Audio Producing and Engineering

COUGH PARK COMPACT DISCS is a post podcast submission based mix system collaborative which is created a few times a year. A great deal of the audio is a result of the COUGH PARK HOTLINE.

Video Reel

Sunshine Interactive Network was a startup which created game prototypes, CD-ROMs and early websites. This is the reel from about 1997 which I cut while working there. It’s a fascinating snapshot of the time. The name of the company was based on the Sunshine Theater on Houston Street, which was then going to be a music venue.

Multi-cam Video of Opening for Droit

This is an experimental multi-cam video which documented the first opening of Gigantic Art Space (GAS) in downtown Manhattan. It was originally created on DVD where you could switch channels but here they are side by side. The opening featured artists from Detroit including Andrew Dosunmu, Mark Dancey, Tyree Guyton and others.
