DESCRIPTION:
Electronic music completed in 2003. Added video for my senior composition recital April, 2008.

[Make sure volume is turned up, much of the electronic sounds are pretty subtle.]

Program notes from the recital:

PLUTONIA (music 2003; video 2008)
I was terrified of working with pure electronic sounds and no written score, but was convinced by my much younger student cohorts that I needed to learn how to "work the machines" if I was going to continue in the field of music. After hours locked in the studio with ProTools and a Mac and using only samples, the result is this apocalyptic musical landscape.
