Community interaction will consist of a comprehensive tour of the city, a welcoming party with local artists and musicians, and public performance when available. Living in downtown Detroit for over 20 years, ADULT. hopes this project will provide a rich experience for each musician and bring favourable attention to Detroit and its cultural heritage.<\/p>\n<p>ADULT. plans to share via their social media outlets the collaborative process through a behind-the-scenes view of the creative process. Once complete with the collaborations, ADULT. plans to release the results as their sixth album &#8216;Detroit House Guests&#8217;\u00a0on Ghostly International in late 2015 or early 2016.<\/p>\n<p>The musicians working with ADULT. on this project include:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Dorit Chrysler (NY Theremin Society)<br \/>\n\u2022 Shannon Funchess (LIGHT ASYLUM)<br \/>\n\u2022 Michael Gira (SWANS, Angels of Light, Young God Records)<br \/>\n\u2022 Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe (Lichens)<br \/>\n\u2022 Douglas J.
