Welcome to my world of music, research, and artistic exploration. Here, music is not just an art form but a profound journey of self-discovery and transformation.
I’ve always been a musician. The sound led me, protected me, taught me, and showed me the path. Trust, admiration, respect, and humility towards music have shaped me over time. It deleted old, and is constantly creating new records in my DNA.
Music is the manifestation of the Supreme. The vibration of sound leads me through the visible and invisible. It creates and deletes illusion, expands space and time, and shows me through the darkness. Each tone that has been played is my prayer and thanksgiving to Music. Merging with sound and the transformation of consciousness through sound frequency brings me closer to Self. Music is a tool, path, and destination.
I am a musician, composer, artistic researcher, and research associate. I play saxophone, bass clarinet, flute, and spacedrum, and my compositions reflect my profound connection with sound as a transformative force. Scientific and artistic research comes from my urge to articulate the abstraction of music as phenomenon.
In research, my focus is on the phenomenology of music and arts, with perspectives of gender, race, community, and well-being and yoga, through artistic research, social studies, cultural anthropology, and transdisciplinary studies.
In addition to my performance and scientific career, I am a dedicated educator with extensive experience in pedagogy at the university level and in non-formal education. I combine my musical expertise with knowledge from yoga, nature, psychology, and ecology to encourage creativity and personal experience in music and art.
