PAR AVIAN was a private mixtape collective that I ran with a group of 50 friends from 2004 until 2014. It was established as a music sharing game, brought on thanks to mp3 players and the introduction of ipods and lasted through the universal acceptance of itunes and digital streaming services.
I have a page here dedicated to the project but the wealth of mixtapes is greatly larger than my server’s drive space. I needed to find another solution. Mixtape is a good solution for this. All of the files can now be found in its home there. I’m happy to be able to share this beyond the original group. It was an important transitional time in how we enjoyed and enjoined with music.

E. Tage Larsen is an artist, designer and dog robber. You may encounter him as an art gallery director, branding designer or illustrator. His work has received awards from "Society of Illustrators", "American Illustration", 'Print' magazine annual as well as the LogoLounge and LogoLounge 'Master Series' annuals. Essays on design and fine art have appeared in numerous magazines and web sites.
Among his less savory qualities, he's a poor sport, a sore loser and ill fitted for honest labor. He makes bad friends and worse decisions. Animals avoid him and children despise him. He's been known to drink to excess, carry on with seditious talk and leer at women. He's a coward, a card cheat and a known liar.
Mrs. Call's second grade class said perhaps all that needed to be said about Larsen.In a moment of vindication and possibly clarity, Call would add to Larsen's permanent record that he was a bit of a dreamer and that Larsen was "an excellent student but his grades trailed off in the final semester."True, Larsen was filled with promise and saddled as starry-eyed but one can't help but notice that Call's inability to chisel this raffish diamond-in-rough wasn't also a clerical trick to distance herself from the responsibility of the 'Nurture' debate.She also said he was "prompt".She wasn't wrong.
