I’d love a teeny-tiny part, if there are any left (and the drama can withstand an Irish accent 😆). Will amplify and promote as a splendid example of indie collaboration and all round fabulosity. Bravo Mr Danko!

Sign me up as "just happy to be here." :)

Seriously, I'm fully on-board with your choices with licensing.

In terms of creative collaboration, eh, in my universe, I see you as the Creative Director here. I can try things out but will always defer to you, who's putting it together. Just lemme know what you need.

In addition to the song I’ve got in the works, I’m up for a voice acting role! I’ve been putting off recording my reading voice too long, my time has come!

I’ve also been drawing more again and thought it might be fun to sketch voice actors as their characters (and maybe even draw frames from action scenes that are cut).

Ok! I got you down !! Can you read some lines and send it to submit.bitpunk.fm ? There are many smaller roles.

Yeah on the sketches, have at it! I’m thinking each week or so I will make a post and summarize the activity. So I think the production can move forward and then the visuals can lag behind a bit.

So if you take the pilot and make a sketch for that I will fold it in! But yes I can also let you know what’s getting cut.

This sounds so awesome. Let me know how I can help beyond the bit role.

I have some material in draft with regards to contemporary spoken word / performance art / audio design. I hope to get it out next month. I have other related stuff in my archives:

Let me know if you are looking for anything in particular related to avantgarde audio productions.

This is one of my favorite audio dramas, produced for WBAI back in 1967.

It's a great example of community science fiction radio.

Onwards!
