I am interested in sound for its tactile, textural and somatic qualities, and as modes for interrelatedness and interplay that can explore dynamics between our social, psychological and material entanglements within different environments.
I like smudged liminal spaces, auditory/ sensory hallucinations, transmogrify and the destabalising effects of improvising.
