I'm a painter first, I see what I do with sound as an extension of my visual painting. Sonic painting, if you will. I am coming out of a long fallow period with the sound work, been painting like a madman for the last 3 years.
Personally to make a series of CD albums and to collaborate with like minded individuals in satisfying projects.
I'd be more likely to bring people's attention to the one we already have and how easily we could lose it all by blindly following leaders.

Not qualified... I don't really consider myself a musician but more a sound painter, and arranger of sounds into layered scapes. I have not paid the dues of hours of practice as a child or teen.
I have no idea... I will let you know, I just joined.
