The Fire Marshall called. He wants an updated count of working monitors and estimated miles of cat-5 and other wires and connections. Laugh

One of my neighbors asked if I had a license to use all this stuff.

How does the tin ceiling work for sound? Wink

Very cool.
I just feng shui'd this afternoon and reoriented my desk without, I hope, changing the sound too much...(fingers crossed here)

So I'm guessing you're never going to move again... Wink

If I do, the desk stays. It's been accidentally built into the room-- I had a wall and door put in and the desk won't go through it.

Nifty old Government Issue desk. Solid oak for the most part. 15 square feet of desk space.

Did you run another 15/20 amp circuit into that room just for all the additions?... or is the wiring as is?

I had new wiring put in, but nothing outrageous.

We rewired all of the existing service and had a few new 110V outlets installed. I've added a few multi-taps as well here and there.

There are not a lot of amps rolling through any of this stuff and God knows I don't have everything running at once.
The G4 tower can heat the place in the winter, though-- if I'm working on a film or something. It's got 2 processors and they can crank out the heat.
I had to replace the fans in the case-- the ones that it came with were driving me nutz.

What's the pink stuff on the window?

Deirdre · Posted: Fri Sep 15, 2006 10:25 pm Post subject:

A single pull-down shade.

It looks patchy because I used something like 25 images to make this panorama and the paralax results in a bit of fraying on both ends.

Awesome DB...looks like you're "holding it down" over there at the Camp. A work of modern marvel I tell ya.

I'm jealous. I went into my little 8x8 studio/office/sewing room and showed it the picture and said "see, this is what you want to grow up to look like!" I know, patience grasshopper.
