About

In its most simple sense, Live Coding is making music with programming languages but in actuality it's a cross-disciplinary practice that blurs the line between composer and performer. I construct, destruct, and reconstruct musical algorithms in front of audiences and expose my screen to them using a projector. I use a form of object-oriented programming to define classes that hold states and schedule sonic events which go on to evolve and devolve over time. As an improvised process, the flavour of my music will range from ambient to noise to beat-driven techno but it is the method that makes what I do interesting. The performance could be described as improvised composition that incorporates an immediacy in its feedback loop between code and sound where the journey is much more important than the destination.
