Some good news! I got a one year grant from Arts Promotion Centre Finland. Basically that means I can focus on my very own artistic work for one year – new material, new CD, concerts and such. But I am not supposed to use the grant for my thesis, and I should not teach too much. These conditions are quite alright, but they mean that my schedule needs some adjusting. Luckily I can postpone the grant for a while.

Nice problems to have. Thanks Taike!
