Constant - Sonic Tag

Dowr~ (Cornish for 'water') is a piece of drone music produced using field recordings of different bodies and forms of water. Created for my MMus Sonic Arts @ Goldsmiths submission.

Concrete Glitch ties together elements of the electronic world with elements of the natural world.

Concrete Glitch

I recorded the same tree every morning during a recent trip to Cornwall using a Soma Ether and made a thing with the radio signals and sounds picked up!

Beale's Tree

An experimental drone piece exploring reverberation in Cornish fogou's, holy wells, tunnels, and the incredible Carnglaze Caverns. 

Initially recordings were made using a LOM Geofón.

'SUDRONEN' in a room

Waterbody

For the Cities and Memory London Soundmap, Westminster - this piece explores the concept of ‘future’, venturing ‘into’ as well as ‘back’, taken from a point of discussion between an adult and children in the original recording. The piece draws inspiration from the recording location, Westminster. ‘Future’ imagines a dystopian fate for our politics, with fragmented speech becoming drowned out by the crescendo of aggressive drones, to an ominous and unknowing conclusion.
