Music
What started as an exercise in epileptic exposure therapy turned itself into a stream-of-consciousness reflection of grief and an examination of how we interact with spaces both real and virtual.
Music
A short, low-key and very lo-fi video using a camcorder to rephotograph a rendering of a Max/MSP/Jitter patch of of a laptop screen. If the original patch was an experiment in using visual feedback to create semi-deterministic patterns, this rephotographed version is an exploration of the camcorder's auto-focus, how it reacts to flashing lights, how it captures the surface of the screen.

Max/MSP/Jitter feedback experiment. Rendered asynchronously over about 20 minutes in November of 2021. Each frame is generated from the prior frame as input, with a few parameters tweaked randomly. Later re-photographed with a camcorder as a separate piece (1/22: Light Tests).
Music
Multiple clips of video feedback (a MiniDV camcorder pointed at a screen being fed by the camera's output through a broken component cable), thrown into a Max/MSP/Jitter blender. One shorter clip loops alongside a longer clip (played in full), and they're mashed together in odd ways that create appealing patterns. The soundtrack is a simple sine-wave frequency modulation patch in Max/MSP, amplitudes and cross-modulation are being controlled by the image itself.

Music
A audiovisual attempt at something like Roland Kayn's notion of "cybernetic music," in which the dynamics of the piece are generated on their own by the intermingling of feedback loops and the whole thing largely plays itself. The audio is a handful of sine waves being frequency modulated by other sine waves, the frequencies of which are being controlled by the values of various parameters in the feedback path, which change at random.

Music
A short, wordless horror film about the terrors lurking just beyond the veil of reality. Shot almost entirely on Super 8 and taking an experimental narrative approach to cosmic horror, Sungazer is an ultra-grainy, high contrast nightmare beamed from another dimension.

Late at night, a man washes his hands. Things go downhill from there.
