One Night Music in the Chico news and Review

Back on November 18th, 2009 Skylar and Josh at The Frame filmed a live performance of Mark Growden for the first One Night Music session from Chico, CA. Jason Cassidy, the Arts Editor of Chico News and Review, found himself in attendance. After the performance I conversed with him to find that he had already done his research on One Night Music and had taken a liking to the project. A month later, Ken Smith, an arts and music writer for the paper, has created this excellent article on One Night Music. The article begins (quoted from The Chico News and Review article by Ken Smith):

Today’s efforts to consolidate communication, art and technology are too often misdirected. Emphasis is placed on creating the latest, best-selling, hyper-charged sensory assault rather than to preserve, enhance and share the human experience, which is presumably why we figured out how to do these things in the first place.

Ryan Andersen and his cohorts at One Night Music, a Web site dedicated to showcasing live performances, seem to understand this well. Each session presented on the site is filmed, recorded and displayed on the Web accompanied by still photos, illustrations and written commentary about the artist and performance. The effect is to place the viewer as close to being there as possible.
