Bandarikin means American in Icelandic. Its a name that reflects how others outside the united states see Americans. The BandAriKin Project is giving voice to Truth, igniting passion and compassionate wholeness through collective singing. From writing music and producing videos that help bridge the divide in our world, to teaching vocal improvisation for life-affirming positive change. The additional aim is to produce and showcase songs of value with the intent of bringing the power of feeling good and by believing in the power of song and voice to carry us through these times, with activated voices rising up in song, for the fulfillment of opening our hearts to the exponential power and magic of the present.
How do we do it? By bringing musical offerings across multiple interfaces with people. Through conducting circle singing and vocal improvisation workshops. As well as, writing, producing, recording and publishing music and content with the intent of bringing love into form. We also see music's role as one of opening hearts, minds and want to be part of that.
During the pandemic, we made two music videos,
Volunteer for love and
Red, White and Blue and multiple interactive singing content videos with the aim of inspiration to others. Additionally, songs were written and recorded for the purpose of easing the cultural and political divides. Also, provided are sustained efforts to bring communities together in song in northern California. All in all, the project called Bandarikin has a mission of bringing Love into Form through creative endeavors in public spheres like live music, online interaction, and creating audio and video that useful in our world. If fiscal sponsorship from a benefactor or a collective of benefactors emerges, it will mean more time available to devote to these types of projects. And, until then self - funding through other work is sustaining our intent.
