Sound artist, media artist and composer for both humans and computers. So much banjo, too
I’m so pleased to have Craig Hultgren visit Tuscaloosa during his southern tour. He’ll be working with Moises Molina‘s cello students, meeting with New College students, and performing a concert that includes my piece Snakeskin (verso) for e-cello and electronics.

The collaborative Tracing Thin Air project I’ve been making with Karen Brummund and Allison Grant culminates in a one-night only video and sound installation on Friday.

For this part of the project I’ve created a sound installation driven by air quality data that we collected over the last 9 months using Purple Air sensors. I sonify the data using a variety of sound generating and audio processing devices built with Cycling ’74’s Max.
It’s been fun digging into Max’s multichannel mc. system, especially in combination with the gen~ suite of objects. Graham Wakefield & Gregory Taylor’s excellent book Generating Sound & Organizing Time has been a particularly timely (hah!) and useful resource. Highly recommended.
I had a great time working with poet John Barger on this music to accompany his poem and family footage. John already has another book out, but don’t miss his Resurrection Fail that contains this poem.
I’m particularly fond of “At the Barnes Museum on a Cold Fall Afternoon” as a testament to the twinning and twining of art/poetry/life that happens so often in museums.
My text score From the Middle of a Clearing is featured as Day 41 of 365 in the A Year of Deep Listening project presented by the Center for Deep Listening.
Pleased to have Adam Goodwin and Thomas Helton, two improvising bassists, at East Village Arts in Birmingham. I’ll perform a short improvised electronics set on the concert.
