composer
I am a composer of acoustic and electroacoustic music whose work is fundamentally compelled by the philosophy that an artist is first and foremost an observer: I believe that every element in perceptible reality--be it the acoustic properties of a species of tree or the childhood memories of an audience member--are phenomena that tangibly influence the identity of my music. My composition therefore takes a holistic approach, in which spectral theory, physics, psychoacoustics, and historical and political context are thoughtfully intertwined.
