Aural Tesserae

In sound designs, tones and notes may function as do tiles in a mosaic or shards of colored glass in a kaleidoscope.


The dynamic fluidity of tones in these arrangements enhances impressions of kinetic art-- sculptures, or mobiles composed of environmental or atmospheric sounds.

By nature these are nonlinear productions of uniquely peculiar symmetry, yet they are conceived and executed with the purpose of bringing aesthetically beautiful sound events into concrete, if somewhat ethereal, forms.
