Recently I have been in the studio with Michael Atherton, recording a new CD of material for Ancient Acoustic Instruments and Live Electronics Kyma, Capybara system . We have been exploring the richness of the acoustic instruments and their symbolic meaning, and the fluidity and ability to expand the sonic landscape so characteristic of the electronic domain.

Hope you enjoy them. CD should be launched by the end of the year.
