Recommend. Be recommended. The mathematics of the Matrix pulls creators together like gravity. Creating global pathways, global ubiquity, global unity. In a small world, great things are possible.

Bio:
Some say that jazz has made legends. Others say that legends have made jazz. In Wayne Shorter's case, both sides are correct...
"Wayne Shorter is one of the greatest musicians and composers of our time. At age 80, we witness him at the height of his powers and performing with one of the most incredible bands he’s ever assembled."
-- Don Was, President, Blue Note Records
"Wayne Shorter unveiled the future of American music at New Orleans Jazz Fest"
-- New Orleans Times-Picayune, May 5, 2013
Wayne got started with Horace Silver back in the '50s. He moved on to Maynard Ferguson, then to Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers. He joined Miles in 1964.
In 1970 he formed Weather Report, together with Joe Zawinul and Miroslav Vitous.
Known as much for his composing as for his playing, many of Wayne's complex and sinuous melodies have become jazz standards.

I'm Sparrow. I built this matrix so that every creator on the planet would be conceivably findable and accessible from all others, beginning with musicians in Bahia, Brazil. The matrix combines recommendation by both artificial and human intelligence (human preferred) and the small-world phenomenon (responsible for the fact that most humans are within 6 steps of most others) in a simple but powerful manner which has never been used before.
