Scratch Theremin, Interspecies audio performance, 2011-14
In collaboration with Tom

For Scratch Theremin, I worked with Tom using a custom theremin to produce collaborative improvisational interspecies performance. I built a custom theremin that incorporates a rug as an interface to provide Tom with a scratching surface to gesture and create sounds. Tom accompanies his strumming with a diverse range of vocalizations. Recordings have been used in performances with custom mixing software by Simon Overstall.
