Artist statement:

"This tape is a collection of longform pieces that began in the summer of 2020, a time in which the swelling of civil unrest coincided with a suddenly unraveling home to make the calm of quarantine seem unnaturally still. pool of familial ephemera, I took time to document it all-slides, DV tapes, cassettes. I played archivist in an attempt to make talismans out of the debris, “picking up the pieces, doing what [I] can” as the booming voice of my grandfather speaks in his sermon. And so this record weaved over the past year into somewhat of a coping mechanism, companion, vessel, etc.

I found myself in a numb process, “Staring Blankly At The Loom” - the soundtrack to a film of the same name originally published on Cached.Media in May 2020. “Hauntological and fragmentary,” as curator Matt Sage described it. Synthesizers on tape, lossy guitars awash in reverb, and the always healing water of Texas creek beds. Tucked between collages of the artifacts that I found of my namesake I revisit walks from the summer, masses of marching bodies drowning in the names of those stolen through violence Roaring and churning and blending into what becomes raw emotion, at times overcasting what we're even there for. Swimming only in voices, I recall these streets as the radio static breathes of illness and apocalypse in some corner of the room. and gently, I exhale and listen."
