Glenn Weyant and composers from Net New Music and ImprovFriday have joined to donate works towards a CD of new compositions.
One hundred percent of the proceeds from the sale of these tracks will go
to support www.foodforthepoor.org, a 4 Star Charity which according to Charity Navigator has 96% of their funds going to directly to buying food. $20 will allow them to buy 100 pounds of beans and rice. That’s a lot!
I have submitted my work ‘enigmatic x – transmission’ towards the project. For further information, or to download and donate towards Haitian relief, please visit http://sonicanta.bandcamp.com/.

I've spent an inordinate amount of time playing with the healthBase beta, which claims to be NetBase's 'research solution for healthcare', since reading this forum entry on TheDailyWtf.com.
