Hi Hi.
For those of you who haven’t met me yet, I’m Clear. Pronouns they/he. I’m a multi-dimensional observer, a vibrational artist, and for now, a human.
This is an experiment.
In the days and months to come, I will be shedding light upon the lived stories informing my 5-track EP, Fairies: Act I, all in retrospective vision.
Now my friends - don’t think that, just because we’re looking back, we aren’t moving forwards. This offering comes after a great reckoning; if I am to transparently share my stories, I must first eradicate the hindrance of shame within myself. One thing you are learning about me, is how devoted I am to this process, this (re)learning to exist. I have a right to be who I Am. I belong here on Earth, and I am right on time. And for perhaps the first time in my life, I am committed to breathing here.
My mentor Enrico told me that the most iconic artists (say Michael Jackson, Madonna) actually have the smallest egos. Wild, right? Get this: if an ego’s utility is to try and protect it’s Self by seeking out potential dangers (like what other people might do, say, or think about it’s Self-expression), then choosing to share one’s uniquenesses is acting in opposition to a big ego’s better judgment. Under this framing, an artist’s ego must be small, tucked aside, and out of the way of the Creator, in order for that Creator to be expressed, and share.
I am getting out of my own way.
This body of work chronicles my time spent in identification with womanhood, up ‘til coming into a non-binary, or as I prefer to say multi-gender expansiveness. 5 songs, 5 moments decorating timeless attunement; a modern day trans-male gay-fairy’s fairytale. May this Act demonstrate the path to clarity that I have uncovered.
Each sonic snapshot will include adjacent provisions of visual aid, inviting your own Self-realizations to bubble to a conscious surface. Immersive worlds, multi-dimensional collaborations, and evocative vibration-scapes are the mediums. (Though it is perhaps redundant to say so; as isn’t this to be said of all existence, anyways?)
I weave through these tales: of toxic marriage and emancipatory divorce (Fine Diamonds), sensual healing and sex magic (Wide Open Ocean), ancient matriarchy and goddess ritual (Sea the Signs), gender transcendence and embracive aging (So Much More), connecting with nature and connecting with Self (Prophecy of the Morning Dew)…and as I do so, I become more transparent, more Clear, more free. Telling these stories via web3 directly communicates to my tender and holy Self: you deserve to be here. You deserve to be seen. You deserve to be compensated. You deserve to exist, to survive, and to thrive. You are worthy. You are enough.
And the same is true of you, my friends. May we reflect shining examples of what is possible back to one another, in and as collective ascension. Indeed, this body of work is equally about the process of creating as it is about the processes of sharing and receiving with you.
We are connected.
As we welcome in the new paradigm, the Age of Aquarius, and undeniably, the next iteration of our species, we know that potential is infinite; never to be reached, ever to be explored. Abundance is exponential, as is our Joy. We access these states now, through the limitless powers of our focused attention. Thank you for sharing yours with me here, now :)) Can you tell that I Love You?
My purpose is to enjoy this evolution. Ancient-futurists, joyful optimists, would you like to join me? This is just the beginning…
And now, for now, I present to you…Fairies: Act I
