give me light

It is not common for me to do art that is not rooted in sound or music. But with these photos—found on my Flickr—I attempted to bring the emotion, improvisation, and general aesthetics of what I do with sonic art into a visual form. This involved me taking the photos in an improvisational manner—emphasizing meaningful movements, attempting to take some shots without going back and trying for something else, and so on. I edited the photos in a similar matter, going with my instincts and seeing where the edits took me rather than having a very specific final product in mind. This project was also attached to music through the subjects of the photographs as well as album art from various music I was listening to around the time of the project.

Think of darkness as a sort of visual silence.
