Must have some sort of product on the first day.  If not approved in 2 days,
then it's given to another composer.

Well that's a great gig to get if you want to get paid to experiment writing
Stravinsky complexity arrangements that take 2+ months! Hehe tho I am sure
they would kick your butt out after a few days and no product :p

That is what they are pushing for.  It's because they have 3 composing rooms
that are going unused, and they know they can really screw over composers
and get 'em very cheap by making them come in.

Chris -- I have heard that Scripps is no longer even using "independent"
composers for their custom work.  All such work now requires the composer to
come on site, compose/produce the music using Scripps' facilities, and the
composer is paid HOURLY for his work -- no more per-project fees.

Can you verify?
