Statement

Composed in 2007. If "composed" is the word. I improvise a track, usually piano first. Then later I play it back and improvise another track on top of that. And so on, until it seems done. Then I edit out the least compelling moments. Usually by that point the piece has become whatever it's capable of being.

I consider what I do to be a sort of old-fashioned musical collage, using new-fangled technology.

Reviews

My music has alleviated math anxiety in a friend's teenage daughter. My cats come into the living room when I am playing, rather than running away. Make of that what you will.
