::gardening of sonic experience

Al is composing, mixing, seeding, sowing, nurturing, and ultimately harvesting sound — leveraging multi-instrumental play, field sampling, vocalization (from self and other-than-self source), synthesizing, and deep, deep listening.

*Receptive to community collaboration, production, mixing, and composing opportunities in 2025.*

((to indulge a listening experience, press the triangle shaped play button in the playlist above — from here you may consider pausing, closing your eyes, remembering your thighs, your palms’ warmth, how fast is your heart beating? you’re curious. you’re breathing. you may choose to skip around, get up and dance. lay down. scroll. wonder where or when there will be more to consume. more to be curious about. feed. listen. gentle now. we arrive again.))

::expression of emergent imagery

once steeped in the deceptive directive of a community college professor: “you will only make money in art if you become a graphic designer” — Al has since liberated visual expression toward a space/mindset of hobby, play, and meditation.

Tempted occasionally by collaborative requests or commissions, please don’t hesitate to reach out with curiosities for poster designs, album artwork, light branding, web design, or general visual f*ckery and fun. all work is sliding scale — pay what you can/what pleases us to agree upon.

The Bees Made Me Gay

The bees made me gay.

And the rain.

The scattered drops of wet across my face.

The sun made me gay.

The warmth seeding deep and sprouting slowly.

The stars made me gay.

And the moon.

And the willow tree.

Swaying her branches down to caress my temples.

The earth made me gay,

and each breath in

and each exhale

We Are Earth

– this declaration of connectivity, this insistence on interdependence, of immersion, of deep belly resonance, bubbling up to throat and fingers: we are earth.

We are collections of frog eggs, tensionless residence in electric green growth, soon < emergence into liquid, to form new sounds and slippery skins. We are sunset hues, violet if we’re lucky < how gentle on the cheeks when we let ourselves be touched by colors. We are embers glowing, settled down from roars and snaps of brightest burn. Yet we are the roaring, also. We are the snapping. Do you hear us? Do you feel us when you walk? Barefoot, and/or gentle on the knees now — lay down. Lay down on us. We hold. We hold and nourish. We cry out, and squirm, and burry ourselves deep in soil. We burrow. We collect rainwater into cauldrons, crafted by clearings and ever-present need for hydration. We are water. We are droplets forming on the tips of pine needles, to glisten in lightstreams. We are formed and forming. We are decomposing tissue, consumption and defecation. We are erupting. We are golden.

We are ____________________________.

This is earth. This is us.

Monday

1. The sun is bright on snow laden branches.
2. Orange glow on white capped evergreens bathes the morning in soft light
3. Glow, sweet morning, on branches touched by yesterday’s snowfall and all of our hopes.

Swell Of Warm Bodies

Here to place

hands on naked bodies,

human, non-human

Fingers splayed

Here to experience

     touch of skin and cells

Here to embrace

          swell of warm bodies

Born to expand

Correlation to growth

And our micro movements

may go undetected, but never

Never not felt

Never not loved

I reach back

you were behind me

Keep us all dancing

like goddamn fireflies

through grassy realms

giddy with laughter and the promise of tomorrow

::movement with pain & pleasure

With marginal modern & contemporary dance training, and extensive experience in solo/nature-rooted dance improvisation, Al is currently most interested in queer- centric contract improv and expressive community play spaces centering safe and emergent collective movement(s).

*More to come* and here we are, dancing, aren’t we? eyes across words. little fingers finding movement toward expanded information. fun. to dance with you now. fun.

::infinite reincarnation of form

Al is an expression garden(er) tending to connection-centric composition, sound-making, vocalization, poetics, performance, and generative time/space cultivation. existentially devoted to the record-keeping of perceived reality, they prioritize metaconscious exploration, liberation movement(s), and queer intimacy with the earth as home/self/us.

Currently incubating & growing at The Essence Of Yolk near PDX, OR.
