https://hexpressionist.bandcamp.com HEXPRESSIONIST is my latest project. The music I release under this moniker is inspired by micromontage techniques. It is almost very much inspired by the abstract expressionist movement. These recordings were made quickly with little thought. This is the music of raw expression. I spent months collecting and processing samples then I performed theContinue reading “Improvised Electronic Music”

Harmonium and Guitar
I’ve been experimenting with a new recording technique. Basically I’m trying to make the most of my gear. I’m sure I could eliminate giant chunks of time by using a better process, but this seems to be working at the moment. I mic my harmonium using my brother’s bass drum mic. The mic is pluggedContinue reading “Harmonium and Guitar”
postfailure
The time between lines is intentional. Death by tornado or by the bullet of a racist. Equally tragic. Both violent conditions of the earth. I see no difference between man and moon. Properties of particles poeticized. I have yet to meet a moment uncoated in absurdity. Time-specific line. Words beyond myself. Perhaps denial of theContinue reading “postfailure”
need
Perhaps I wouldn’t write if my mouth lubricated itself during times I need it the most. Like when I stopped her at the door. Onlookers impatiently observing the distance between us and the door. Me trying to fit words into the most loaded minute. The minute between her and the door. The struggle of fittingContinue reading “need”
The Chance There Is No Chance
I think the reason I’m so attracted to indeterministic processes is because I actually don’t believe in chance and instead what I think happens is I’m opening the door for something that’s trying really hard to not be found. It’s that same strange thing that talks to you when you take over an eighth ofContinue reading “The Chance There Is No Chance”

Objectivism
I’m no longer concerned with illusions of good and bad or the shackles of right and wrong. Instead I’ll ask myself: Is it probable? If so, I’ll harness a process to dilute probability. These processes may include procedural or generative techniques. Essentially I’ll do what ever it takes to summon ghosts. I can’t rely solelyContinue reading “Objectivism “
residue
Concretist in duck’s shoes A web of feet. Not webbed feet. Curled toes, talons, triumphs Curled around the memory It was often cold where Coldness was banned By the residue of a tribe Residual harm from a thought Residual as a skunk
Barebones
The sound of wrists on the verge of carpal tunnel syndrome There are tunnels for wishes. They say. I held my breath with her on my mind I held my breath with music on my mind The transposition of pain into chords enveloping an attitude I was stuck with Restructuring its basis as I succumbContinue reading “Barebones”
Procedural Concert #1
I’m thinking about using kickstarter to create procedural concert. I want to hire about 10 cellists and have them improvise using a given scale. Each cellist will have their own giant box (shaped like intonarumori) to perform inside of. I want them hidden from view. The idea is to create more of an installation than a concert. Continue reading “Procedural Concert #1”
