A hydrophone submerged in carbonated water and ice captures brittle, Arctic resonances. Sonic world-building involves identifying and recording rich acoustic sources, and then transforming them, much like a sculptor shapes raw material. Setting up a processing chain with the right hardware and software allows the oscillations to grow into unheard, emergent forms.

 
For my sound design I do a lot of field recording. I like to use different types of microphones to get the most interesting, creative recording I can get before I
start to work on them with tools like granular engines, waveshapers, equalizers
and compressors. Over the years, I’ve developed an ever-expanding sound library, ranging from the beautiful, dinosaur-like rattling of caracara birds to the rich
gurgling of swimming pool bubbles.
