Nights

A track from the forthcoming CD "station" — a collection of noise, dark ambient, and experimental works evoking the anxiety of uncertain times. Part memory, part post-apocalyptic fantasy, this set of ten pieces extends a growing catalog of introspective, meditative, and reflective sound art.

This track blends my soundart world with the world of my quiet music (chamber music with electronics).

09  his last song was a sad one

During my recent visit to London I had the wonderful opportunity to participate in a soundbath created by Emma at Nada Healing at the Berntson Bhattacharjee Gallery.  Thee paintings by William Farr caught my eye as a kind of kindred spirit.
This short work is a kind of rehearing of Emma's beautiful Zephir chimes.

"Now that everything is easy, there is so much to do." — Morton Feldman

Making art is not just self-expression for me — it’s self-discovery. Each work holds a trace of my heart and mind, poured out with more or less success, like every artist I’ve taught or known.

Decades of teaching art and music have shown me the raw dreams of thousands of emerging artists — always vulnerable, always anxious. I recognize that same anxiety in myself now, as I turn again to my own truth.

My work is a way to sit with that unease. To meditate. To reflect. To empty my mind and listen. I don’t find answers there — only myself.
