​
Performed live at Gallery 16, San Francisco on homemade speakers created from panes of tempered glass, an amplified constellation of wine glasses of my own devising, and glass piccolo.

Xani-Doo (2021) is a tribute to three of my favorite artists: Olivia Newton-John, John Oswald (the godfather of plunderphonics), and D.J. Screw. Xanadu (1980) was one of my favorite movies growing up and I have made countless versions of the title track.

Sonata for Balloons and Candy (2019) was recorded at the Center for New Music in SF and was the first work I composed as the sole performer. Written in sonata form and involved a mukbang of over 2lbs of candy as the video component. Equal parts ASMR and tooth decay.
