Live-score Sample 1

Calm. The absolute foundation for obtaining and sustaining a healthy perspective and making healthy decisions. While there are many worthwhile goals, there is evidence to strongly suggest that the central catalyst to any goal being met is an individual's personalized focus on that one state, Calm, while in the process of manifesting the goal's varied tactical solutions.

We all need consistent and reliable mechanisms for decompressing from the demands of our daily lives as well as generating the grounded composure necessary to achieve our goals while maintaining human decencies and always valuing evidence and compassion. The Calm Culture live-score concept is TAP's offering to be one of those consistent and reliable mechanisms.

(This live-score represents the second of the two 30ish-minute, one-take recording sessions. Live mix and production by Doug Haire for Sonarchy Radio. Initially broadcast in November 2017 on KEXP 90.3FM in Seattle, WA. Sonarchy Radio is a Jack Straw Production.)

ABOUT
Founded in 2002, The Antenna Project provides Instrumental Live-scores (improvised context-specific audio compositions) for all variety of experiences. Amplified electric guitar, an effects pedal and various methods of interfacing are used to create full-registered music ranging from subdued waves of droning minimalism to exuberantly celebratory maximalism.

SUPPORT
If you find the efforts of The Antenna Project valuable and you are in a fortunate enough situation financially where you really don't need to think about money in increments under $20, please consider showing your personal appreciation by making a contribution.

But if you are in a situation where you pause to assess the spending of increments under $20, my appeal for financial support is not directed at you. Building a culture of sponsorship is important to me, to the success of this project, but it shouldn't be a culture of sacrifice. So please, only support my work in The Antenna Project if it feels easy. And if it doesn't feel easy, it's ok, don't worry about it, just enjoy the live-scores.
