Exhibition Columbus 2025 : Architecture Biennial


Music / Sound / Mix

An architecture biennial in Columbus, Indiana commissioned thirteen architects to create site-responsive installations celebrating the city's modern architecture legacy through free public exhibitions. As musician, composer and sound designer, I created thirteen 60-second original scores for animated short films produced with Sing-Sing Studios that documented each installation's creative process, translating architectural ideas into sound.

Slack : Huddles [Audio Brand: Music and Sound Effects]


Music / Sound / Mix

I collaborated closely with Slack to develop a comprehensive audio ecosystem for Huddles, their video call and co-working platform. The collection includes ambient music and UI sound effects that align with Slack's brand while establishing a distinctive sonic character.

Users can choose from carefully curated soundscapes: lo-fi house beats for focused work, field recordings from the Northern California coastline for calm, and bossa nova-inspired compositions that bring energy without overwhelming. Each sound guides users naturally through their workflow, enhancing productivity and presence while offering something for every work style and mood.
