New Work: Periodic Triumphs A short audio piece about an office building and the things inside it.

It's not just that I wrote a newsletter about the piece I made for @audioflux.bsky.social — it's that I also figured out how to include an image on the link down there ⬇️ even though the image is not in the post itself. Small wins! Or, if you will, periodic triumphs…

It was lovely listening to the short audio pieces from the Audio Flux @audioflux.bsky.social finalists at XMTR Festival

Some really inventive pieces

#AudioCommunity #ExperimentalSound

Floating home from the XMTR Festival somewhat delirious, with ears, hearts & brains teeming after 3 days of audio everything: stories, sounds, noise, music, swarm, static, cabaret. And! We met our Circuit 06 creative partner, the amazing Lorna Hamilton-Brown & presented 06 finalists. Magical!

Lorna's smile at the end 💙

Wondering how/why "Creative Tension" for our Circuit 06 theme? It came from a convo w/ Lorna Hamilton-Brown about her "tension birds" and how to meet this (rather) tense moment as artists & storytellers.

Deadline is 9/15. Plenty of time to submit your fluxwork! Details: www.audioflux.org/circuit-06

Why yes, this IS a room full of audiophiles doing their best Fluxy impressions, snapped at our recent launch event in Chicago with @chiaudiocollective.com!

Also: we're one month out from the Circuit 06 deadline. Plenty of time to craft a 3 minute fluxwork inspired by the theme: CREATIVE TENSION ✨

Here's another sweet vid from @audiopotluck who chatted with us at the @soundscenefest a couple months back about the why and what of Audio Flux. Circuit 06 is ON! The theme is creative tension, deadline is September 15, all details here:
