About
We have gathered a team of dedicated engineers, musicians, and story-tellers to design special programming with a custom web-interface to drive listener participation for a series of live-broadcasts capturing human stories on the waves of up-state NY
Impact
We are building a dedicated community of artists and technicians who can collaborate for live ensembles and imagine new ways of communication at the edge of embodied human performance and the rapidly developing space opened by Web 3.
Progress
After collecting our team, we have developed a custom backend to bridge user-input into the composition environment of our artists. This has coincided with the development of a secure stack for reliable transmission and archiving of each session.
Team
As project lead, I have a decade of experience in Digital Signal Processing and Music Education. In recent years, I have identified the need to bridge a gap between disparate energies in order to form real community across vast physical distance.

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
