Retirement
After a few years of producing no new works, Harris officially announced his retirement from music composition on October 10, 2007. When asked if he would ever compose again he was quoted as saying "I am closing the door, but not all the way. Just in case I want to get back inside." His last composition was the Nachtmusik für Kinder in 2004. Harris is now a student at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh working toward a degree in Graphic Design. He also freelances, running his own design studio called Hypoxic Studios, and produces digital wallpaper for Windows and Mac computers. He has also published three books based on the World of Warcraft universe: Calevan & Thoninas, Dark Resurrection and Futures Past.

We may boldly spend, upon the hope
Of what is to come in.
