Ito - いと
ito was written for Eric Clark - Violin, Vicki Ray - Piano, and Amy Knoles - Percussion of the California E.A.R. Unit. Ito can mean thread or intentions in Japanese. The recording is from a reading in Grant Recital Hall at Brown University on March 8, 2012. The percussionist plays the strings inside of the piano with a rubber mallet, and the violin player plays right next to the open-lid piano to get subtle resonance. Score available upon request.
Performers: California E.A.R. Unit - Eric Clark; violin, Vicki Ray; piano, and Amy Knoles; percussion

Far
In Far, I focus on creating a foundation of drones that weave throughout the piece. These long tones come and go. I intend the gradual and subtle movements of layered sounds to embrace any emotions that listeners may contain in their hearts. They also provide a moment of respite from their ordinary life. The sound sources are Moog III P, as well as voice and flute filtered through the analog modular synthesizer.

Vertical
I imaged the pillars of lights coming from cracks of clouds in the sky. This piece is made with Max/MSP using both synthesis in the program and recorded samples of triangleand voice. 2007
Itsu
A direct translation of the word "itsu" from Japanese to English is "when." By playing the spacing of different instruments, I intended to represent different worlds that never come cross and to give a feeling of dreams. 2008
