audio collage & production

Building on my radio and dj practice, I make audio essays and sound collages that take field recordings, historical audio and music to craft atmospheric sonic narratives, often as accompaniment to other performance or installation art. In the future, I hope to produce my own music to use as backing for live sound art performance, and am (slowly) learning how to use ableton now for that purpose. Below are a few of the sound collages I've made, including some that I've released as part of my radio show. Enjoy!
