(On the Written and Spoken Word)



1. HUSK — an entirely untapped resource of literative anomalies. 2008.  

2. The Confessions of Mr. Sherlock Holmes — a lighter if somewhat irreverent work of deductive fiction. 1997. 

3. Eighty-eight Billion Potatoes Rolling Down the Stairs — a work on audiotape utilizing the Dutch phrase, "achtentachtig aardappelen rollen van de trap" (88 potatoes are rolling downstairs) in an exponentially increasing sequence of overloops. Special thanks to Bear for this one! 1987. 

4. MIRV-Carambole — a rather short, minimalist dance piece inspired by observing high-paid computer programmers playing "Hacky Sac" (or "foot bag") on their lunch breaks in the parking lot. Movements and musical score for slit drum derived from a simple computer program. Costuming includes G.I. issue army boots. As yet unproduced. 1986. 

5. Machine — a tragi-comic stageplay in one act. Presenting a provocative view of human non-relatedness (one of the characters is a video screen) this sentimental work has the length and personality of one coffee percolator brew-cycle. As yet unproduced. 1985.
