Projects>> Current Concerted Efforts
Each project is a learning experience for us as artists, working together to realize our common goal. We learn together and take risks together, working toward our common goals of art distribution and community growth.

The Abyss.
The debut album from Water. Guitar duo exploring the mystical and transcendent elements of their day-to-day lives. The disc has been pressed. We have it in hand, available now.
Water site for clips and details. | Available for purchase on CDBaby
Over the course of this project, we learned a lot about how to put together and produce an album. To top it all off, the whole project was assembled remotely. Chris and Cliff are in Colorado, Paul is in California, Jon is in Portland, and Dan is in Baltimore. The distance extended the project's timeline, but Chris and Cliff were patient to the last, and are now distribute the album all over the world!!
A huge debt of gratitude goes out to Jon who put up the seed money for this project. We honor him for taking this risk. Thanks Jon! You rock! Check it out and support these guys by purchasing a handful. Music makes a great gift.

The People's Art Database Project
Click to enter
We've been shown amazing art by friends and strangers on the street, in their livingrooms, bedrooms, kitchens, schools. In most cases, this art is still moldering in those dark, secret places. Chances are very good that YOU have writing, pictures, or sounds that you have created and put away somewhere, out of sight. This databse project is our attempt to make it as simple as possible (and completely free) for you to post and manage your own art. We want to see it, and we are not the only ones.
We do not want ownership or copyright or any other sort of control of anyone's art. If particular work is especially popular with us or our viewing public, the artist may be offered gallery space on one of our partner websites. If it goes on being popular, and funding is available we may offer to produce a package.
What's stopping you from posting your own work? How can we make it easier or more appealing? Let us know.

Artist Packages.
At all times, we are reviewing our submissions, and choosing works we especially believe in to center a package around. We provide funding (when available) and services to create a piece with an artist, with the understanding that we will keep a portion of the outcome (product, ticket sales, etc). We use our portions to fund the next project.
The Water album and the Corkland website started this way.
