There is a foggy future for the music album, and Spitzer Space Telescope & friends are charging into it. Your pledges will help redefine the music album by funding Spitzer Space Telescope's completely digital interactive video album project --
Inspired by the YouTube video playlist, this album will consist of ten Spitzer Space Telescope songs performed by various musicians and actors. Each will be filmed and rusticated to look like lost clips of footage from a range of different eras and media.
The project aims to free users from any hard copy of this SST album while still satisfying their desire to physically handle the packaging, information and album artwork. By totally embracing the digital form, this project presents fresh new ways for listeners to interact with the music.
With shooting already underway, your donations will help me fund 3-4 more video tracks which will continue early this summer in Chicago, IL. Your donations will help cover the costs of:
-hiring video/sound crew
-hiring performers
-renting a large space to be used as a sound stage
-transporting crew
-buying props/costumes/set dressing
These are massive expenses and will only account for a small part of the entire project. However, with the huge push that your pledges will give to this album, I have no doubt that it will lead to more opportunities to complete it.
With a year of hard work on this already, I am ready to push this project for as many more as it takes. Let's over-fund this thing

ways you can help for free:
1. I will be working on this project in Chicago, and will need to start looking for a large, unbroken, lofty space that I can turn into a sound stage for a month or two. If you have any ideas, or any leads, feel free to let me know
