(± one year of assisting other composers)

including Cat Lamb, Chiyoko Szlavnics, and Arnold Dreyblatt — 2024

the preparations of the Echonance Festival at Orgelpark Amsterdam in 2024 and 2025 led me to technically assist many composers/musicians i had admired for years (Catherine Lamb, Elisabeth Smalt, Arnold Dreyblatt and Chiyoko Szlavnics). this assistance was multifaceted, from SuperColliding, sharing perspectives on rationally tuned systems, performing and listening.

those experiences were profound and highlights in my musical path, which i partially recounted on substack post you may read here: https://disceque.substack.com/p/assisting-others
