Check out the Ames window illusion here to see how our perception of depth and motion can be manipulated by this clever trick of perspective. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/VkxThB_f3ik

This song is inspired by the Ames window illusion, an optical trick that plays with our perception. Created by Adelbert Ames Jr., the illusion makes a trapezoidal window appear as if it’s rotating continuously, but in reality, it seems to reverse direction. Our brains, relying on assumptions about familiar shapes, struggle to correctly interpret this visual information. Musically, this song mirrors the concept of perception versus reality, blending soft acoustic guitar, rhythmic synth overlays, and layered vocals to explore how easily our minds can be tricked.

A frame so strange, a window in disguise,
What we see confuses the mind’s sharp eyes.
It turns and twists in an endless loop,
Our brains can’t escape this optical spoof.

Through the Ames window, what’s left is right,
The world’s spinning circles, it’s out of sight.
We know it’s wrong, but it feels so real,
The truth hides behind what our eyes reveal.

It’s just a trick, a simple play,
A shifting shape that leads us astray.
We try to trust what our eyes suggest,
But the brain whispers, “This is just a test.”

Through the Ames window, what’s left is right,
The world’s spinning circles, it’s out of sight.
We know it’s wrong, but it feels so real,
The truth hides behind what our eyes reveal.

Round and round it goes, defying all we know,
The mind battles with the show, questioning the flow.
Do we trust the brain, or do we trust our eyes?
In the Ames illusion, there’s a twist to every prize.

Through the Ames window, what’s left is right,
The world’s spinning circles, it’s out of sight.
We know it’s wrong, but it feels so real,
The truth hides behind what our eyes reveal.

So don’t believe everything you see,
For the Ames window plays tricks on you and me.
In the end, it’s just a clever game,
A trick of the mind, but it’s never the same.

Through The Ames Window

I stand tall with dirt and sand
Pyramids rise from my hand
We'll conquer all this land
Me plus you take my hand

What will I build with dirt and sand
Pyramids rise from my hand
We'll conquer all this land
Me plus you take my hand

What will I build with dirt and sand
Pyramids to reach the sky I stand
Together we conquer this land
Me plus you take my hand
Me plus you take my hand

Raindrops fall but we don't care
Building dreams in the open air
Side by side a perfect pair
Me plus you no despair

What will I build with dirt and sand
Pyramids rise from my hand
We'll conquer all this land
Me plus you take my hand

What will I build with dirt and sand
Pyramids to reach the sky I stand
Together we conquer this land
Me plus you take my hand
Me plus you take my hand

Stars above our guiding light
Through the dark and through the night
We stay strong and hold on tight
Me plus you we will fight

What will I build with dirt and sand
Pyramids rise from my hand

What will I build with dirt and sand
Pyramids to reach the sky I stand
Together we conquer this land
Me plus you take my hand

We Build Pyramids

lyrics:

verse 1

Ill be there for you
When you hurt and I heal
Its mended right around your neck 
Fragile pink and steal  

our love
Every day love 
Right above your O N shirt
Its all your heart that I feel

chorus 1

I feel ive been there before
I see your point of view
I hear your brightest or 
The darkest parts of you

I copy taste your thoughts all on  
im not letting go 
I smell makes me hold on
And im not letting go

verse 2

I hope you see through my lens in  
For you throw my only 5 cents in 
Im Second to last like why?
I emptied pockets and I 
I dont have a lot on me, 
My pennys are all I got
think outloud my thoughts with you 
My pennys are all my thoughts 

they are numb
but with you I feel ive I feel I’ve
Ive been there too I feel ive I feel I’ve

chorus 2

I feel ive been there before
I see your point of view

Thirsty For The Beat

"Charge the World" is more than just a song—it's a movement, an energia (energy) revolution! Imagine a world where every step you take, every movimiento (movement), powers up the future. Inspired by the breakthrough MoveCharge idea, this song captures the rhythm of progress and innovation, where energia cinética (kinetic energy) becomes the force that lights up our lives.

With its high-energy pop beats, this track is designed to mover (move) you, both physically and mentally. From the streets of New York to the avenues of Tokyo, from the jungles of Amazonia to the deserts of Sahara, this song unites the poder (power) of every motion around the globe.

"Charge the World" is a celebration of the potencia (power) within us all—an anthem for the doers, the dreamers, and the movers who will elevar (lift) the world to new heights.

Feel the vibe. Join the movimento. Energía, puissance, poder, all in one song.

Charge the World

You're Down

Jestem na Tik-Toku.

"Crossroads" is a heartfelt farewell song that captures the essence of moving on from a past relationship.
With atmospheric elements and emotive vocals, this track takes you on a journey of reflection, acceptance, and embracing the unknown future.
The female voice adds depth and emotion, making it an inspiring and cinematic experience.
Stay tuned for more, as I'm also working on a track that features myself, but that's for later.

Crossroads

At the Beginning of the New Event

I played this improvisation yesterday and realized part of the melody quotes a piece by my late Chapman Stick teacher, Greg Howard. This song is dedicated to him.
