Demiurge Music

Demiurge is the tech oriented label of DJ and producer Don Tinsley a.k.a Monad. The word means literally a public worker, demioergós, demiourgós, and was originally used to designate any craftsman plying his craft or trade for the use of the public. Soon, however, technítes and other words began to be used to designate the common artisan while demiurge was set aside for the Great Artificer or Fabricator, the Architect of the universe. At first the words toû kósmou were added to distinguish the great Workman from others, but gradually demiourgós became the technical term for the Maker of heaven and earth. In this sense it is used frequently by Plato in his “Timæus”. Although often loosely employed by the Fathers and others to indicate the Creator, the word never strictly meant “one who produces out of nothing” (for this the Greeks used ktístes), but only “one who fashions, shapes, and models”.
