This piece was one of the first pieces of music I had written using Logic Pro.  This is a very old piece, and I am hesitant as to uploading this for you to listen.  Yet I think this was one of the major building blocks in my development in understanding music structure, and it would be a shame to not preserve this.  When writing this, I wanted to write something that suited one of my favorite modern video games, Assassins Creed.  In the end, I think it would have been better suited for a video game commercial than concrete soundtrack material.  Yet I was happy, the little kid I was with what I created.  
There are three sections, each varying entirely from each other.  I do apologize for the terrible EQ'ing and audio leveling, I was just a kid. 

Note: I am a better composer now :)


Percussion Project No.2

This is one of my first pieces I've written in my first year at Peabody.  The piece describes the phase of winter going into spring, using a poem I've written last year, put together in a music concrete form.  I also used Max MSP, Logic, and Audacity for this project.  This piece is an example performance. 

Timeless Frame

Sitting on the beach as the sun sets, knowing at any second you will appear somewhere, somewhere different, with a new purpose, can be described as a dream.  This is my first improvisation I have recorded so far at Peabody.  This piece has no structure, and is totally made up on the spot, like a dream, not knowing where you will go next.  

Wordless Dreams

Based on my first improv, this new improvisation used Max/MSP, though it never was completed on time for the performance, so delays and granular altering was most prominent (though it is hard to hear the effects in this recording).
