Introduction: Minor Triad Defined

A chord consisting of three notes which can be arranged to form two superimposed 3rds; if the lower 3rd is minor and the upper 3rd is major, the triad is minor. - The New Grove Dictionary of Music


This definition seems to encompass at least partially the composition and harmonic characteristics of our group. It is mulitifaceted, dynamic, and yet still a unit, a chord, and something lovely.

Thesis Statement: An Ode Unto Ourselves

The Minor Triad will henceforth exist as a reliquary of ideas, expressions, contradictions, and hopefully enlightenment.

It shall exist ceaselessly until any of its contributors deem it defunct, useless, or ill-informed --for what is a triad without each note's contribution-- or until some force of nature would happen to remove it from the universe.

It shall make no restriction on its content, so long as said content is approved by even one of it contributors.

FOREMOST AND PARAMOUNT: This shared space will serve as an existential plane wherein the reconnection and resolidification of three individuals removed from one another by space and circumstance might begin anew and flourish.



Note: this will probably be the most formal, pretentious, and abstract thing ever posted... but who knows...
