Preparing Notes for SU lecture and excerpt from Tongjing
Next week I am off to Salisbury University to deliver a talk and screen some of my films for the visiting artist lecture series (3/12/15). I am really grateful to have the opportunity to showcase my work and to discuss the audiovisual, landscapes, field recordings, and other things with the students of SU. Here is a link to the event. This is part of their exhibition Alternative Topographies In the meantime, below is a clip from a new work I will screen for the lecture along with super 8 films.
A special thanks to Li Xiaoxing for taking a number of us to TonJing last summer. A distinctive place along the banks of the Yangtze River in Jiangsu Province. More on this later

Foot Notes : On the Sensation of Tone, Opening Night at Apexart Gallery in NY City
A wonderful time at the opening of the Foot Notes: On the Sensation of Tone exhibition curated by Alastair Noble. A special and heartfelt thanks to the Gallery staff and owner Steven Rand. The attendance was high from start to finish and everyone seemed intrigued by all of the work on display. It was also a great opportunity for me to experience and engage in other sound works by Ed Osbourne, Chris Watson, Annea Lockwood,Robert Macfarlane and David Rothenberg. I definitely will be going back! The exhibition runs until March 7, if you are in New York, check it out!

Foot Notes: On The Sensations of Tone at the Apex Art Gallery in NY City January 15-March 7th
I am really excited that the ongoing Miniature Landscape Correspondence project that Una Lee and I created is going to be part of this wonderful sound event curated by Alistair Noble.
Here is the link and some very insightful text on the Miniature Landscape Correspondence:
Another international venture is built with field recordings, the source of the raw unedited audio-visual postcards or Miniature Landscape Correspondences (2013), a collaborative project between Una Lee in South Korea and Chris H. Lynn in the United States. This again relies on a two-way call-and-response process of on-site audio recordings, coupled with a steady visual and audio rhythm. These reflect the direct experience of the everyday from each vantage point of the correspondent. The unassuming public spaces are captured to relay an intimate association for a private missive between friends. Short, without text, just two video shots with recording of urban or natural sites, no narrative or texts are recorded; it is purely the transmission of an atmosphere by each party. Here, poetic moments of image and sound convey all. Initially, current social networking sound bytes are conjured up with these very short audio visual videos, however they more closely resemble 19th century epistles between fellow poets. Once again the ruminations of Coleridge come to mind in which his communiqués transform his reader through poetic verse.
