Song by Ian Tassin (feat. James Cassidy)
Ian Tassin
Biography: Originally from a small town in a part of Louisiana known as Cancer Alley, for exactly the reasons you would expect, I have always been drawn to the escapism of stories in all forms. Stemming from a life-long interest and love I wrote and published a series of rulebooks for a TTRPG called Apotheosis a few years ago. More recently, my attention has turned to prose and poetry writing as I have been working on a collection of short-stories and poetry with the aim of publishing within the next two years.
Artist Statement: SOIL! (write this down) is a song I made with samples of lectures from OSU’s own professor James Cassidy. The song is centered on soil, the foundation of all life and all our human experiences, and of course, the medium in which roots exist.
