WE CAUSE SCENES premiering at SXSW this weekend.

I wrote several cues in this feature documentary about Improv Everywhere, an experimental theater group based in NYC. Fellow Tuftonian Matt Oestreicher led a team of composers also featuring Eliot Krimsky. If you’re in Austin, hope you can see it.

An experiemental sci/fi horror film I scored is debuting at 7pm tonight at Film Society Lincoln Center tonight. It’s called “The Lost Children” and is an “immersive theater/film experience” about aliens, cults, and disappearances. Definitely not for the faint of heart. There is a second screening on Monday 1/28 at 7pm.

A set of videos I scored about IBM's advancements in artificial intelligence, hence world domination.

This was kind of neat, it was picked up by Engadget, Slate, and the LA Times. But I am happiest about Engadget.
