Disasterpeace - Flow (FEZ Soundtrack)

This is a project I developed in January, in which the acoustic properties of Fairchild Chapel in Oberlin, Ohio, software I built in Max, and the pipe organ are unified into one instrument, in which unsustainable acoustic feedback is essential to the combination of the three. The software I wrote is creating bell sounds, synths, and processing the organ signal and feedbacking it through the space. I hope you enjoy!

Listen to Sarah Davachi! She is a huge influence of mine . . . <3

The needle drop shatters the illusion that we are merely listening to a recording. The turntable and the record have existed as tools of performance and composition since their inception in the late 19th century. Early on, its limitations and affordances influenced how composers wrote and musicians performed. Practicioners of Gramaphonmusik and musique concrete utilized the record as compositional material before moving to the sound collagists preferred medium, tape. DJs from myriad parallel and intersecting musical trajectories spun new sounds and music-making practices out of their turntables. And the practice of frictional sound reproduction continues within a seemingly frictionless, streaming-based listening culture. We play the record; the record plays itself. An hour of non-exhaustive approaches to composing and performing on/with/for records and turntables, including my own! Music by Maria Chavez, Mariam Rezaei, Edward Elgar, The Caretaker, Philip Jeck, Herbie Hancock, Grandmaster Flash, and more.

On Ice

just a home cooked harmonizer sad little sailor ditty

A lake becomes the sea
When you’re sitting silently
Horizon far as you sit close to me

I told you you could stay
Remember yesterday
The way you looked and the way you turned to leave

And if anybody knows
How to make that lighthouse glow
Tell me what’s the way to sail a broken boat

And if anybody sees
The rain clouds on the breeze
Pray for me, that I may stay afloat

You never said goodbye
A sentimental lie
A memory to tease me as I roam

And lately when I wake
I tremble and I shake
The storm reminds me I am far from home

And if anybody knows
Why the lonely lighthouse glows
She knows that no one knows when I’ll return

And if anybody sees
The rain clouds on the breeze
Then listen close and from my story learn

Then set me off, and set my home to burn

Shanty For The Drowned

phantomic embodiment is a fixed media etude made from the live processing of
an improvisation session with friends in September 2024. To create this piece, I
used a live-processing patch in Max/MSP that I’ve been refining for several
years. In this improvisation, the patch served both as an instrument and as a
means of documentation.
