Shadow Objects for fixed media (2022)

​Casting the shadow of a three-dimensional object on a two-dimensional plane transforms its original shape into something that looks distorted, broken, and unrecognizable at times, yet it can move in a sporadic yet expressive way. The music is inspired by observing this behavior, helping us realize that we can discover endless beauty in the struggle and imperfection of life. Eventually, we become appreciative of what might appear to be fragile, or even faulty on the surface.

The samples are primarily processed and manipulated with Tasty Chips Electronics’ GR-1 Hardware Granular Synthesizer before additional post-processing and editing on the computer.
