F.A.Q.
Q: What does the name "V.O.N." stand for?A: Well, it stands for various odd names.
Q: Why does the V.O.N. logo have a snake on it?A: The image comes from the American Revolutionary War era "Gadsden flag," designed by American general and statesman Christopher Gadsden. The snake was a mascot of the American Revolutionaries, proposed by Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere, and its coiled demeanor represents their readiness to decisively oppose tyranny.
Q: How often will your albums come out?A: I'm going to be aiming for a yearly basis.
Q: Will all your albums start with the letters V, O, N?A: Maybe.
Q: Do you do any live shows?A: Not at the moment.
Q: Will you custom-compose me a track?A: If you've got a good idea for one, and if I've got the spare time, then perhaps.
Q: It sounds like there are spectral frequency images in some of your songs. Are there?A: Yes.
Q: Why don't you copyright anything?A: Because the notion of "intellectual property" is ludicrous, unenforceable, and necessarily infringes upon real property. For a more thorough explanation, please read Stephan Kinsella's Against Intellectual Property and Michele Boldrin & David Levine's Against Intellectual Monopoly.
