Virtues is an ongoing multidisciplinary collaboration initiated by Rami George and J. Midden, with design collaboration by Joshua Hauth. Begun in 2019, the project seeks to sonically and visually reinterpret a series of esoteric line drawings originally produced by the Samaritan Foundation, a New Age religious community Rami’s family was involved with in the early 1990s.
Virtues is currently comprised of Virtues vol. 1, the first EP in a planned series of three with accompanying 3D animations by Mak Hepler-Gonzalez; Virtues vol. 1—Live Remix, two sets from a 2021 exhibition and live performance in Philadelphia, PA; and Virtues vol. 1—Remixed & Reinterpreted, a 17 track remix album by 15 different musicians with music videos by 17 different artists and collaborative duos.
