since i recently officially migrated an old account i suppose that this is an #introduction - #introductions post. here, you can call me spit. my pronouns are she/her. if you know me from elsewhere, you can call me as you know me from there. i'm not new to fedi but i decided to create a new account from scratch because something something the arc of reinvention. i am a composer, intermedia artist, poet, leatherdyke archivist based in the northwestern united states. my works focus on ritual, perception, memory and memorialization, immaterial labor, and the body. i perform/improvise mostly as a knob-twiddler and percussionist. i read a lot - mostly articles and poetry - and like to share what i'm thinking about in the process. i like to share works in progress in general, but i'm trying to get over shyness about it. i am not a technology partisan. i do my best to be polite. i like the taste of spit and brass and cowhide in my mouth, but also bolivian coffee and freshly baked bread. i have a thing for all things purple, because my mythos runs deep. i have decided twice now that i was no longer going to be afraid of death and i think the second time around it is going to stick. anyway, my latest works are about how we tell-retell stories to ourselves from our own perspective, how there's just one timeline, and how we deal with uncertainty. that's enough for now
