Ephemeral Aperture
Ephemeral Aperture Poetry & Verse, Micro & Multi-Media, as well as Craft & Trade Artisans share their passion in smaller and alternative format media.
Spark Something Ephemeral
The Ephemeral Aperture branch of the CPF Studio focuses on the alternative form content and multimedia productions, including the emotions that are captured in art through stories both spoken and untold.
As an organization built around the idea of “Producing Awe” we understand that there are many forms of creating and sharing that light. We endeavor to build foundations of support to aid those smaller stories and voices in our community.
As such, this aspect of our CPF Studio frames smaller ideas as the greater moments that they are, for each of these individual truths come together to create a holistic view of the real truth we all share - also known as our Hearth Mentality!
The Monomyth as a Lens
This imprint’s sigil is built to model the path of the Heroes’ Journey, also known as “the Monomyth”; because capturing the emotion of a whole journey can be hard in one picture - the lens is the whole journey with this.

“I think that art has the ability to capture people’s imaginations and make them think that more is possible.”
Capturing a Moment
How does one define art?
That seems an impossible question to answer… almost like the meaning of life, or what is love (baby don’t hurt me).
We define art as that act of creation that binds passion and promise - that calling from an ephemeral place that connects us in those moments of emotion - a muse as the universe.
Art shapes reality for us as a part of that suffering artists feel.
To do art and be an artist is to view this shared reality in a different way, and to share that perspective as AWE, Agency, Wonder, and Expression.
Stories below are those we actively stride in publishing and producing. As we gain more volunteer support, funding, and a healthy dose of time, we can grow to support many other artists!
Active Projects
Let’s Play Remedyverse!
We are still in the process of recording and cutting our first Episodes of this, and hope to make approximately 20; starting with Control, then continuing with Control: Resonant.
Remedy is a big inspiration for how we hope to tell some of our own stories, and their games are recently being noticed for the gems that they are, so we hope to help carry the torch in our own ways.
Find us on YouTube for this project!
Take Control of your Reality. Pan, The Reveler - A Dyadic Series
Our mascot, Pan, the Reveler, is also one to take on adventure, and we are so excited to share a pair of new series, soon. With one shared Pilot Episode; we split a story in two, past and future, and discover both sides of a heroes’ journey form.
This series revolves around Pan, but also the adventurers that build the story - a narrative played with friends.
Pan, the Reveler!Story One. "Thresholds of the Multiverse"
A campaign we play through the medium of tabletop gaming (D&D5e); then do readings of stylized recaps as short stories. Pan is our Guildmaster in the story.
Story Two. "Pan's Add. Ventures."
As in 'additional ventures' - a series that is predicated on flashbacks of past adventures and stories that Pan has undertaken!
“Thresholds/Doors” Campaign
A Dungeons and Dragons campaign we are playing and recording to turn into a Podcast as our main part of the Adventures of Pan series, the Patron of our adventure in the multi-versal City of Doors.
Led and Dm’d by the Guild Caretaker, Nicholas, friends and volunteers Rachel and Jarod all share a table and adventure with Kat, as well.
All involved in the game are Board Members and founding members of the Guild.
“Add. Ventures” - Your Tales of Yore!
Story narrations that follow Pan, our Mascot, in a flashback of times before the tale we share in the “Thresholds/Doors” Campaign.
Each helps to make Pan’s adventure, and our own, more robust!
Projects on Hold
Public Domain Book Readings
We are happy to share readings of Public Domain Books as a fun, free thing to do for our community! Recorded by Guild-Mates and other volunteers that seek to work with us in time, we share another way to explore a tale!
The Odyssey - An Original Aperture of the Hero
Readings recorded by a yet to be discovered voice actor, Guild-Mate Zac spins the many poetic verses of story read together into a blind movie, as the Audio Engineer of the adventure!
We evoke the narrative of Homer in a reading that imparts a performance meant to strike the spark of change within!
(Our first Ep’s are on hold - inquiries or interest, please email connection@pantheonarts.org)
