Ames Sedivy @ames-af.bsky.social · 18/12/2025It took months of fussing (and procrastinating) but I finished a new full size Slippery Geometry piece. The work is going through a major evolution and finding how it works in a new paradigm is proving to be hard scrabble. I finally found a sort of rhythm. I began to think of it as a graphic score. 020

Ames Sedivy @ames-af.bsky.social · 17/06/2025If I’d’ve seen the brochure for the Kenjiro Okazaki exhibit, I might have said ‘meh, I’ll pass’ and I would’ve been an idiot. It was fucking inspiring. #museumofcontemporaryart #tokyo 010

Ames Sedivy @ames-af.bsky.social · 05/06/2025What draws you into music? For most people, I think the answer is melody. While I still love me a good tune-noise kids still like ABBA-I've found the most captivating qualities for me are texture and tension. I tend to seek music that is rich in sonic detail and not resolved. 000
Ames Sedivy @ames-af.bsky.social · 02/06/2025Mabe Fratti in Seattle last night exceeded my (high) expectations 100
Ames Sedivy @ames-af.bsky.social · 22/05/2025Intended as an unorthodox soundtrack to NYC. Repetition to echo the relentless grid. Polyrhythms / tuned percussion for the jostling bodies. A reverent elegiac tone for the soaring architecture. (Plus a little grime for the inevitable ugliness you encounter) open.spotify.com/playlist/6gm... 110

Ames Sedivy @ames-af.bsky.social · 28/04/2025I’ve only really begun learning guitar, but 34 years ago this same gang of nerds used to make a racket in their garage (I tried to play bass back then). I will say, playing with somebody did my skills some good 000
