Theremin Forest, 2023

Thesis project submitted as part of the requirements of the Yale Sound MFA. Three metal sculptures were created to act as the pitch antennae in three theremin circuits. The raw audio signals from the theremins were processed via Max MSP, and used to control various characteristics of three digital instruments. Part of the project was to explore the most effective mapping of the theremin control signal onto pitch, timbre (i.e. filter parameters), and volume. The demo video shows the sculptures (abstract metal trees) interacting with a body, as well as very rudimentary explorations of movement and choreography (please note the body is not a trained dancer).

Capactive Noise, 2017

The capstone project I chose for my undergraduate degree involved creating an installation of touch- and proximity-sensitive objects.
