While in Berlin I plan to continue making work that offers viewers a multi-sensory experience to explore perceptual environments and ecosystem relationships. The work will position the viewer / listener as performer, inviting us to explore perception and relationships between humans and non-human systems, to engage sonically and challenge the ways we experience the world. Why do we perceive our world the ways we do? How could we practice new forms of perception, and how could this play into worldmaking? How can sculpture render the inaudible audible? How can we make audible a site’s sonic signature? What are ways that sculpture can introduce new sonic elements to that signature? And what can sculpture say about a site’s relationships between movement, space and sound?

I am curious about questions like: what are different ways to perceive and understand movement and sound and space? Which elements of a particular site are we perceiving or not perceiving? What are ways of co-creating with non-humans and natural processes? What are ways that site-specific installations can yield site-specific scores, and what those scores might say about the acoustic ecology of a place? Can sound enable us to better understand ecology? What can be learned of a site’s biosymphony–an ephemeral sound signature of organisms interacting with one another—as it relates to ecological relationships and sculptural relationships? What are different ways to listen, and what can listening do for us and our relationships with our world?
