After receiving grants from XARTS, the Taymor Fund, and Shansi (grants available through Oberlin College and Conservatory), my collaborator Will FK Tokunaga and I traveled to Tokyo, where we studied with the Amanojaku taiko ensemble. We composed a piece for 1 real Chuudaiko and 1 virtual Chuudaiko with live effects that I created using Max and controlled using Wii-remotes. Reach out if you'd like to see the patch! Below is a video of some of the performance.
I asked each member of Sourgum to send me a text message with the earliest memory they were comfortable sharing. I then set all those text messages into a song that we sang together! (Maxwell Addae, Neal Baker, Helen Hé, Piper Hill, Will FK Tokunaga, Kari Watson)

A collaboration with Zeb Page, bagpiper and professor of Geology, this duet for bagpipes and live electronics was written for the Kaliedosonic festival. Using the ambisonics plugin for Max, high resonant frequencies of the bagpipe piece were projected in varying orbits around Finney Chapel's 20-speaker array.
