sensory deprivation in the studio

[OT from cottage renovations]

I haven't really said much about this week's project, which is happening in a video production facility in Salt Lake City.  fortunately what I'm doing is all off-camera, a mix of technical support, providing content and sanity checking in the control booth.  a bit outside the normal daily routine but interesting though the days start early and end late without any stopping.  I had been anticipating 12- to 14-hour days but so far they have been running a bit longer than that.  it's not immediately clear how long the shoot will run (we are, of course, behind schedule and over budget) nor how long I will be needed here. 

yesterday also featured an unexpected complication in the form of a temporary visual impairment on my part.  the ability to alter font sizes in Windows came in quite handy.  by the end of the day self-treatment with eye drops had managed to get things under control but it was one of those reminders of the ephemeral nature of those functions and capabilities that one tends to take for granted.

I had no idea that Salt Lake City was so dangerous to us coastal folk. Don't worry. There will be plenty of humidity for you when you get back!
