    For a long time I have listened to the classical elements for cues in playing and composing. Sometimes, matching my breath to the rhythm of the waves or patterns of the wind I am able to find the delicate balance between internal and external rhythms from where a musical rhythm can emerge.
  Wind Duo was an improvised performance that came out of a larger improvisatory context; within the setting of a shared farmhouse and a photographic installation/residency project of Sara A.Tremblay – Sara and I spent an afternoon in front of cameras and microphones, capturing and live streaming to the internet, a performance relating our two practices within a single frame. Slowly and silently, we assembled the set, harvested from the garden, ate from the harvest, established our rhythms, and began to explore the scene through our respective conceptions of play. Freely using all available elements of the environment, the visual and auditory frames gradually filled with the gleeful chaos and minute instances of joy typical of a late summer garden.
    Towards the end of the multi-hour performnace, a long flowing mesh fabric was draped over the set, which introduced an additional portal into the rhythmic domain, and it was this cue that initiated an impromptu composition for drums, electronics and wind, titled WIND DUO.
