Quick Glance:
“I thought that it wouldn’t work at all in a radio envi­ron­ment, but the sta­tion wanted to do the fea­ture and the response from the lis­ten­ers was actu­ally very pos­i­tive. A label even approached me after­wards. I think I have changed my mind about it now and there will be an audio-​only release soon. But either way, visual or not, the story of how the music was gen­er­ated is impor­tant. It’s half the expe­ri­ence. The visual part is actu­ally just explain­ing and stress­ing the idea, but it also works if you just tell the story along­side the music.”

Quick Glance:
“I don’t really worry about the dif­fer­ence between the dig­i­tal and phys­i­cal sides of my process because they are both things that are equally impor­tant to me. My entire life has been medi­ated by tech­nol­ogy. I’ve been play­ing video games, using com­put­ers for as long as I can remem­ber. I got my first Atari from a KB Toys fire sale when I was 4. They are both inte­gral parts of the way I have always processed expe­ri­ence. There is some­thing spe­cific that hap­pens when you put brush to mate­r­ial though. I sup­pose the dig­i­tal side of things is def­i­nitely the prag­matic side, while the romance comes from the phys­i­cal, ana­log side. I need a lot more space (and time) to prop­erly fig­ure this out but that’s a good start.”

Quick Glance:
“There’s really so much to be said about remix­ing, and so many dif­fer­ent ways to approach it. Lately, I have been look­ing at it is as a way of decon­struct­ing and recon­struct­ing. I’ve been really into get­ting into the fine details and remix­ing those. In the past, I would make videos and remix chunks of frames, which I think is what most peo­ple asso­ciate with remix, mov­ing whole parts around, and reor­ga­niz­ing them to dis­rupt the ini­tial flow or nar­ra­tive and build some­thing sim­i­larly new. This retains the famil­iar­ity of the source mate­r­ial. But I’ve been try­ing to approach the remix on a more fun­da­men­tal level. So rather than remix chunks of con­tent, I’ve been break­ing each frame down and remix­ing that. I’ll start with a frame of video, and maybe lower the res­o­lu­tion of it, so I don’t have as many pix­els to work with, but ulti­mately, I’m try­ing to reor­ga­nize that frame of pix­els. So it com­pletely changes the con­tent. It’s a dif­fer­ent approach, but at the core, it’s still remixing.”
