Planning period

The day after the pictures on the mayor Abdul Rahman Belaf he left the hospital.

Regarding my work the equipment delivery seem to take longer time than expected unfortunately. Since the distributors in Dubai usually do not have all items in stock this can be the situation. However this leaves opportunities to develop the plans and work methods. Technical work can always be improved. The limit is mainly time and budget.

The plans for 2007 are huge and include many projects in different areas. However more on this when the plans have been put in practice. What we are doing in the meantime is to work on the basis to educate in computer and to find suitable premises and other requirements and good trainers and teachers.

For example I am investigating the market for new materials for building the studios. As until now they have been built by the classical way a with wooden frame and MAM(Mass Air Mass) principle. The materials could have better quality and special acoustic material is not even available. So this is the reason for searching new ways.

An example could by to build the walls with these materials, but they have their up and down sides. There are many factors that have to be considered in building a studio and in the construction work. This is not my area of profession since I am electronics engineers but in Kurdistan things work different. As said before you have to consider all aspects during the work for achieving the goal, a studio with right acoustics properties within the budget and time line.







Studios are fascinating because you can never get it perfect. It is always a balance between the factors that was mentioned. In our plans we have music studios also. However the radio stations usually have less requirements in acoustic properties. This since it does not require advanced mixing and mastering techniques and monitoring requirements.





More information will be provided later when the work has started.




We were in Ranye during the weekend to follow up some various works. One of them was a water well constructed for this dried out soccer field.





Hotel Chwar Chra or Texas?
