about

reorientation: 1 is a fifty-five minute long guitar improvisation, a reconsideration of works of mine which no longer personally resonate, an exploration of the sonic materiality of my bedroom, and a search for things which I have lost since I began playing guitar 15 years ago.

This album is the first of four--each featuring a different instrument which I have regularly improvised on.

This recording is dedicated to my brother, Jim.
