g howe consulting
This is a revival of the business name that I started to use about in 1988 when I was creating and publishing PC software.  The new version of g howe consulting finally combines my three favorite creative areas (Computers, Photography and Music) after years of trying to keep them apart.  Recent major advances in digital photography and digital recording techniques made the difference.

A few years ago I bought a digital camera.  In a day or so it was mounted on a tripod as an integral part of my drumset.  I was a member of the orchestra for a three week run of Oklahoma!  At times I was playing drums with one hand and photographing the action on the stage with the other.  And I was able to email pictures from my computer to members of the cast, later that night!  Obviously, the computers, music and photography in my life were on a collision course.

Some of my ongoing projects include:
•   Production of CDs from some historically significant jazz tapes
•   Experiments leading to a CD containing software that creates sound pertaining to a breakthrough technology in Agriculture!  I've been on the fringe of this project since 1994.  There have been some recent discoveries and developments that are lookin' real good!   
•   A possible ebay connection from this web site  (see Photography / Art, Antiques and collectibles).  Yes, there is art for sale.
•   Of course I have my musical obligations, as a percussionist,  to the Auburn Symphony, Music & More Theatrical Productions, and random Jazz gigs.

But even with all of the above, my schedule is somewhat flexible and I am available to help some more friends and neighbors with some "Assistance in Consumer Technology"  So  I generated "The Ad".

The Ad, (on the left),  is an introduction to some "services" that I can offer.  It is not an all inclusive list but some suggestions to get you to think -- "Gee, if he can do that, perhaps he can solve our problem."  I welcome new projects, new challenges.           Please call.
