I am thrilled to have a new long-form composition Testing the Waters, premiered this week on WDR 3 German radio. This piece was commissioned by WDR 3 radio this year. The presentation is accompanied by excerpts of an interview/conversation with Ilka Geyer.

Testing the Waters is a long-form electro-acoustic composition, shaped through episodic passages to form a sonic dérive. Constructed from archival and recent field-recordings, instrumental and electronic passages and studio processing, the piece was composed and constructed in the spring of 2023 in Berlin. The recurring sounds of water, in various forms, carries through the work and inspires its title.
