IpSwitch explores issues of communication and distance experienced while working as a telemarketer in 2014. Through musical “conversations” the piece takes abstracted sounds from a marketing “pitch” and gives them meaning through musical discourse. By fragmenting and rearranging the words of the pitch with new, artistic logic, the piece seeks to reclaim words and phrases instrumentalized towards corporate profit. 

Premiered by: Toy Piano Composers Ensemble
