One fast move or I'm gone

A stereo composition structured more like cinema than music - jump cuts, broken scenes, interrupted rhythms. Based on Jack Kerouac's Big Sur, this electroacoustic work uses minimal processing to evoke narrative movement through internal and external space.

An electroacoustic work based on Jack Kerouac’s Big Sur.

The piece won second prize in Oxford’s first Electronic Music Prize.

Field recordings, ambient structures, and abrupt edits create a sonic parallel to Kerouac’s fragmented, deteriorating state of mind.

Structured more like cinema than music - jump cuts, broken scenes, interrupted rhythms.

A study in psychological geography and field phonography, the piece uses minimal processing to evoke narrative movement through internal and external space.
