bio image

I make sound installations resulting from experiments with hand-made electronics, and with obsolete and domestic technology that I modify and reverse engineer. I’m inspired by pre-space age radio-craft and communication technology. I draw on the formulas and aesthetics found in out of date D.I.Y. electronics magazines. My interest in working with electrically generated sound lies in its ability to act as an audible indicator of processes, information and natural occurrences that we cannot see or that would otherwise go unheard. By handcrafting and cross-wiring electronic devices, they can be stripped from their commercial obligations and exposed to the noisy and invisible ethereal realm. My work involves things like hand wound coils, scavenged components and converted consumer electronics.
