Hi list! This is the first time I'm writing on the list, up until now I've only been a lurker enjoying the discussions. This recent one and a half years have been very challenging for me, as well as very productive. Maybe some of you did experience the same awkward feeling, in the beginning of the pandemic? I myself was kind of paralyzed by the lack of contact with colleagues and audience. After some time, however, this emptiness forced me to develop a new artistic concept, that I streamed live on Youtube <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8JFiKqPOdk&list=PLjkgSdiLI7ON65TcpirSR7tSI7KkPo49y> every Monday, week after week, reaching out to the audience. The project is called Drawing Sessions <https://annrosen.se/livestreams/>, because I draw music with a piece of graphite on paper that is connected to synthesizers that I built especially for this purpose. Those weekly sessions resulted in a digital music album - "In a Small Room" <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yrvMPLfy_I&list=OLAK5uy_m19ryo-uq1tExIOGDSh4XhOPVQbPaS61Y> - which fortunately received attention in The Wire Magazine <https://www.thewire.co.uk/issues/446?fbclid=IwAR1HGhjmL1s2hnSqT-g2gFpKio7QkZuEyOESz15dcanLaYkbR9LLCdU9lNc>among others, as well as my first vinyl that is to be released soon, and an exhibition at Ping-Pong Gallery <https://www.galleripingpong.se/> in Malmö, Sweden, opening on Sep 18th. If any of this caught your interest, please follow my work on Youtube <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgzO-aWsFPhZkgsucbUJBFQ>and Instagram <https://www.instagram.com/ann.rosen/>. Maybe the Drawing Sessions would suit a venue or programme that you know of…? If so, please don't hesitate to contact me! <https://annrosen.se/contact/> Also, please do reach out whenever you come to the south of Sweden in the future, because there is nothing better than meeting in the real world. All the best, Ann
