Free Life Communication: Web 2.0
I’m naming my blog after the ‘70s NYC (New York City) musicians’ cooperative I became president of because the spirit of creative collaboration and the lowering of entropy through the creative use of minimal resources liberated/freed the maximum amount of positive energy. Through the music we communicated a message that you needed positive energy to create a new healing message so as to heal old wounds and make people whole. My objective with this blog is to throw out ideas and to invite comment that is positive and constructive to initiate debate over thoughts and reflections on a wide range of topics. We will communicate and liberate energy that will delimit life. Thus Free, Life, Communication: FLC, the coop, was founded by NYC musicians wanting to play “the music,” not to make money, but to explore new compositional and expressive concepts. It evolved as an organization, then suffered a decline; in its the time the loft jazz movement expanded until loft jazz in NYC produced several loft jazz festivals. Many “unknown” artists found a platform to explore areas that were non-commercial, and known artists were able to expand their concepts. I was able to produce a number of records as a part of a larger “indie” movement on my own record label—4th Stream Records, and founded my own publishing company—ERG Publishing Company. Now I want to reproduce the feeling of involvement but this time through the larger medium of public participation made possible by the net. So, if anything stimulates reflection and creative process overtakes mundane productivity as a result of anything I write—join the movement! And comment!
