This afternoon I went for drinks with the other Australians here at SxSW (there are a lot of them). Made a lot of contacts. I really am quite out of touch with the local scene—it's funny I have to come to Austin, Texas to meet music industry people that live in the same city as me!
I won't list people I talked to for fear of offending someone by omission but it was a good mixture of artists and managers. There is so much more I could be doing to promote myself as a composer and producer. I think foremost I just need to get a CD done to act as a calling card - much like Alibi Phone Network will become from a filmmaking perspective. I've also decided I need to find a record producer to mentor me so I've started putting out feelers here.
