I'm pleased to say that I am the inaugural artist in residence at the Fall River MoCA "Sound Cell," a portion of the gallery dedicated to the sonic arts. I will be christening the space with a 3-hour durational performance this evening, Oct 10, from 5 to 8 during the opening of the Post Scarcity Sculpture show in the main gallery.

CROSS CURRENTS/CONTRACORRENTES 🌊 Developed through a FABRIC Arts Festival residency, this sound installation by Daniel Wyche & Matthew Azevedo uses field recordings from the Azores & New England to explore memory, displacement, and transatlantic migration. The artists capture the acoustic textures of the Atlantic—from the beaches of Povoação to the docks of New Bedford—collecting the sounds of the sea, wind, birds, and human presence. The work closely listens and re-listens, looks and looks again, to the Atlantic not only as a site of passage, but as a living connector between communities, past and present. . — 🟢 FREE ADMISSION 💸 📆 11 OCT - 6-8PM 🏛 AS220 - Providence — Fabric 2025 is organized by Casa dos Açores da Nova Inglaterra (C.A.N.I.) #fabricartsfestival #vivafallriver #danielwyche #matthewazevedo

Ep98 Barn -> Studio🦋 I’d like to take a moment to thank my fine friend Matthew Azevedo. Matt has been involved in the Wondersmith Studio project since the very beginning (Fall 2021!!) - both with the fantastic folks at @acentechpics and on his own (now a professor at @umasslowell ) Matt did a noise study, documenting trucks passing by and crickets at night, to determine how much sound isolation we should shoot for. Then Matt advised on all the nuances of sound isolation, quiet HVAC, and much more (in an antique building no less). Later, Matt measured the room and designed custom acoustic treatments (built by @soundwallconstruction ), creating a reflection free zone at the mix position and targeting the problematic bass modes. All along Matt was a pleasure, even a thrill to work with! Today, this room is not only visually gorgeous (credit to @lucasmulder @emigrepictures for the shots 😍) but sounds phenomenal. It is accurate for mixing, and with just the right amount of reverberation for tracking acoustic instruments. Between the main room, dry iso booth, and area under the loft there are sonic options. And we are featured in the June issue of @mixonlineig ! Thank you Matt for being along for the Wondersmith Audio journey! @retribution_body @azevedoaudio #wondersmithaudio #studioconstruction #barnstudio #acoustics

Ep60 Barn -> Studio 🦋 Shooting the Room, Pt. 1 With the door and iso window covered with plywood, friend and acoustician @azevedoaudio came to "shoot the room" 🔫💥. What does this mean? Using Room EQ Wizard software, Matt sent noise and sine wave sweep tones through my @martinaudio Blackline speaker rig, to excite the low frequency resonant modes of the empty room. Using a @minidsp_team measurement microphone he captured the results from various points in the room, for further study, and to help us design targeted bass traps/absorption! 📸 @violetblitzsound #wondersmithaudio #studioconstruction #roomeqwizard

Big news! I have accepted a tenure-track appointment as assistant professor of sound recording technology at UMass Lowell. Since recording, composing, and performing all fall under my publishing requirements as a music professor that will all keep happening and hopefully will even increase, but I will largely be stepping away from acoustics consulting after finishing my current projects. I've been teaching for 20 years now, and I can't express how happy I am to be able to dedicate myself fully to it. But, that will be in September. Who wants to make music with me this summer?
