Landscape Tempos are audiovisual views (scenes, occurrences) that reflect the rhythm and tempo of isolated moments in urban and rural landscapes. The locations for these tempos include: Rhode Island, USA; Washington, USA; Maryland, USA; Alencon, France; Nanjing, China.

I am thrilled and honored  to share a new track  with Japanese  Sound Artist Hiroko Komiya. Our collaboration has produced quite a few tracks, but we felt Rendezvous Cycles  is the most fitting since the Brood X cicada phenomena  is slowly winding down here on the East Coast.  Look for more  sounds in the future. Here is some info on the wonderful Brood X cicadas

Some info on Hiroko here 

and one of her releases here

Hiroko is currently based in Italy.

Enjoy!

I recorded some Brood X cicadas today with my phone. I apologize the quality is not the best, I was not really  prepared for such a chorus; it seems they really emerged with the summer-like heat.  Certainly will be recording more in the future.

I am  really thrilled Video Strolls included my film November afternoon in their program Looking at Trees for the Urban Tree Festival in London. Here is a link to their page and go here to see the amazing lineup at the Urban Tree Festival. More updates soon. The film is below, but do check out the other films, readings and events.

A new landscape work on the Chesapeake Bay  which may develop into a larger project

Fascinating and brilliant article in Perfect Sound Forever by Daniel Barbiero on Field Recordings. A few tracks from my work Qixia, which was released on Impulsive Habitat a few years ago, are mentioned in the Appendix, along with other wonderful artists. Go here to read: http://furious.com/perfect/fieldrecordings.html… Lots to contemplate.

You can listen to Qixia here
