Polis / Desk Installation
For this piece I created a small office environment. The desk was wired with localized contact microphones that amplified the scratching sound of writing through hidden speakers with reverb. It aimed to make an intimate sound booming and public.

CCTV Closet Installation
This piece was installed at Bard College's "Sound Symposium" in April of 2016. The closet had two "bass-shaker" transducers bolted on the interior frame which violently shook the structure and created a beating bass tone that could be heard from afar. Opening the door immediately shut of the sound. Stepping inside kept the sound off. Inside there was a small monitor showing an empty back yard.
