VOICINGS FROM THE UNDERGROUND:
INDEX
The following index of works belongs to the Art Book of the same name.
Widow’s walk
This voicing incorporates the sound of a vintage organ
and jazz brushes on a drum kit.
The cadence approaches, passes and then heads away.
This is a song about movement.
Juno
This piece is titled after it's sound-score. Juno' is a collaboration by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross,
a digital single released on June 30, 2016 in commemoration of NASA's Juno Mission,
which arrived in Jupiter's orbit on July 4, 2016.
OPENING THE GATE
A sound collage mixed using Ableton Live, this piece is composed of two interviews conducted in the autumn of 2015; one with vocalist, actress and vocal facilitator Ethie Friend and the second with musician, professor and shamanic practitioner Julie Davis.
LIMINAL
What strange landscapes! My own voice becomes a beacon as I settle into the drone of the cello. I call out and then listen. I hear things I am ordinarily too busy to hear.
SUSPENDED
This minimalist,
digitally-rendered soundscape is
a composite of samples and midi instrumentation. It represents my first forays into the OtherWorldly sounds generated by a fully digitized process.
METRONOME
Each droplet clings, trembles and then pulled by its own ripened weight, falls into space, regular as a metronome.
CENTAUR
...There are undoubtedly few myths which teach so clearly the battle between instinct and reason...
MAGDELENA

RED FOX
Red Fox describes the reclamation and recovery of the non-ordinary soul.
SOUL RETRIEVAL
This is a simple, repetitive drone...
LINEN CHEST
Upon this linen chest,
grey man standing
on the near shore laughing,
there is not a sound.
