I trained an AI model on my watercolours.
This is me recording an excerpt of my libretto of 'GORGON' the opera, accompanied by my latest flute composition. I made a little abstract movie for you to get a flavour of the setting.
This marks the beginning of a series of stories told through flute, v...

I'm currently plotting out a mythical AI-opera centered around the flute and breath. I always like to move fluidly between text, music and image, even if it’s only for me. I’m working between Word, Scrivener, Ableton, flute and paper. Here are some initial watercolours which give you a glimpse into the opera.
I'm ex...

Greetings from Los Angeles, where I am enjoying a very different side of the world until the end of Feb. I crave new landscapes and often get down under dark skies - who doesn't? - so this is giving me a moment to recharge and research for upcoming projects, which I will be revealing very soon. I am staying in a cute bu...

Thank you for your questions which got me thinking a lot about animals, wildness, nfts, domestication, orderliness, fragments, and envy.
