Suspension Blues (2020) is a collaborative audio-visual work conceived as an immersive, droning strobosphere. It is a model for an activated environment with an amalgam of pulsating light and color, high-frequency drones, and shimmering glissandi.

The aural and visual elements function in direct and intentional relation with one another and by the selfsame perceptual mechanism. A total sensory field saturation instigates retinal and cochlear hyperactivation; long durational attendance is rewarded by trance-induction into deeper folds of space-time. Harmonic drones are utilized as sonic activators and guide the ears in an act of "deep listening" (albeit an act more shock-awakening than meditational), whilst the psychotropic strobing color fields are employed as the nearest optical equivalent to the drone. The two in tandem establish a deeply immersive union.

We share a formulated aesthetic sensibility that prioritizes the potential of experiential sense-perception over topical or ornamental formalism. We are committed to the sensuous experience of the sublime and to psych-altering, and want to make use of a system of values that exalts the pluralistic present-now. SB asks for participation in a ritual dance of the psychosomatic, inviting participants to tune into a charged space of affirmation and the ever-infinite.
