I was the chief sound organizer at the KOAP Gallery, New York in 1995. Since 1996, I have collaborated with many visual artists and sound performers at CAVE Gallery (Brooklyn, NY), the Williamsburg Art & Historical Center (Brooklyn, NY), the Knitting Factory (New York), and in galleries throughout New York, Japan and Europe. My sound works create a sense of space consciousness, which sparks a kinesthetic response in the listener. The sound composition I created for Cenesthesia is structurally based on architectural thought. And yet the sound still affects the listener as though it were language.
