"With everything that has breath..."
STAGED - From My Garret online
channel was conceived when I became resigned to exploring the virtual world of performance, as I had witnessed other artists and organizations do not long after the world was turned on its head in 2020.
The idea of self-producing livestream music
events of any quality seemed a daunting task.
I took inspiration from the DIY, grassroots approach of Tim Crabtree's (Paper Beat Scissors) 'Daystreaming' channel which sets a high bar as
far as sound quality and interesting guests.
I mulled over the idea in the summer of 2021 and spoke to a few artists about being guests once the channel was a reality. Then in early November, the first episode was produced and finally, aired a month later, on December 15, 2021.
Hiding is the hidden purpose of creation. Bury your seed and wait... Rumi

"And if there come the singers and the dancers and the flute players, buy of their gifts also.
For they too are gatherers of fruit and frankincense, and that which they bring, though fashioned of dreams, is raiment and food for your soul." -The Prophet Khalil Gibran
