About:

Everything in life has a rhythm. It has a tempo - if you're conscious of this, you can experience it. I live for that magic moment when all things are in sync - their rhythms and tempi reacting and building off one another. The slicing of video and audio to a rhythmic and musical structure is more than a technique for me; it's how I view the world. By combining turntablism, electronic music, and video art I'm creating a seamless integration. To do this I use dance-inspired backing music, improvised sound/video snippets and video scratching. It's not enough to sample a song, an instrument, or a visual. Many people do remixes. Though that appeals to me, I need more. I want to remix reality. To reconstruct memories and inspiration from the past, present, and future, disassemble them, and create new works from a wide range of sources is the nucleus of my work.
The alias Faith in the Glitch speaks to both an audio technique of stutter edits and repeating small chunks of audio and video, but it also speaks to a lot more. The glitch can happen to any system. Glitch means failure of technology. Breakdown of art, corporate structures, social order, and technology are commonplace in our lives. By seeing glitches in everyday life and remanufacturing them into some sense of order, I feel I can begin to understand their true nature. Accept that they're there, and work around them, exploit them, and question them. A faith in the glitch is faith in change, potential, and the knowledge that perfection cannot exist.
