• Shastayama (Mt. Shasta, California) | August 1, 2015
• Sea of Dreams (New York, New York) | ARCHIVAL SITE
  • Sound is the universal sensation and the binding force that connects us with one another. The blind can hear and even the deaf can feel the rhythms and frequencies of sound waves. We use the term “connection” to describe the feelings of friendship, love, and affinity but some would have us believe that these “connections” are actual vibrating strings bound up as we develop affinities. If this is true then we are indeed connected by frequency, and bound by sound. As you enjoy Sea of Dreams this year, we ask that you think about all of the times that sound and frequency connected you to others. Our wish for you on this New Years Eve is to feel, hear, and perhaps even see the frequencies that connect us all, and make a few of your own.
