subjacent queue (2009), for solo digital media, is about musical roots. Whether from a 15th-Century armed man or the contrabass of Charles Mingus, foundations are essential. The electroacoustic “urlinie” of subjacent queue is based in the composer's descent into his own concatenated musical and personal underpinnings.
