## History

### Pre-Release

Finite Form was first revealed by Jack Stauber on March 9th, 2013 on various social media platforms, nine days before its official release. He would reveal the cover art, its release date on March 18th, as well as revealing it to be a free album at the time. Four days later on March 13th, Jack released what would be the third song on the album, Runaway, as a free single on SoundCloud as a sneak peek for the upcoming album. The single has since been converted to an album upload and is no longer free. The previous single cover art for Runaway would a blurry photo of two people standing near each other with the text RUNAWAY over it with \*FREE DOWNLOAD\* underneath it. Finally, on the day before the release, Jack would reveal the backside of the album cover, revealing the tracklist and all the songs that would be featured on the album.

### Release & Post-Release

Finite Form would officially release to the public on March 18th, 2013, though Jack would barely make any major announcements for the album, not even any video or trailer for it. The only real announcement would be a post on his Instagram, being an art of a photo of a baby, with its face replaced with a photo of an older woman's face, with captions revealing the released album and links to it. Two years after the album's release and not speaking of the album since on September 12th, 2015, Jack would perform The Diverge at Basement Transmissions for the Viator release show for the song's folk and acoustic sound. Another two years later on March 13th, 2017, Jack would upload the full album onto YouTube, along with the full Viator album. Jack Stauber has not mentioned or spoken about Finite Form since then.
