Waves In Glass
I wrote the music for this video by Erik and Martin Demaine, for their project Waves In Glass, which combines mathematics, paper folding, and blind-folded glassblowing.

When writing this music, I tried to capture the repetitive rotational feel in the process of both glassblowing and this particular instance of paper folding, as well as sneaking in elements of symmetry and mathematics. I see this video as a collaboration and communication between art, glass, music, math, paper, and people.
