My compositional method

My practice is one person performer, composer and visual artist, integrating acoustic sound, live audio manipulation, installation and acousmatic sound, all composed for reception via multiple loudspeakers, live video mixing, fixed/live video/visuals/artwork during performance. 

The different sensory worlds created in my work are intended to encourage the listener to think about how music and visuals complement each other and gain new strength from their combination.
