Fwd: Kim Flint and Looper's Delight

["D.E. Ward" <dave@imageofsound.com>]

. . .and ditto for this LD newbie.

I am also a semi-pro sound designer, based in Austin, TX, that subscribes to a couple of Northern CA based sound design discussion groups.  What strikes me as even more important than the great information and discussions that these forums provide, is the exposure - if even remotely and briefly - to talented individuals such as Kim Flint, people who selfishly share their passion and knowledge with others.   Seeing their example really inspires me and makes me pause to consider the truly important things in this life.  

I have copied the sound design yahoo group on this message and invite them to explore the life and work of Kim Flint, including http://www.loopers-delight.com/loop.html.

Thank you for the inspiration.

I'll echo TR's sentiments. I too recently joined, and feel like I missed the opportunity to better know a great person. I also feel very strongly that this community needs to persist, and will also gladly contribute whatever free time/money I have, and is needed to the efforts. My thoughts go out to Violet and all of Kim's family and friends in this tough time.

I am a total newbie on the forum (registered in May)but have been a casual reader for years thanks to Andy Butler and his Vortex page. I'm sorry it took so long for me to speak up and so miss my chance to know this great person responsible for this great community. But I am so glad you are making this T shirt available. I want to find a way to help keep this going and this is the such a perfect way for anyone anywhere to help.And as others have said, if there is anything else you need. I am a good carpenter and can at least do data entry, whatever. I live in the north bay and come to Berkeley often. Just let me know.
