Carol Genetti and I began improvising together in 1997. Carol is a multi-talented media artist whose practice is grounded in free improvisation. Quoting from her bio, “…with a desire to unlock subconscious ideas and unexpected outcomes. She has performed widely as an experimental vocalist, with synthesizers, various objects and video projections. Her videos of dream-like imagery are processed along with audio through an analog A/V synthesizer in real time producing rhythmic layers of flickering and vibrating patterns for hypnotic effect.”

The electroacoustic Springboard is central to my instrumentation augmented by electronic instruments.

Carol and I last performed at Constellation Chicago with Birgit Ulher from Hamburg, Germany, to celebrate our trio’s CD release of horizontal shift, on Amalgam Music.
