Zachary James Watkins solo
I am an improvising musician investigating resonance. I utilize feedback systems and negotiate the fragile relationships inherent in them. My improvisations are a real time exercise in tuning by ear and being attentive to subtle energies. My approach to sound is ultimately interested in creating engaging and complex engaging acoustic experiences.
