As I look to the coming year, I’m realizing I have many things in the works right now, and likely too much. There’s no danger in having an endless, constantly added to list of things to do and learn… but on occasion you are working within deadlines. In 2019 I have a hard deadline I’ve… Continue reading 2020 fade in

Lessons from CORM/future projects
Over this past summer I found myself very wrapped-up with the compositional process and tech behind CORM. Consequence of Recursive Memory was a piece I composed and presented with funding I received from the City of Seattle Office of Arts & Culture. I presented p_CORM (or what I dubbed an ‘iterative premix’ of the work)… Continue reading Lessons from CORM/future projects
configs / proxyspace tests
My time in the studio has been a bit inconsistent recently with visitors in town and work on the farm (no shit). And when I do get in the studio my focus can be a bit divided between many things, which is sometimes productive, sometimes infuriating, and hopefully usually at least informative. For a few… Continue reading configs / proxyspace tests

Its been nearly a decade since my last SDI album, and where my music tech skills have certainly advanced, my skills composing… Continue reading SDI experiments, sysex, CCRMA

It’s basically the same as a Roland JX-10 Super JX which has been been used on countless soundtracks including Twin Peaks. Lately, I’ve been obsessively trying to figure out how… Continue reading joys of control(s)
algocracker champions
https://theseanco.github.io/howto_co34pt_liveCode/ This link is by far the most useful resource I’ve found for learning SuperCollider. I’ve known about it for a couple years now, and despite knowing that I’m digging in. Neither algorave, live coding or beat driven music are my thing really, but I really dig how Sean Cotterill spells out in great detail… Continue reading algocracker champions
