We stand at the crossroads, each minute, each hour, each day, making choices. We choose the thoughts we allow ourselves to think, the passions we allow ourselves to feel, and the actions we allow ourselves to perform. Each choice is made in the context of whatever value system we’ve selected to govern our lives.                   Benjamin Franklin

This talk describes a journey of search that enabled author Viv Bartlett to navigate around the obstacles that he calls ‘materialistic minefields’. Spoken in a conversational style and often drawing on his personal experience, it nonetheless explores profound questions.

Among these are the views, opinions and attitudes of a society that has disconnected its thinking from higher realities, so that individuals everywhere are tending to sink into a materialistic way of life that is in the last resort deeply unsatisfying. The increase in materialistic assumptions about reality has also led to general scepticism about humanity’s capacity to rise to a higher level of civilization.

But the choice between a materialistic or a spiritual perspective is a daily personal one. Looking at history as an evolutionary process and drawing on the teachings of the Bahá’í Faith, Bartlett sees the ‘knowledge of the oneness of mankind and the fundamental oneness of religion’ as necessary and inevitable to the gradual emergence of the maturity of humankind.

"Chameleon Soul" is a captivating EP that explores the multifaceted nature of human identity and relationships. Through a fusion of dark pop, rock, trance, and trap elements, this collection of songs delves into themes of self-discovery, transformation, and the complexities of modern love.
Each track in this EP serves as a vibrant hue in the spectrum of human experience, reflecting the ever-changing nature of our emotions and perceptions. From the defiant assertion of individuality in "Chameleon Soul" to the cautionary tale of superficiality in "Poisoned Caramel," and the satirical take on materialism in "Sweet Deception," this EP offers a thought-provoking journey through the landscapes of the human psyche.
"Chameleon Soul" challenges listeners to embrace their authentic selves while navigating the often deceptive waters of social expectations and personal desires. It's an auditory exploration of what it means to be true to oneself in a world that constantly demands adaptation.

«Chameleon Soul» - це захоплюючий міні-альбом, який досліджує багатогранну природу людської ідентичності та стосунків. Завдяки поєднанню елементів темного поп, року, трансу та трепу, ця збірка пісень заглиблюється в теми самопізнання, трансформації та складнощів сучасного кохання.
Кожен трек на цьому міні-альбомі є яскравим відтінком у спектрі людського досвіду, що відображає мінливу природу наших емоцій та сприйняття. Від зухвалого утвердження індивідуальності в «Chameleon Soul» до застережливої історії про поверховість в «Poisoned Caramel» та сатиричного погляду на матеріалізм в «Sweet Deception», цей міні-альбом пропонує подорож, що спонукає до роздумів, ландшафтами людської психіки.
«Chameleon Soul» закликає слухачів прийняти своє справжнє “я” і водночас орієнтуватися у часто оманливих водах соціальних очікувань та особистих бажань. Це слухове дослідження того, що означає бути вірним собі у світі, який постійно вимагає адаптації.

Hadry jsou nejexcentričtější a nejexperimentálnější věc na Carpenterovi. Minimalistická produkce o pěti zvucích (Bass, SFX Pad, Kick a 2x Snare) na skoro sedmi minutách vytváří prostředí pro diss na konzumerismus, módní průmysl a nestřídmé utrácení za materialistické věci.

Я, Арна Логард, українська авторка пісень. Моя творчість охоплює різні жанри, включаючи альтернативний рок, поп та електронну музику.
У своїх текстах я досліджую теми самоідентичності, стосунків та соціальних змін. Мій підхід до створення музики включає експерименти з AI-технологіями, що дозволяє мені шукати нові форми музичного вираження.
На даний момент я випустила кілька альбомів українською та англійською мовами. Та продовжую працювати над своєю музикою, постійно шукаючи нові ідеї та звучання, прагнучи зробити свій внесок у розвиток сучасної української музики.

I just like making bangers for the homies
