TanukiSpiderCat
An improvisational blend of electric cello, modular synth, and samples. By dissecting sound into pieces and manipulating these fragments in real-time, the artist sculpts an ever-evolving and fluid soundscape. Looping, layered, and staggering ever forwards. It’s a fragmented, unlikely and chimerical animal hailing from San Francisco. Colleen T. Kelly - electric cello, modular synth, and samples
