On this site you will find chronicled the life and adventures of Scientists Jack and Kaitlyn Shaw (later known as "Venus"). Their lives take place in interesting times. In the eighth decade of Earth's twenty-first century A.D., society is sharply divided into Scientific and Non-tech communities. Then, along come some new variables that will challenge and change everything.

The serial is posted in bi-weekly installments.

On this site you will also find updates on all the terrestrial activities of Venus Vain, the band. We'll inform you of live dates and keep you posted on the development of the long-term, three-album musical project paralleling the Venus Vain story, plus give visitors and members of our online community access to lots of extras including musical tracks you won't find elsewhere, plus limited edition T-shirts,badges, posters and more.

The Venus Vain project involves two separate but inter-related aspects. It's an epic science fiction saga in three parts ... and an alternate narrative original music project performed by the epoch-spanning modern rock band named after the future historical character Venus Vain.

The music is eclectic: "para-Celtic jazz rock with Latin undertones and flashes of metal...except when it's something entirely different." The live presentation is also a mixture of elements and influences. In their 90-120 minute performances of all or nearly all original music, the band incorporates a variety of sounds and visuals to transport the audience well beyond the four walls and the immediate moment. Someone with a dangerous wit once accused the band of "other-worldly showmanship." We're not entirely sure what that means, but we don't think you'll be bored.

Check back with us regularly for updates and special offers. We appreciate your interest, support and help in kicking each phase of this journey off with a huge, cosmic blast...
