I discovered the Errant Aesthete only yesterday and must have sneaked away from spreadsheet boredom into your wonderful world around 7 times already today; it’s irresistible! I hope to see your name in the Murphy Goode Top 10 tomorrow. It will be more than deserved.

Catherine,

I am secretly thrilled that people are not only taking the time to vote, but taking the time to post about it. While the number of views is respectable, the dearth of comments has been somewhat disappointing. I have long thought EA was easily digestible, but perhaps not provocative enough to excite, inspire, infuriate, etc. I do hope my brief little cinematic “hello” may have started a trend with people like you posting for the first time. Thank you.

And no, I do not do voice work, but thank you for the compliment.

Longtime follower, first time commenter. For the longest time I couldn’t explain what about your video I liked so much (by the way .. you have my vote ..and good luck!). I mean don’t get me wrong, I looked at some of the others and there’s no doubt that yours was the most professional, wonderfully written, beautifully shot, even scored. And to see you after all this time. Well, it’s obvious you’ve got style, class and taste just like your site. But then I looked at an earlier response, and bingo, the light went on! What really struck me most about your presentation is the voice. Yes, the voice! Do you do it now..voice work?

Arti,

It matters not that your comments are belated.
It is one of the most moving and heartfelt of responses.
Thank YOU for articulating and understanding much of the
conflict I feel and have felt. I am deeply touched by your
sentiments and support.

I’m at a loss for words! After all the comments before me, what more can I say, except maybe… awestruck. Thank you so much for allowing us a glimpse of the ingenuity behind the AEsthete. I know this video will be one that I’ll come back to time and time again. I can appreciate your dilemma considering our media-frenzied, wacky world, where everyone can be a journalist or paparazzo. Let me assure you of the positive effects your revealing of a persona has among us readers, and particularly one who excels in delayed resonance and ripple effects, commenting some nine days after the post. It’s the least that I can do to show my support and enthusiasm for your courageous act by clicking on a vote. All the best and enjoy the ride!

Brad,

That could be an interesting option – voice over work. Having worked in the industry,
it is most assuredly one of the best gigs around. Thanks for your support.

my vote has been cast. You’re in. What cinched it for me was the voice. The eye shot worked great too. But that voice! Spellbinding! Look at this way, if you don’t land the 6 month deal, I would think that Murphy & Goode would at least keep you aboard to do some of their voice over work. Good luck!

Margie,

Thank you so much. Trust me when I say that having readers like you
weigh in and wish me well has made this entire public debacle well worth
it – whatever the outcome. It’s good to meet you as well and do keep
coming back.
