| WPMP Ambassador Kat Epple performs at the Light Center
in Black Mountain Ambassador Epple takes her collection of flutes from around the world to delight the attending audience with the magic of her music and her commitment to peace.
August 11, 2008 following are a few images from Kat's North Carolina visit at the light center and a narrative in her own words. I had a GREAT time in North Carolina!! Hot summer days enhanced by fresh, juicy, cool peaches and fresh white corn sold by charming locals at a roadside produce stand. I enjoyed glimpses of a crystal clear river as it trickled, pooled, and thundered alongside the winding mountain road. Flowers, hummingbirds, and butterflies were inspiring. Black Mountain Light Center was an interesting concert venue, far away from anything but mountains and wilderness. You couldn't hear ANY traffic noise..... The dome had very interesting acoustics. It had a complex slap back that created a rhythm when I played flute, and the echo was different depending on where I stood in the dome. The dome dictated the tempo and rhythm of the music, if I didn't abide by that, then the dome would fight with the music. I also recorded a lot of very cool music with the guys. They live in a beautiful house on a mountainside in Hendersonville, NC.
Together, we, Peter, James, Nathan and Miko created a brand new sound which will be featured on our upcoming album, and at our concert in Lake Lure in October. Kat Epple

Dear friends, it is with great excitement that I introduce a new funding source for our collaborative project. Kalon Baquero has designed, created and launched a wonderful WPMP Gift Shop. The shop coincides with WPMP's implementation of Phase II of the project, the goal being the fabrication of the remaining 190 Peace Markers and the logistic work of pairing each Peace Marker with a corresponding Artist Ambassador around the world. Thank you Kalon. Tiité July 7, 2008
