The Wayfarer Project

I produced the Sanctuary video a year ago. The piece was composed in 1995, and the album was released in 2000. So this really has been a long time in paying homage to the meaning of the music. When it was first composed, I put it to the side after Wayfarer stopped performing live for a few years. I re0started Wayfarer 4 years later and brought the song back into existence. Even though I had aged and so did my compositional skills, I still felt the piece was strong enough to continue in the new Wayfarer at the time.

Last summer, when I produced the video, I did so because the imagery from the original artwork was still powerful in my mind. I used Flash to create various animations and then put the animations together in Sony Vegas, utilizing filters to bring more magic to the imagery that emphasized the meaning of the music.

The piece, Sanctuary, like the album by the same name marks the beginning spark of inspiration that started Wayfarer music. Now that Wayfarer is at a new beginning, once again, this video marks the next step in bringing forth new multimedia and pieces to mark the continued growth of Wayfarer.

The Wayfarer Project is now a Wordpress blog.  This will allow for more communication and a better community atmosphere for the visitors and listeners of Wayfarer music.  All of the music has been imported over as well as the artwork and videos.
