Josh Nelson's series of interactive multi-media projects over the last several years have focused on space (2015's InchExploring MarsInch) and science fiction ephemera (2011's InchDiscoveriesInch). The latest manifestation of InchThe Discovery ProjectInch comes back to earth with InchThe Sky Remains,Inch Josh's love letter to Los Angeles, where he was born and raised. Avoiding the many cliches surrounding it's culture, Josh presents stories that reveal a fascinating history, from forgotten architecture and landmarks that shaped daily living, to the abundant wealth of creative and inspired individuals who have flocked to and defined life in LA over the last century. With vocalists Kathleen Grace & Lillian Sengpiehl and a stellar ensemble featuring guitarist Anthony Wilson, Josh's thoughtful musical framing of it's ongoing story adds another chapter to Los Angeles' cultural anthology.
