"PARTS OF ONE"
Music Video

We are one. How am I to know you, but through my own understanding of you? How am I to understand you, but through my own understanding of myself? When I see you, I am using my lens, so am I seeing you? Or myself?

"Cool Down"
Music Video

Sometimes, when we are agitated, we are ignited by the heat of the moment, which can engulf our thinking and emotional states. Our egos fan the flames of our agitation, making matters worse, not better. In order to soothe and solve, we need to cool down. We need to quiet our burning passion with the cool rain of clarity.

(ɑːˈkɑːʃə) NOUN: the ether, regarded as including material and nonmaterial entities in a common medium.

The word Aakasha has evolved from Akash, and finds its essence in the Sanskrit root word, “as”, meaning “to be”. It also encompasses, and translates to, "primary substance"–that which existed before the evolution of the five essential elements (earth, water, fire, air, and space), and forms the core of all things in the universe.
