Hypnagogia is the transitional state between wakefulness and sleep. During this state, it's common to experience a wide variety of sensory experiences, from barely perceptible to vivid hallucinations - visual and/or aural.

People may imagine hearing their name called, crumpling bags, or white noise amongst many other things. More rarely, poetry or music is heard. Some intentionally try to induce hypnagogia to stimulate creativity.

Documenting the process of travelling into the dream state, this mixtape follows you through the gate of the subconscious - an odd space where reality and the absence of it co-exist.

This mixtape was created for NTS supporter radio 'Dreams' series.

This mixtape reflects on transformation without limitation. It is set to examine the moment when someone leaves their home and sinks into the deep unknown, undergoing unexpected change through echoes of uncertainty, as well as facing other turbulences.

Spanish music speaks when there are no more words to say. This mixtape guides those with heavy hearts through the stages of a breakup: grief, denial, anger, sorrow, tears, and sweat. Best experienced with a fan whirring directly on your face.

This mixtape was submitted for NTS supporter radio's 'Heatwave' series.

Some sounds are easily recognizable as our saviors in the summer heat. Here is a collection of some of them, captured amidst Bucharest's hottest days back in July 2024.

This piece was created during the "RECORDING TO BORDER(S) / BORDERS OF RECORDING(S)" sound art workshop organized by Semi Silent for their 5th Sonic Future Residencies program.
