Afterimage

This film explores disjunctions between our visual and aural apprehension of our environment. What does it mean to be in a place? How can we encounter nature through a lens?

Caged Birds (Augmentation)

Composed for 100x John: A Global Salute to John Cage in Sound and Image, premiering at the White Box Gallery, New York City in 2011. This piece has since been played in Ireland, UK, and Portugal.

"Caged Birds" as Field Recoding

Artist talk given at Invisible Places - Sounding Cities, the symposium of the World Forum of Acoustic Ecology, in Viseu, Portugal.

I explain some of the ideas behind the composition “Caged Birds (Augmentation)”, a field recording of a dawn chorus in the para-urban environs in which I live. The subtle electroacoustic processing evident in this piece parallels transformations in birdsong that urban development has engendered.
