Blank Space is an amazing entity; he seems to me the Wizard of Oz sometimes, working so hard behind the scenes to make it all seem seamless! Blank facilitates space for people to be open and free and to express themselves in a wonderful way. Through his own letting-go-of-ownership, he allows others to put their concerns and qualms to the wayside and leap headfirst into expression. Blank creates a safe space unlike any other I've experienced, wherein the collaborative community connection allows all to feel that they have been caught and held and warmly welcomed. He always has a loving smile, even at two in the morning with so much clean-up left to be done. Blank - you inspire me, thank you :)

Blank Space was inserted into my life during the Victoria Slam-off, a Slam competition to determine who would represent Victoria, BC in the Canadian Slam nationals. Since then he's livened up my life (and Victoria) through his dedication to co-creating music and community. We've had countless jams with various local and not-so-local talent; what a wonderful way to teach, learn & share.
Blank Space has also gone way out of his way to provide an opportunity for many independent artists (including myself) to record their material. Thanks so much!

about me
I've been writing music and words since the end of '98.
Since 2002 i've been recording and exploring the world of engineering & producing electronic beats. In 2005 i took my beatboxing to a new 'level' for myself. Now i'm engaged in tour planning and "being 'sustainable' as an independent artist.". Take a listen to the musik... please!! www.myspace.com/314blankspace blankspace.multiply.com youtube.com/user/314blankspace www.myspace.com/outspokenwordsmiths outspokenwordsmiths.multiply.com www.myspace.com/soapboxpoets --------------------------------------------- Blank Space aka J.Alex Murray is an independent artist who has been honing his skills for the last 7 years. He is known across Canada as a talented lyricist, spoken word artist and beatboxer. Blank Space holds the title, Halifax's 2006 DJ Olympics Beat Boxing champion, is one of the five members of the Beat Boxing Pirates as well as one fifth of the 2005 Victoria Slam Poetry Team. More recently Alex has toured Canada as one third of The Outspoken Wordsmiths and as half of The Soapbox Poets giving him the experience of over 100 shows and a dedicated fan bas in 11 Canadian cities. Though Alex is rooted just outside of Halifax, Nova Scotia (by his studio space & family) he still performs all over the Canada on a regular basis. By self-managing & organizing tours/events on his own, and with the help of others Alex sustains his life through his creative expressions. please contact me if you wanna work together or book me for a performance or workshop (beatboxing) 3.14blank.space@gmail.com ------------------------------------------ I believe that i can be completely self sustainable from my forms of expression. I also believe that free (uncensored) expression is a right. I believe in a change in the mainstream values we impose on ourselves and our children. There is no such thing as intellectual copyright in my world. There are no rights reserved on the art & expression i create because I believe that information & expression are created to be shared. So please take all music / pictures and information if you feel like it. Share with others that which you gain for yourself. I believe in you.
