Ever since I was a kid I’ve enjoyed making collages, playing with tape recorders and taking pictures. Arranging and juxtaposing sounds and images to find hidden meaning, or just plain silliness.
Nowadays, my work is informed by investigations into Chaos and Emergence. Using the tools and lenses of culture and technology, I investigate the emergent order that unfolds at the intersection of my perception, my will, and the physical world.
Since my own philosophy is constantly reformulating, I hope the following randomly generated paradigm will serve as my artist’s statement. To paraphrase Marx(1): These are my principles, if you don’t like them then click here, I have others.
Even before thought, it is sound that divides our experience into space and time. The present is in dynamic tension between being and becoming. Along the 4th dimension, matter descends, as energy expands, through concentric strata (geosphere, aquasphere, atmosphere, nöosphere, ideosphere, kaosphere) along a vector that radiates from the fractal heart of now… No complex system can be understood in isolation.
