evolution/revolution

i've got a couple of pieces in the "evolution/revolution" show at the RISD museum in providence, including "the silence dress": infused with sound, but with a patch of ultimate voidness.

bjork dress

i was invited by people magazine to create a sonic fabric dress that bjork could, hypothetically, wear to the grammy awards. this photo of my new "radio tower dress" was published in the 2/6/08 "hollywood daily" issue of people.

sonic fishdress 2004

this video was given to me years ago by an anonymous phish fan. i made the dress for jon out of tape recorded with samples of his favorite music, culled from his enormous tape collection.

julio cesar

my very dear friend julio cesar has been making the most spectacular things out of sonic fabric. his neckties, in particular, are absolutely stunning. to order, please feel free to contact julio directly.

sonic fabric sails

to make a set of sailboat sails out of sonic fabric has been my mission for several years. the piece that's currently on view at the san diego museum of contemporary art is my first effort...sails as the ultimate form of prayer flag.

there's a lovely little article at sailmagazine.com about it.

now i'd like to do a set for a real sailboat...maybe an old lightning, J24, or 12-meter?
