Steven Churchill conceived and produced <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind%27s_Eye_%28series%29">The Mind's Eye</a> series of visual music DVDs. These videos featured the best computer animation from around the globe with original scores created by notable music artists James Reynolds, Jan Hammer, Thomas Dolby, and Kerry Livgren. The second video in this series, "Beyond The Mind's Eye," reached #8 on Billboard Magazine's home video sales chart, being qualified 'Multi-Platinum' by the RIAA. Among the four Mind's Eye videos that were produced, total sales exceeded two million units. The artists received massive media exposure and also were paid royalties, based upon half the income. Several of the Mind's Eye video clips can be viewed <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs2WXzcL4Wd_Ubo-Qht505Q">here</a>.Most recently, in 2024 a large arts organization in San Francisco called Gray Area asked Mr. Churchill to speak and give an AV presentation about The Mind's Eye. Details are available <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://grayarea.org/event/the-minds-eye-with-steven-churchill-screening">here</a>.

This topic is vast in its potential interpretations. One could think in societal, physical, political, or environmental terms. It could be a compositional or conceptual framework. We do not seek a literal illustration of the words, but rather an idea of a broader consideration of the shape we are in.
