Faculty Member, Music

Lecturer

About

My main research interests are, on the creative side of things,  electroacoustic composition and free improvisation, and on the scholarly side the application of psychoanalytically informed  cultural theory to investigate voice and vocality - particularly the voice as mediated by recording technologies - subject formation in/through music, and how musical creativity and reception interface with notions of tradition, innovation, formalism, and spontaneity.  Strong thematics include surrealism, Artaud, phonography, Walter Benjamin, Jacques Lacan, recording technology, embodied and enactive consciousness, and sonic gesture.
