Process
In every story, between sound, object and context, there is a web of social and emotional meanings. My approach is to find this meaning in its most visceral form through collaboration. I believe an emotion that is shared offers a space for transcendence and that is what I aspire to create.
Lignes de Fuites - Empreintes Vestiges
En collaboration avec Empreintes Vestiges, j’ai eu la chance de composer ma première pièce pour un défilé de mode. Cette expérience, rendu possible par Lignes de Fuites et sous la direction artistique de George Fok, fût une chance de mettre 3 artistes Montréalais en vedette dans cet espace emblématique.
Jovick’s Surrender
Original composition and track mixing for Emma-lynn Mackay and Jovick Pavajeau-Orostegui’s duet “Jovick’s Surrender” at Festival Quartier Dance.
Ode Marine
In this second iteration of Anissa Boukili’s study on the relation between waves and sound, Ode Marine approached the concept from a social/ecological perspective, underlining globalization and human interference on ecosystems.
451 Saddler Street
Collaborative film made for a phytography workshop directed by Philip Hoffman at the fringe festival of film.
Go Back to Your Country
Original score for short documentary on asian hate crimes in Montreal. Go Back to Your Country boldly approaches systemic and social issues while seeking to understand the broader identity of the asian community in Canada.
Samples
The goal was malleability over random generation and a way to find the instantaneity of improvisation through technology. The result is a system that keeps me listening, keeps the movements clear and free. It is a very destructive process, you find a pattern that works then let randomness take it apart.
Flowers of Spring
What my conscious mind is not ready to understand my subconscious points me forwards to and with intuition and instinct I swim beneath the surface of thought scouring the veins of fallen leaves for paths towards the light.
