I've designated this place to put works in progress (media samples) along with a few choice selections of half-baked thoughts, schemes, questions, etc. Everything here is unfinished or unstarted and open to develop or die as the fates allow. Comments are welcome and appreciated. Thanks! jr

mid-summer work: Meridian Project and Windeye

This summer has been beautiful in Rhode Island.  I am excited to continue teaching in the Art and Film Media Departments at Rhode Island in the fall, as well as a new class on digital media production at Bryant University in the Spring. 

In the meantime, I have been continuing my work with the Meridian Project.  After two successfull performances – Dark Matter and Comets – I have recently received a grant from the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts to help fund our work, which will include a new performance piece about the sun, and an open-to-the-public glass marimba building workshop and performance.  More details soon.

I am also continuing work on the multifaceted project, Windeye, with Andie Springer.  This piece will have two iterations as a music video (fixed media) piece to be released with Andie's album at the end of the year, and an interactive installation and live performance.  I am mixing Andie's violin and voice parts this month with the wonderfully talented musician/engineer Brett Parnell.  Will post more samples soon!
