loose ends - improvs & accidents


My latest release is a collection of unrelated pieces made over the past couple years. Over 2 hours of music on a variety of instruments using most of the techniques I currently employ. Where I been; where I'm headed.

name your price

Hello friends. As of today, all my digital releases - past, present and future - will be available as "name your price" downloads on my bandcamp site. I will still make the occassional cd or limited edition, but with things being as they are, it's just the simplest, most honest and fair way to share my work in the world. So if you'd like some or all of it for free, by all means go ahead and download it. If you'd like to pay a little or a lot for it, know that it will help me continue to do this work and that I very much appreciate it. Either way, I'm humbled and grateful that you would spend time listening to my music. Thank you for your support, past, present and future. Peace.

Limited Edition Note Cards and Music

video

"foam" is a limited edition set of note cards created from binary images taken with a toy game system/camera. Binary photographs are a form of digital photography where each pixel can only have one of two values: on or off. Each value is assigned a color, in this case black or white. The accompanying music is an excerpt of a half hour bonus track created on the same day from a processed tuning fork matrix. Only 12 sets are available and can be found here: http://ricktarquinio.bandcamp.com/merch
