about

Our world is defined by its inherent flaws. In art we often attempt to look past mistakes or strive to create with as few of them as possible, or at least that has been my norm. And yet 2020 has proven that life on Earth has its defects. There are systemic biases in how we treat each other. A “pneumonia of unknown etiology” can bring the world to its knees. A historical change is invariably a glitch from the previous norm.
Each track on this album was created in quarantine. In staring into audio blemishes, I attempted to make the overloading, the processing anomalies, or the compression artifact as the main idea. Each bug of a piece is expanded to a landscape. Hopefully the defects can be seen as beauty.
