PHANTOM NOISE
Phantom Noise is a multimedia installation work made for the MFA Thesis Exhibition at the Pacific Northwest College of Art in Visual Studies. The work is thematic dealing with popular music technologies such as vinyl records and cassette tape, psycho-acoustics, choral music and notions of the phantom in popular media culture.

Echoface
Echo Face was a site specific installation that took place at Tractor Gallery in Portland, OR. The work featured a series of cassette recorders playing different harmonic notes sung directly into the recorders, each one on homemade tape loops. The reel to reel tape was stretched over a nail on the ceiling and played the overall sound of the room in the installation, on a third of normal playback speed.

Caldera Residency, 2010
Caldera works in cooperation with PNCA to select five MFA students from PNCA to temporary live with two visiting artists at Caldera outside of Sisters, OR. I was invited and stayed with Elizabeth Malaska, Daniel Glendening, Micheal Welsh, Ray Barrett and visiting artists Guillermo Brown and Mary Weatherford.
During my stay I helped shoot video and began to create what would eventually be the score to Micheal and Daniel's video To Destroy the Sun.
Watch the final video here:
I also spent quite a lot of time working on some music for an ep called Skeletonz. This song in particular was recorded in discussion with Guillermo:
