Crickets @ Angel City Brewery

April 2013

Recently performed/installed my crickets piece at Angel City Brewery as part of an art opening: In Your Face – How Artists Transformed LA’s Urban Landscape.

And thank you Casey Anderson for documenting three seconds of this on Vine.

Crickets is a derivative of a larger work, When On The Shore, which premiered in April 2011.

Album to be released this summer

March 2013

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be releasing an album on khalija records this summer. The foundation of the audio material is generated by a dark energy synthesizer, and consists of odd arrangements of Bach chorales followed by long musical reflections incorporating voice and violin with the synthesizer. Album art will be created by graphic designer, Hayden Smith.

The students learned the Victorian-era technique in Leo F. Hobaica, Jr.’s design and color class in the fall of 2012, and designed and produced this work especially for CalArts’ annual holiday card.
