String Theory

2015 to present

Shortly after reforming Leap of Faith in January 2015, I decided that I wanted to expand the core group to be an improvising orchestra for some occasions. String Theory was formed later in the year to be the string section of the orchestra, but also to stand alone as a strings ensemble with the added woodwinds of PEK.

On Leap of Faith: "Alien yet familiar, bizarre yet completely fascinating. Expanding, contracting, erupting, settling down, always as one force..." - Bruce Lee Gallanter, DMG

On Metal Chaos Ensemble: "... using unique strategies to yield densely active and eerily surreal music, an incredible excursion through experimental improvisation." - Squidco website staff
