It feels to me like the artist website has become a relic of where we used to go to see an artist’s work. Nowadays, the archive is mostly flattened into the awful interface of mega platforms, like instagram and twitter, etc. It is a terrible circumstance in which artists are bound to perform for platforms that utilize surveillance capitalism to monitor and monetize every action and interaction with my work. I am working on creating a new system for people who make interdisciplinary performance to share their work. In the meantime, until I update my website, please check out many recent projects here:

AN INTRODUCTION TO XOIR

XOIR is a methodology of group-singing that began in 2013, rooted in experimentation and exploration, focusing on collective organizing and somatic awareness over the priority of memorizing and reciting music in the binaries of western music. XOIR is not about professionalism or assimilation, and encourages amateurism as a precedent.
