Touring almost perpetually for several years now I'm inspired by variety and in approaching each performance/project/recording as a unique event. I often perform solo and also with many others in different sizes and combinations sometimes with dance, poetry, and/or film, composition, song and/or free improvisation. A performance might be almost completely saturated in dissonance, abstraction and velocity, or original melodies and modes, a combination of both, and/or something else entirely. Sometimes with much silence or none at all.

I've performed in concert halls, warehouses, squats, universities, jazz and rock clubs and festivals, nuclear test sites, Indian land, on t.v., radio and in riots. I've played in West-African drumming troups, gamelan orchestras, punk bands, as the soloist in piano concertos and many free egalitarian improv ensembles, with famous people, infamous people, unknowns, academics, prisoners, old masters and children, often only for myself and birds, sometimes only in my mind.

I make music that I think stimulates the mind and the body, that's intellectual and sexy and meditative and ferocious and poetic and athletic and revolutionary and spiritual and political and loving and that shakes people awake, starting with me first.
