I use sound to communicate the largest ideas—holistic in the broadest sense and an abstract version of a unified theory. Sound is an excellent medium for conceptually harmonizing dissonance. While sight is our dominant sense, our ears detect a far wider range of frequencies. The eyes respond to an approximate doubling of light wave frequencies (red to violet), while the ear perceives ten times this range in sound waves. Because hearing is less dominant than vision, it allows more flexibility in our judgment. The sounds here—found and made—traverse macro and micro scales: from cosmic to terrestrial, geopolitical to our body's topography and plant communication.

The live aspect is critical; its ephemerality demands focused attention. The rawness of performance tethers the cosmic to the tangible. Site- and time-specific water recordings carry resonant frequencies from their origins—water being life's symbol, a vessel for memory. The alchemy of timeline editing speaks to globalization, interconnectedness, and communication (cosmic, bodily, interspecies), mirroring unified physics. The Cosmic Octave Planetary Tuning Forks vibrate at each planet's orbital frequency, with the Sun as core tone. These intervals echo universally, from celestial to cellular scales.
