron, and I've been
bouncing around with, organizations like, The Suu Foundation that is the
foundation in Burma, to gain healthcare for the new government, and the
agents for people like Michelle Yeoh and Gong Li, who were in one film
together, "Memoirs of a Geisha", and I've been targeting them, because the
cover of the vinyl for "A Rainy Night in Tokyo' reminds me of that movie,
as well as some of the Japanese Koto records I have.

Regardless, my entertainment lawyer, doesn't provide much assistance,
in terms of him being totally enthusiastic that I am able to jot down rough
idea's for something that is nuance oriented a film like "Memoirs of a Geisha',
and furthermore, was only able to provide me with a telephone number for
the agent of one of the leading characters, who was giving birth during the
time I got the telephone number, and to make the circumstances more
perplexing, I had some bizarre respiratory illness, contracted from mail order
ginseng drinks, verse a haphazard blitz on the diving certification/registration
scene upon arriving in Cape Coral, at a diving resort in Key Largo after
moving here from Long Island, and the city of Glen Cove, NY.

All I got was a picture of me on the dock we thru onto the DVD's title
menu, but the Asian study thing, was something I've tried to submit to Hollywood
in the form of a screen play to an agency who asked "how are you going to
pay for it", so, I said to them, my idea was to release a film and publicize the
cover art of the albums, "Rainy Night in Tokyo", "A Tokyo Rhapsody' to
some rich, potential investors and make a film, plus I revisited the neighborhood
in N. Harlem, 126th Street and Madison Ave, to a teacher in astrophysics,
who has the same birthday as my younger sister.

So I went there, to the roof top of the astronomy lab, in Harlem during late
July and tried to take an interview of the astronomy teacher, but let her delete
the footage after she objected, to the likelihood of it being posted onto
You Tube, however, I don't have organized followers, subscribing, as opposed
to large and vague area's of archives, I am at liberty to experiment with that
span over 20 channels, so nothing is easy to find unless I want you to, and
their is about 15 seconds of me talking to a student there.

That is all, if you are interested.  My main collaborator/friend with this is
a big Transformers fan, and the only plot convenience that is conducive to
the study of the universe and astrophysics, is Transformers, but since I think
of it, and experiment with the idea of filming CGI characters there, I thought
I should bring it to your attention.  The whole helicopter thing is something
that I recollect, from a movie that closes with a mental patient putting on a
pair of sunglasses and getting on a helicopter at the end of a black and white,
Turner Classic Film, plus Michelle Yeoh has done her share of stunts,
although I have yet to formally make any connection, her roll as Aung San
Su Kyii in the 2011 film the Lady, was overwhelmingly conducive to the
parallels I made towards the situation in Burma I made when first seeing
Patricia Arquettes in "Beyond Rangoon', and making cross connections
between the house arrest which Aung San Su Kyii experienced and/as well
as a book by Mark Twain that was banned "Letters from the Earth' up
until, way into the late 1960's, so I'm excited about using that scenario of
Asian studies, Harlem, etc, but it's not written, 'story wise'.

That is all I want to share, off Facebook.  Facebook is hard to share on
because you run the risk of not getting a reply thru private messages and
in public, their is always anonymous parties who can get the plot synopsis
so I am always subconsciously worried about anyone becoming too familiar
with the plot/story line before it get's out.  Their are no followers on this
page, that I know of so it's a little more discrete.  I am willing to send
a copy of the DVD up to Canada, and/or a copy of "the road to abylon",
but I am not usually this, enthusiastic about the Cambodian drama but in
this case the association of you, the helicopter, the stunts, Gray Spalding,
Pan Ron and the two films he was in, "Beyond Rangoon" plus "Killing
Fields' has me anxious to proceed in a way, reminiscent of an Akira Kirosawa
Film, not as an educated adult.

I think the idea of landing the helicopter on the roof of the building where
I went to the astronomy teachers party uninvited would be great, but I am
still, unfamiliar with film festivals, celebrities, talk show hosts, etc.  Please
respect the nature of the research I am doing, insomuch as it's a characteristic
of someone who is at ease with the quality of research as is, let alone the
quality of the demeanor it puts out.
