Moi! I'm a Finnish-Australian creative audio maker who uses the transformative power of acts of listening and radio making to foster care for the environment.
I presented the ABC Radio National documentary program, Earshot and have produced many radio and podcast works for RN, the BBC, the European Broadcasting Union, and US National Public Radio shows Radiolab, Radio Rookies and Radio Diaries.
I have appeared alongside species such as kangaroo grass, wild relatives of rice, the short-finned eel, and a selection of indoor plants.
Through my work I hope to encourage the observation and remediation of the awesome physical environment around us. I believe, as anthropologist Georgina Born writes, that 'sound [...] is always experienced from particular subjective and embodied, physical and social locations,' such that any sonic experience is only partially mine to direct and is always transforming through the act of listening.
While curating and presenting Soundproof, an RN program that was dedicated to an experimental and expansive approach to works for radio, I developed a love for the textures of transmission: pink noise, bit-crushed voices and the sounds of no-input mixing. I have created audio artworks for MONA FOMA, Radio Revolten, The Unconformity and BLEED festivals. And occasionally tinker building crystal radio sets and AM receivers.
I live and work in Helsinki, Finland and on unceded Wurundjeri country in Naarm, Melbourne.
If you'd like to know more about what I do or would like to work together, please get in touch. On socials, you'll find me on Bluesky and learning to draw plants.
