i am a sound designer and re-recording mixer for motion pictures by profession, but the focus of this website is my work as a visual, performing and recording artist, specifically:

1. •composing and recording pieces of ‘organized sound’, a kind of experimental organic electroacoustic ambient music concréte
   

1. •my work as a session musician, recording engineer and producer in the san francisco bay area music community
   

1. •my mid-80’s super-underground pop band, eyeland, and it’s earlier incarnation, riis spargo
   

1. •designing sound installations; compositions and constructions for galleries and abandoned spaces where the visitors move themselves through the piece of music
   

1. •a little something from my years working for rex probe and sound transform systems, building the legendary serge modular analog synthesizer
   

1. •examples of some of my visual art: monoprints, ink drawings, pinhole and polaroid photos, watercolors and collage
   

1. •a few of my short experimental films
   

1. •the spooky ‘language art’ and spoken word i create with my friends mark neville and ron crotty, and more recently with steve romanko
   

1. •and a bit of ramble about my tastes in books, music, film, art and culture; all the typical ‘personal website’ stuff, really - except flash animation - i don’t do flash animation
   

as with much of the world wide web, this project is under continuing development, and has been published to the server as a “work-in-progress” - some pages will have incomplete content - i’m sure you understand.

perhaps you’ll find something interesting scattered throughout.  thank you for visiting, and enjoy your time on the internet.
