Hi guys, my name is Leah Kaplan. This video is for George and Ivan in Miami, Florida. This is who I am; this is what I do; and I hope you like it.

Oh, one more thing: for friends and associates of Spectral Works, if you can kindly record one minute—not more—of your video, say who you are, what you do.

This is me and my favorite people, my two sons, Nicholas and Alex. I like to draw, paint, photograph, and write music. I have been writing music for the last 26 years, working for a company called Salieri Music, and I also write, perform in restaurants—all restaurants—I do karaoke shows and host many other events, and have hosted many.

I love photography and I have been working in the photo studio since 1997. I placed the musical instruments and I create virtual studio instruments. Here's one called Score Effects, and then I created another one five years after this one, which came out to critical acclaim and got five stars in Sound on Sound magazine and nine out of 10 stars in Keyboard magazine.

The following shots show Sound on Sound magazine, where they awarded me five out of five stars, and just Google searches on Elastic and UberShell. UberShell is the German company that signed me up for the virtual instrument.

Here is something that I stumbled onto called Walter Russell's Periodic Table, which I saw something in a dream that led me to start writing, and I've thus written about 1,700 pages in the last four months. Here are the notebooks—I have thirteen of them. This one specifically deals with light and how it bounces and reflects. The next one deals with drawing, which led me to discover, for myself, a new drawing method and style. This book specifically shows this drawing style and the step-by-step instructions, or an instruction manual that I'm writing as a book, and there's a video course on YouTube.

This is my band that I had in 1998 and some shots from a music video that we shot with a budget of zero dollars and zero cents, but in 1999, it was cool. Here are some more shots from the video, and this is a review of my movies—the movies that I've written music for.

Here's my IMDb page and a couple of movies that I did music for that made it to Hollywood. My SoundCloud page with a view of 20 of my songs; a site where I gave away free, royalty-free music. This project needs funding, but is a good idea. My articles are printed in Si News. About 330 of my tracks are being sold on NeoSounds.com, Music.com. All in all, I have about 900 tracks of my own.

These are my five CDs that I wrote with Gianna Molla Chesky. These are some shots from the graphics work that I did for working for the gas company and for a company called NearLetter.com. This is for Topia, my concept for one of their projects. This is for Polite Magazine. Here, just shots from all sorts of: On Route Magazine, Time Magazine, Wall Street Journal, The Art Gallery of Ontario, a very rare Canon printer, Constant Festival, Canada Post.

Here's a page from SoundCloud where I have about 20 of my songs. A page out of my drawing book. This is my physics work, Walter Russell's Periodic Table, something that I saw in a dream. This is the exact shot that I drew that night, and then I stumbled onto his physics. He was a pitcher and a mighty, mighty book. This is some awesome shots from my club work, my restaurant work, Halloween, my carvings, I don't know, like pictures and drawings. That's pretty much it.

Following is a message from my friends: Gravity, Miserliness, Military, Over Here Bowie Report of Toronto. Now, Dan Hua Mian, yeah, as an attorney, effective writer, I suspect successor, I suspect reward, but the Commerce Committee, cup, Lana Turner, yah, Roberto, but ceiling PR and marketer, just pay Academy, Musical Star School, Star School Academy, attacked Sam, ever share whispers, Nakajima digits e to the negative Italian place which rested, C Rancic of a drug arrest record, he ever shall a minute get.

These are shots from illness performance and performances. My friends and our main sponsor, now national events venue and bank in which we are hosting celebratory or a concert on me. Someone of my optics work or a 3D holographic projector and my show on dependency being a go-live CD called, F I'm Fat, which is called Me for a Day. And that's pretty much it. So I hope you guys enjoyed seeing what I do, what I've done over the last 25-30 years, and I can work together. Thank you. [Music] [Music]
