The reason I wanted to set music to this photo (and subsequent painting) is perhaps with the same wonder and fascination of the original artist. This style of architecture (the dingbat, each with a unique signature) is decidedly Southern California: modern, streamlined, care-free, "breezy", and leisurely. ("Beautiful blue skies and golden sunshine--all along the way...")

At the beginning of the piece is one of David Lynch's daily weather reports, as a kind of DJ leader.

It's interesting that when I was doing the airy synth parts, the weather was exactly like the weather in L.A. per Lynch's weather report.
