Grain of Life, my new plug-in, out now! Link in bio /grain-of-life/ Grain of Life is an audio effect plugin that fuses granular processing with Conway’s Game of Life. A cellular automaton runs in real time where every living cell triggers a grain of audio in the stereo field as the scan line passes through. Your textures evolve, mutate, and breathe without you touching a thing. Draw cells directly on the grid or randomize to get started. Choose from three rule sets: classic Conway for evolving patterns, Coral for dense expanding textures, or Maze for intricate steady-state complexity. Shape your grains with controls for size, density, pitch intervals, reverse probability, filtering, and more. Audio used in demo: @crasher.band @magnetic.heaven - Calf

Overworld - out now wherever you consume music 12 tracks, 45 minutes dark ambient, new age, hauntology this started as a companion piece to the Operant LP I released a few months ago, but ended up taking on a deeper meaning / form for me as I was editing. the record was assembled piecemeal from improvised recording sessions throughout the year, with samples sourced from FM radio broadcast and run thru the modular synth rig. it feels reflective of a change in how I approach art practice. this one is dedicated to san diego, late night coastal drives, solitude, snowfall in olympia, the modular synth lab at evergreen state college, and my incredible wife @omo.cloud enjoy and make things always ∞ “And somehow the music we all grew up listening to doesn’t relate to our adult reality and our new dreams. The music we grew up with doesn’t speak for us in the new era we’re now going through. Our childhood dreams have become the basis for our adult fantasies, and now, simply, we all grew up to be something new. Surprisingly enough, main question to mind is, “Have you changed?” And the answer to that is, “Uh... yes!””
