NEW: Forest Listening Rooms Video - Perry State Forest

This month: a new short film for Forest Listening Rooms, documenting a listening session in the Perry State Forest; my presentation from this summer's Creative Capital retreat at Bard College; and finally, a lovely review of Many Hands from Benzine Magazine in France. As always, thank you for your interest in this work! My best, Brian

FOREST LISTENING ROOMS: PERRY STATE FOREST

Part of an ongoing Socially Engaged Art project, this video features a one-on-one forest listening session with Joelene Dixon, a Perry County, Ohio resident concerned about new coal strip-mining proposals in the Perry State Forest. Here, she takes Harnetty to listen to and discuss different sites of recovery slated to be mined once again, as well as poorly recovered sites that show the limitations of previous mining company mitigation efforts. This video was shot in April, 2019, in the Perry State Forest. This project was made possible by the A Blade of Grass Fellowship for Socially Engaged Art. 

CREATIVE CAPITAL RETREAT PRESENTATION

This past June, I participated in the Creative Capital Retreat at Bard College - watch here for my presentation on Shawnee, Ohio. It was such an honor to be among so many inspiring artists!

MANY HANDS REVIEW: BENZINE MAGAZINE

Benzine Magazine in France wrote a very nice review of Many Hands, giving the album 4/5 stars and describing it as "a collection of pianistic and minimal miniatures, delicate and fragile as a faint memory.”

You can read the full review (in English) here. And, you can listen to and purchase the album on Bandcamp here.
