I’ve contributed to two benefit compilations that center art as a tool for solidarity and resistance. SOLTURA: A Compilation Raising Funds for F2L Commissary supports the F2L Relief Fund, which provides mutual aid to incarcerated and detained community members. The project weaves together experimental sounds and collective care, amplifying voices committed to abolitionist futures.

Similarly, Pa’l Carajo ICE: Benefit Compilation channels the power of music toward immigrant justice, with proceeds benefiting the Immigrant Defense Project, Detention Watch Network, and United We Dream. The ten-track release merges sound traditions and lived experiences de aquí y de allá, uniting underground artists in defiance of borders and oppression.

Both compilations embody the spirit of my practice — using sound as a vehicle for resistance, healing, and transnational solidarity.

Hardware Hardware Live is a two-hour sonic exploration aired on The Lot Radio, featuring live performances built entirely from self-fabricated electronic instruments. This live set also featured collaborations with my former professors Mason Mann and David Rios, whose mentorship and technical guidance were integral to the development of these instruments, as well as my longtime collaborator Olive Yu, with whom I began this hardware journey with during our master’s program.

Together, we presented a collective performance of DIY, artist-built hardware. A sonic celebration of experimentation, mentorship, and the creative potential of sound technology crafted by hand.
