In Feb/Mar I travelled to Latvia to work on a funded art residency in collaboration with another artist. Using lo-fi cameras the project was documented as we developed the new media work on the local area and surrounding nature. (Duration 4:35)
Deep focus as I develop a system working with visuals in TouchDesigner as a counterpoint to my environmental audio methodology.
Are you ready Riga? Tomorrow evening, Fri 27th Feb, we play the Kaņepes Kultūras centrs (KCC) at 8pm.
The work is an audio-visual live performance using geo-specific datasets and field recordings relating to the sub-conscious of modernity through symbols in nature.
Arrived at the Sansusi art residency centre in Latvia where it is a veritable winter wonderland.
Bath Spa University; yesterday, where I gave a talk and got to hang out with this legend - grammy award-winning audio engineer & mixer Andrew Sheps, who gave a workshop.

The glamour…
B&W negatives developed, taken over the last 4 months during my French and Portuguese residencies.

A man never crosses the same river twice…
The trickle of water that has already passed tickles my ears as I process field recordings through outboard gear, with time to bear…

Back to work after my residency in France. Lots to unpack (metaphorically).

Going through highlighted performances from my France residency as it nears its conclusion. It’s taking time to go through but happy to have so much material to complete.

Playback session to figure out a path moving forward for my ecomusicology work, as I hit the midway point in my 3-month residency in France.

Minor reshuffle. Been at the art residency here in France for a month now. Work is productive as I learn and develop my process based upon the concept of simulacra.

My Traveler’s Company Notebook has arrived!
Today has been an important day at the residency - After nearly 8 years of searching I’ve found a process to create compositional performances using field recordings as the primary audio, developing them in real-time in evolving environments. So happy!
And yet you still don’t offer the option to turn off the save function to offer some protection of artist’s work…

Studio setup in the house provided to me by the organisations who have awarded me this art residency.
At the art residency here in France, I am looking at ways to perform with field recordings in real time.

As part of my french art residency I have been asked to keep a journal. Today is a day of catch up recording my thoughts and what i’ve done so far over the last 13 days.
My IPod’s replacement headphone jack came yesterday from China after a month without. Such a joy to become reacquainted!
