“Matryoshka Principle”: a similarobjects fundraiser

At its simplest, the Russian nesting doll is symbolic of a chain; linking generations until you find the baby nestled in the center. Despite these dolls being similar objects, what we hope to explore are the things that make each generation different from the next: with each link in the chain being made at a different point in time, it follows that the materials and methods should change alongside their surroundings. With every layer that is shed (or regrown), we move through a series of gains and losses, adapting our perspective and approach to music with the goal of enhancing each link, and ultimately growing as an artist. There is no perfect progression, but via this belief hope to remain connected to ourselves at all times, and not only grow in the present, but also build upon our past; finally attaining a clearer sense of direction within the ever-encroaching future.

similarobjects has been selected as one of the artists to represent the Philippines at Taiwan’s LUCfest, and could greatly use your support to help raise funds for the travel expenses. Of course I would not be where I am now without the support of my listeners: as a form of thanks I will be giving away free copies of my 7inch Vinyl RAW PHILIPPINE LOVE SONGS BEAT TAPE to everyone that comes to the event (as long as supplies last) and in the spirit of community have organized this show alongside other artists that I love and owe aspects of my growth to. We hope that you can come through and share your time, but most importantly celebrate this with us.
