Anaïs here. Sounds like Ana is — multi-disciplinary artist, vocalist, composer, esoteric & healing arts adept. Coming soon is a new website dedicated to spiritual embodiment. I believe wise cultures emerge from contemplation of oneness among self, nature and cosmic patterns. If you are curious about how attunement plays out in one's lived experience, subscribe to my AÏM newsletter. 
This website showcases my archives and works-in-progress. Feel free to reach out and request additional documentation! There is a lot to chew on here though... so, take your time exploring!

listen to the rain 
an 8 movements meditation for string quartet, n'goni & voices
pre-order double vinyl

I've invited you to an unusual listening experience unfolding over a year. Each movement from listen to the rain was released in alignment with the 8 forces — which form the base for the I Ching, or Book of Changes' timeless wisdom. The so-called "Earthly Order" was accompanied by curated playlists & seasonal reflections. Head over here ENG / FR to listen to the current season's playlist, see pictures from the NYC release party featuring a film installation by Sean Webley & learn more about the project.
Below is a 3'33" trailer of listen to the rain in the "Heavenly Order": a sacred sequence of the 8 forces from the Taoist inner alchemy practice known as the Fusion of the 5 Elements 
— it is how the full piece is meant to be experienced live.
