Black Matters is an investigation in patterns of transformation. I combined the mandala form found in nature and spiritual teachings with synthetic and electronic materials to explore a link between human concepts and machine objects.

Each piece is a construction of one black vinyl, hand sewn quilt stretched over a custom built trapezoid shaped speaker. The speakers are linked through amplifiers to sine wave oscillators and play a composition of binaural tones.Concepts that influenced this piece:

• Binaural beats
• Mandala
• Automotive Upholstery
