More than colors and forms, it is sounds and their arrangements that fashion society… in noise can be read the codes of life, the relations among men: clamor, melody, dissonance, harmony - Attali

I am a composer investigating nuances of social, psychological, political and emotional environments as they manifest in arrangements of sound. I often use my own body and voice as a starting point for this exploration. My compositions push the boundaries of language and association and challenge hierarchies that define music as one thing and noise as an other. My compositions are experimental, sometimes improvisational, and often initially realized as a set of drawings or instructions that then take the form of a performance, installation or video.
