Ambient Artifact is a soundscape project that records directly to tape, using the tape as a painter might use different media for textural and color saturation possibilities. On January 11th, 2021, I was asked to do a video and audio recording for a class on virtual presentations for CalArts by John Baffa. The session is a look at my process for the Ambient Artifact series, of course without the benefit of tape saturation. John’s playing with the color saturation helps get the feel of tape even if the capture is digital.
