Since 2001 his work has focused on the global transformation of culture and music's relationship with other media, such as architecture, video and dance. He studied painting, music and film making at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where his principle teachers included experimental film artists Stan Brakhage and Ernie Gehr, composer Robert Snyder and painter Barbara Rossi. His recent works include “In the Midst of Things” -- a collaboration with the artists Allora & Calzadilla for the 2015 Venice Biennale. In 2016 he became Director of the American Composers Forum in Philadelphia.
