    eco-wallet (no plastic wrap) with hand-collaged dried flowers and wax details

    each physical object is hand-made and unique. because it uses natural elements, it will change and fall apart over time—do not worry, that is the nature of things.

    inside each wallet is a small packet of seeds that are native to your area—scatter them.

    If you have an allergy/sensitivity to beeswax or flowers, please inform me.

    Some delays in shipping might occur as each CD contains elements that take time to prepare; generally ships in one week.

about

field anatomies is a collection of blisteringly physical works for flutes.

From the imagined geographies of massive spatialized arrays and speculative architectures of resonance, to the precarity of atmospheres devoid of oxygen and physicalities in tender flux, these works create constellations of the flute-body.

Each of these recordings is the result of a long-term collaborative relationship with the composers—both on the recorded work, and in several other performance contexts, from theater works to installations, and from improvisations to creating digital video collages—the relationships here are as cared for as each presented piece. The works of Bird and Younge were commissioned by and written for me. These works have all dramatically shaped my relationship with my flute-vocabulary, both in individual technical glossaries and in the analytical realms that each work invites.
