Home, a visual music project

When I was 14 years old, I bought my first camcorder. I took it everywhere and filmed everything. Fortunately, this was pre-youtube so my videos never made it to the internet.

Until now, I suppose.

I started this little project to explore music, a medium that’s deeply evocative for me.

It includes spoken word from writers and artists I appreciate alongside original audio, AI-generated sounds, and borrowed samples pieced together in Ableton.

I hope you enjoy it. But no pressure!

I made this for myself anyway. :)
