Sound artist, media artist and composer for both humans and computers. So much banjo, too
I mailed my postcards for this year’s plotter postcard exchange. The design this year is “63 of 255 possible broken 8 rung ladders (in order) + 1 complete 8 rung ladder.” I plotted the cards using an Axidraw SE/A3 with a Staedtler pigment liner for the black lines and a Sakura Pigma PN for the red.
Karen Brummund and I have an exhibition at the Dinah Washington Cultural Arts Center during the month of May. The show has grown out of work we’ve been making with fourth grade students at Faucett-Vestavia Elementary School. The students have created drawings that explore ways to depict invisible things such as sounds and feelings.
I built custom drawing boards to record the sounds of the students’ drawing, and I incorporated the sounds in an 18-minute audio piece, Taking a River for a Walk. The work accompanies Brummund’s video piece, Meander; a collaborative mural on the window; and selections from the students’ drawings.
