16/02: The Writing Space of Musician Ben Lee
The Writing Space of Musician Ben Lee
The call to 'Show Me Your Writing Desk' has given us a voyeuristic peek at the private writing rooms of Leigh Redhead, John Birmingham, Sarah Wilson, Jack Heath, Will Elliot, Dominic Knight, James Bradley, Tracey O' Hara, Rhys Muldoon, Emma Tom, Lee Tulloch, Maggie Alderson, Kathy Charles and Nick Earls, among others. We've seen anarchic, we've seen neat. We've been welcomed into cramped, temporary writing rooms as well as writing spaces that are blissfully organised and purpose-built. Further adding to the theory that there is no 'right' writing space, so long as it works for the writer, The Book Post presents the writing space of musician Ben Lee.
Like many writers, the Aria winning musician 'absolutely' prefers to create from home. 'Especially with the new baby. Plus I get to keep more money from the recording budget. I'm not blowing it at someone elses studio.' Lee's home studio features white flowers, family photographs, notebooks, computer, and naturally, a plethora of guitars and musical instruments. The space is decorated with 'bits and pieces'. 'My wife (Iona Skye) bought the Bahamas poster on ebay,' he explains. 'There is a Noise Addict album cover and a picture of Lakshmi, and a drawing my step-daughter did of a fish that says "don't litter if you love a sea critter".
Do not adjust your computer. These photos arrived mysteriously reversed. Note the large jar of SWEHSAC (Cashews).
Check out The Rebirth of Venus, and Lee's latest with Noise Addict, created with 'everything recorded quickly, in my bedroom, with lots of stupid arbitrary rules like no mic-stands.' Lee says, 'The songs were all written by me except 'Lasagna', which I wrote with my step-daughter, Kate.'
Happy writing, (and listening.) May the muse be with you...

You may have not intended to do so, but I think you have managed to express your ideas that a lot of people are in. The sense of wanting to help, but not knowing how or where, is something a lot of us are going through.

Caron Butler scored 22 points and Brendan Haywood added 10 in their playoff debuts replica watches for Dallas. Both were part of a major trade in February that turned a good Mavericks team into a much better one. They rolled into the playoffs having won eight of 10 and replica watches five straight. Jason Kidd added 13 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds for the Mavericks, and Dampier had five points, 12 rebounds and lots of bruises from bumping against Tim Duncan. I thought we did a <a href="http://www.uselectronicsupp...">Electronic Supplies</a> great job replica watch of executing our offense and getting replica watches the ball where we needed to, Butler said. We shared the ball and did a lot of good things. San Antonio got plenty from its stars Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker -- but that was about it fake watches. While Duncan had 27 points and eight rebounds, Ginobili scored 26 and Parker fake watches had 18 points and four assists, the rest of the club made only 10 of 26 shots.
