Canvas is an interactive installation that fosters community collaboration in the creation of a singular, evolving artwork. Over the course several days, participants engage in a communal painting process, with each individual contribution adding to the evolving visual piece. Concurrently, the live video feed of the painting is sonified through a MaxMSP patch, generating a complex and dynamic sonic landscape that is inextricably linked to the visual art. Through this immersive sensory experience, Canvas offers a unique opportunity to explore the intersection art, technology, and community engagement. For this version of the installation, the Peabody Institute's graduating class of 2023 was invited to contribute to the piece over the course of one week.

Sine Post is a site-specific installation that engages with the fundamental nature of sound to create an immersive sensory experience. The environment is composed of a sequence of closely related, slowly-changing sine waves, dynamically modulating in relation to each other to form an ever-evolving sonic tapestry. As you walk through the space, the subtly shifting relationships between each tone interact with the architecture and acoustics of the environment to produce a unique auditory experience. As you walk the path, pay close attention to the dynamic relationships between the many tones.

Pay special attention to how a purely visual phenomenon tranforms into a sonic experience. Look at the lights, how they create shapes and patterns, visually and sonically; look at the shadows, how they shift, distort and transform their subjects, atomizing certain elements and agrandizing others. Visual polyphony: voltage as polyrhythm.
