"The Disruptor Suite" is one of many creative reflections from democracy TBD, a series of scenario planning working groups designed to help the Democracy Fund keep pace with the rapid and unpredictable changes to social, political, and economic systems. Democracy Fund wanted to start thinking through how the current pandemic, racial unrest, and election concerns might spark a cycle of disruption and reorganization. Which aspects of our democratic system might prove more resilient, and which might be fundamentally altered.   This working group consisting of architects, professors, journalist, organizers, urban planners, strategists, futurists, artists, policy directors, and researchers were led by Democracy Fund, Dot Connector studio, and 8 bridges workshop in two facilitated discussion sessions.   The first session was around events that could trigger systems level disruptions. Participants picked a disruptor to think and imagine across the STEEP+C sectors which is looking at the possible intended/ unintended negative and positive impacts of a disruptor from a Societal, Technological, Environmental, Economic, Political, and Creative lens.   In the second session there was reflection on the potential impact of a given disruptive event using the Democracy Funds Healthy Democracy Framework. The disruptor chosen for this song was defunding the police state. The soundscape created by Medium Zach is a suite consisting of six parts capturing all of the elements of the STEEP+C sectors. This song was done in the spirit of Gang Starr’s “I’m the Man”, and “Speak Ya Clout”  .

A fine young gent with a lyrically rhythmic bent. Flows be heaven sent sinners just repent. Don't be a degent listening to only djent.

Hey if you scrolled down this far you've come to my Official SC page. I've been rapping since 2015-2016 onward pushing myself and my craft writing and rehearsing exhaustively. (I had a gig in Vancouver as my first official performance in 2018) As of 2021 I've yet to have the pleasure of working with other artists or learning the ways of bands that heavily rely on instruments.

To me, my voice is an instrument. And that's what I have at the ready so that's how it might stay for a hot minute. Just know I'm doing what I can working with fellow emcees/producers and the improvements are not far away.

I haven't put much money into making music but all I know is that it's not about profit but making your Kinfolk happy is most important. Those who know, know.

Thank you,

Eric Dooley AKA Aeon Acrux

Gideon Graves the films main villain:


"Well, if my cathedral of cutting-edge taste holds no interest for your tragically Canadian sensibilities, then I shall be forced to grant you a swift exit from the premises... and a fast entrance into hell!"
