Chords in Harmony
“Through the Leaves” –|– Anthony Satori
“I trust if your life is right, the right things will happen at the right time. If the chords are in harmony inside, I think other things will happen in the same way. That would have sounded pretentious to me once, but I believe it now.”
– Gene Wilder
New Colors
“Blue Peacock” –|– Anthony Satori
“She told me a bit of madness is key, to give us new colors to see. Who knows where it will lead us? And that’s why they need us. So here’s to the rebels, the ripples from pebbles, the painters and poets and plays. And here’s to the fools who dream, as crazy as they may seem. And here’s to the hearts that break.”
– Damien Chazelle (La La Land)

The Mystical Nature of Music
“Golden Conch Shell” –|– Anthony Satori
“Music has always been a matter of Energy to me, a question of Fuel. Some people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel. I have always needed Fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music playing very loudly on the radio.”
— Hunter S. Thompson
The music of the conch shell, for many cultures, has for millennia been the means for calling together the community for celebration, ritual, or a collective endeavor of some kind. For other cultures, it has represented a musical entreaty to communicate with the supernatural world. And for other cultures still, the conch produces nothing less than the sound from which the very universe was created.
The True Fountainhead
“Drink Deeply” –|– Anthony Satori
“For true love is inexhaustible; the more you give, the more you have. And if you go to draw at the true fountainhead, the more water you draw, the more abundant is its flow.”
— Antoine de Saint-Exupery
