Record Breaker No. 2 (Record Repeater)
Description Record Breaker No. 2 (Record Repeater) is a modified turntable that feeds its output back into its own, creating a feedback loop that is controlled by the proximity of your hand to the base of the tonearm. The work allows itself to be used as an instrument (separate from the conventional notions of DJ’ing),

Record Breaker No. 3 (Record Shifter)
Description Record Breaker No. 3 (Record Shifter) is a prepared turntable that shifts its tempo in the frequency of the tonearm’s actuation, fixed with a motor that rotates in approximately 33 RPM. It produces shifts in pitch due to the small changes in the linear position of the tonearm, as opposed to the rotational movement

Record Breaker No. 4 (Record Scratcher)
Description Record Breaker No. 4 (Record Scratcher) is a collection of modified turntables with proximity sensors that allow the audience to scratch the record without physically touching the record. The turntable, similar to Record Shifter, also has a motor attached to the tonearm, which along with the turntable’s motor are only activated in changes of

Sound Mirror (No. 1)
AUDIO PREVIEW Description Sound Mirror (No.1) is an interactive installation and an instrument. It produces varying sounds based on an individual’s presence, movement, and proximity to the panel. It acts as an interface for an intimate self-examination and sonically mirrors an individual’s presence. There are two main electronic sensors on the panel; a movement sensor

SYNTAX ERRORS
Description The title of the performance is a reference to mistakes that can occur during the process of writing code — that is, when the computer cannot recognize or understand a command that you are attempting to make it do. It speaks to the lack of linguistic flexibility of technology with these errors that prevents

Transference (Study)
Technical Description Two surface transducers emitting low-frequency sine waves are mounted on the upper horizontal arms of a wooden framework. Small mirrors are attached to the ends of these arms to reflect laser beams onto a surface. Vibrations from the transducers cause the mirrors to oscillate, deflecting the laser light to produce undulating pink light

Transfiguration (Study)
Technical Description Three channels of black and white high-definition video playback. A camera directed at a projection of its own live feed, positioned to capture a human figure performing movements in front of a blank wall. The setup generates a video feedback loop of recursive, propagating images. A continuous loop of 3 minutes and 33

Patterns of Migration (Study)
Technical Description Two wooden conga drums are positioned vertically atop black subwoofers. Various spices are distributed across the drum heads. Low-frequency audio signals are transmitted through the subwoofers to induce vibration in the spice particles.
