Sawing Sound
Video study grid

Play any or all of these videos to see and hear them together; make the browser window full-screen for the largest size videos.
This works properly on desktop or laptop browsers (mobile devices tend not to let multiple videos play at once). 
Use caution with the sound, as the more videos played the louder it will be. At full-screen, the individual videos will show volume sliders for more sound control. TIP: lower the volume slider or mute the volume on a single video, then refresh the browser window and that audio setting will carry over to all the videos.
This work is an interactive collection of videos made during the past five years, using real-time video synthesis and sound manipulation. Each video was made individually using an analog to digital workflow (for both imagery and sound), using both analog hardware and computer software. On this website visitors can create an endless series of variations using each video (all are less than 5 minutes in length), with control of the play and volume level in all of them.
Visually, each video is an exploration of tightly oscillating patterns in color and monochrome, and the visual arrangements are directly manipulated by the sound input. The sound itself is based in my work with the singing saw, fed through digital software processing. Collected together, by the choices of the website visitors, all of these videos can create a continuously shifting (at times calm or chaotic) tapestry of movement and sound.
