Disclaimer:
The audio recordings, found objects, and public rituals that appear in several projects below emerged from habits formed long ago.
They were not accumulated for any creative purpose and should not be mistaken for evidence of a pre-existing artistic practice.
The word archive is being applied retrospectively.
I only recently learned that a temperament named pathological in one language could be celebrated in another.
That revelation alone does not make it mine to speak.
I won’t claim a lineage that is not my own.
The work is not found in the existence or accumulation of these materials, but in what I make of them now.

This is taking longer than expected.

We apologize for the delay.

We are doing our best to connect you as quickly as possible while meeting the needs of each and every customer.

We never compromise quality for speed.

We appreciate your patience during this busy time.

Please stay on the line.
