heightened senses

An excerpt from Lunge, my collaboration with Ken Moore, serves as the soundtrack for this fine video from Canvas + Huck. The featured artist is object-maker Anousha Payne.

international collaboration in one’s own house

It was my great pleasure to have Cristiano Bocci over for an exhilarating afternoon of music this past Saturday. Cris was in the US to work with a mathematician colleague at Auburn, and decided to stop by the Washington DC area on his way back to Italy. I’m delighted that he did. (And it was by an auspicious coincidence that his plane touched down at Dulles Airport the day Avant Music News named our forthcoming Non-places as a pick of the week.)

first (pre-release) review of non-places

Great thanks to Mike Borella of Avant Music News for a nice, pre-release review of Non-Places. It’ll be out on 30 September, so stay tuned…

last gasp/fast grasp

I’m happy to be included on three tracks of Gary Rouzer‘s new Bandcamp collection of recent solo and small ensemble work. It’s a nice snapshot of some of the ideas Gary’s been exploring these past few years, and includes fine performances from both local and international artists.
