Artist Bio

Emerging from Omaha’s noise scene, experimental act Cast Off Form blends organic and electronic elements including electroacoustic improvisation, field recordings, and off-label uses of (non)instruments.

The resulting sounds can be both abrasive and ethereal. Known for thematic releases with densely layered textures, Cast Off Form invites listeners to a place deep within themselves. It is a one-of-a-kind experience.

Strings is an upcoming release on Eh?. The work is an exclamation point on the acoustics series, an 18-month adventure exploring the possibilities of an acoustic guitar.

I continue to uncover fresh surprises. On Strings, the guitar opens as a percussion instrument before making a return to its earlier form as a feedback generator.

In this release, I also incorporated no-input mixing and modular synthesis, creating rich and dynamic soundscapes. Check out Strings soon on Eh?.

While working on the Acoustics series, I began another project with the working title Without Form.

Inspired by creation stories, I started making densely layered sonic walls that imagined what it sounded like before the beginning.

Without Form has also been an opportunity to practice painting. Primarily using different variations of black paint, I’ve been exploring what “formless and void” might have looked like.

Join me at Studio 62 at 8 p.m. on February 7th to experience the sights and sounds of Without Form.
