In this recording, I step away from the relentless virtuosity found in most saxophone repertoire. Instead, I use relatively simple improvisations as raw material to generate electronic soundscapes that immerse the imagination as they shift from atmospheric introspection to aggressive harsh noise.
The philosopher and theologian Henry Corbin understood the imagination as the liminal space between regular perception and spiritual realization. One might contemplate a series of religious icons, an oracle deck, or other mystical images, and allow these to lead the imagination to unexpected insights, synchronicities, and experiences. On this recording, this practice is transferred to sound—listening becomes an act of imaginative reflection.
