Coming Alive on Venice Beach
Yes, a new energy of life is coming alive on the Gulf Coast. Not in the same sense of horrible or shocking new bacteria or yikes another bloom of something creeping in the ocean. No, this to me is more personal and quite beautiful.
In short, as a tech head or communication junkie. I’ve been designing graphics, websites, online communication portals and other technologies for at least three decades now. During these many years I’ve neglected many aspects of my life. As a creative person an actual artist I thought my creative juice was visual. I’ve spent most of my life focused on the video, graphics sphere of my brain. That all flipped at the beginning of 2025 when I entered into the ai world of creation. Taking small steps to learn and study, mostly in research and development (R&D), I dropped an old song I wrote into ai. This was a song I wrote in 1998. What ai, did to me during that was expose a whole new window of creative arts.
Back story: it seems like every 10 years in my life when I look back upon it I’ve made big changes in the direction that I moved forward in career development or just changes in my life. Well 10 years ago or maybe a little longer prior to moving to Florida, I almost moved to Nashville Tennessee to go to school at Dark Horse Institute for mixing music.
The Advanced Mixing Online Program from Dark Horse Institute is a 20-Week Certificate Program built on a real-world, hands-on, full-immersion approach to learning with a blend of convenient flexibility and personalized mentorship.
When that never happened, I just shook it off!
That was until my first production with a 30 year old song I scribbled down on paper and resurrected to a real song.
I view AI, as a tool, no different that software, mixing boards, computers, smartphones synthesizers and a pipe wrench for that matter.
Anyway, I’ve been writing on this subject for a while. You can search my Tags for ai to read other stories on ai that I’ve wrote.
This particular story is to introduce you to EVO, a virtual band that comes to life via ai. Their debut song and story start to unfold right here on my site.
Tidal Rush is the debut song that they sing to explain what it’s like to come alive and find new life on a beach in central Gulf coast Florida, much like I did.
