PARTICIPATION
The Weight of Choice explores the sonic residue of creation, translating the act of drawing and painting into an immersive auditory experience. Using amplified contact microphones, the friction of tools against paper, the fluidity of poured pigment, and the subtle sounds of the performer’s body become a dynamic composition. These raw textures are manipulated in real time, revealing an evolving soundscape shaped by impulse, tension, and release.
This work is structured by the unpredictable nature of gesture and material interaction. Each mark leaves both a visual and sonic imprint, blurring the boundaries between thought, movement, and resonance. The Weight of Choice invites the audience to listen to the unseen—to the subconscious movements of the hand, the weight of decision, and the echoes of creative process itself.

Inside My Quiet Mind is an introspective sound collage that drifts through the subtle turbulence of inner stillness. Layering manipulated field recordings, distorted whispers, and resonant textures, the piece evokes the mind’s quiet hum—where thought, memory, and emotion blur. Gentle yet dissonant waves of sound emerge and dissolve, mimicking the ebb and flow of contemplation. Tactile elements like breath, distant echoes, and organic frequencies shape a meditative yet restless sonic landscape. This composition invites listeners to navigate the liminal space between silence and subconscious noise, revealing the fragile equilibrium within.
