What if you could see car crashes before they happened? What if you could side-step danger with extrasensory perception and avoid all trauma and PTSD for the rest of your life? Would you want to?

Homework for week 1 of an Ableton course with Femme House! To be edited in the coming days. Hold this space and thanks for listening.

You See It In People

For the past several years I've been trying not to censor myself in my art making process. What that has come to is that I share much less, and what I put online is only a small sliver of the art that I make.

I think this is one of my favorite songs that I've ever made(and the last I made on Garageband before switching over to Ableton) yet I've been so hesitant to share it. I'm still considering the nature of art as therapy and therapy as art. 

If I use art as a therapeutic non-performative practice does that make me less of an artist? How much is casual sharing oversharing? To what limits do I want to exist online and why do I feel the drive to share this song now as opposed to earlier or later? Who cares? What are the pros and cons of sharing and not sharing?

eRecords are a series of digital editions which aim to transform the digital format into something that can be experienced in a similar way to a listener’s interaction with a real, whitelabel vinyl record. Each edition includes a special PDF scrapbook including polaroids and liner notes and you will only be able to find out more about the themes and ideas about each record, once you’ve downloaded them.
