the library
The Main St. Music Library is a platform that publishes music recorded by Aaron Comeau. It is a structure that stimulates creation within a few simple parameters. These consist primarily of design principles developed with Hood & Searle It grew out of conversations & classes at the The McLuhan Institute, with initial designs & consultation by Cheval.
The library materials form an instruction manual for finding some ground in the current vortex—for locating one's figure on the virtual main street. They offer a map of time future contained in time past, comprising a detailed history of the present.
The concepts of creation they explore will be detailed and easily duplicated. Most will be licensed under Creative Commons CC BY-SA 4.0. Musicians, artists, & listeners are encouraged to borrow freely from the library and return the materials in a different form than they found them.
Library volumes are principally distributed via Bandcamp and Nina Protocol.
In this electric age, we see ourselves being translated more and more into the form of information, moving toward the technological extension of consciousness.
