I know it has been a long time since I have updated this blog, but as I settle in more at Stanford and begin to work on my Cambodia projects again, hopefully I will be posting here more often.
A current project I am working on is typing up various Dharma song manuscripts I came across during my stay in Cambodia. Several of them, such as this wonderful "smot journal" lent to me by Suon Bunrith of Amrita Performing Arts (www.amritaperformingarts.org), I was able to capture in the form of digital images. I am now in the process of typing some of the rarer songs into the computer with the Khmer Unicode font, which is a significant improvement over earlier imput methods.

That's wonderful, Trent. You have embarrassed a Cambodian like me who barely know anything about them. :) Keep it up, bro.
Yeah. It's a great work!
We encourage your research!
Thanks very much for your words of encouragement. It's always nice to hear that there are still smot fans out there.
:) I love Khmer poem and smot.. But my voice is just too ugly.. Hahaha.. I hope to hear you smot one day.
