If a live noise set with electric guitar, no input mixer, and samples is more your thing, I have a live recording from a show I performed last month in Syracuse:

It's name your own price.

I love going to the bookstore and buying books based on their cover. Sometimes they are duds, sometimes they are beautiful, unexpected reads.

I like the breadcrumb approach that I picked up from Beethoven... "Why was that there?" *10 minutes later* "OH!"

Or I just want to rip off Rothko Chapel.

The final piece is for cello, piano, percussion, and multimedia. It is engaging with recent moves towards censorship in the arts, and contextualizing it with similar moments from the 20th and 21st centuries.

To quote Taylor... "they're burning all the witches, even if you aren't one".

This is a clip of me working on my new, as yet untitled, piece for @institut.abeceda's Bled Contemporary Music Week. I've had a version of this gesture marinating in my head for months and I'm finally able to work on it.
