My Essay About Time which is dedicated to George Russell (with kind permission from Alice and George) is finally published as the introductory chapter to the design book Tempus Fugit and will be available in Europe, Asia and North America this month. It's on several websites now and will be in stock soon. I have 100 copies of the essay here and only 1 copy of the book. They'll be available through Amazon etc. I've posted a few pictures here http://www.4shared.com/file/131529042/3 ... tbook.html I love the second image in this pdf which shows my calendar design using Milt Hinton's picture of George Russell and John Coltrane at the recording session for NY NY.
I was first influenced by the River Trip diagram - which I saw as a 16 year old schoolboy in Scotland because my art teacher Andy Park had a copy. Andy, an accomplished arranger, and one of the original contributors to The Real Book provided a context in which I grew to appreciate music. Seeing that drawing in 1963 completely changed my understanding and probably the direction of my life as well.
It's nice to see all this come together now - because "It's About Time".
