soniferous spaces
soniferous spaces is a long-term online project dedicated to the imagination and celebration of materials as sound sources. using found objects or natural materials, porter develops short compositions that are part meditation, part celebration of and for everyday items and sound. these are archived on instagram, recently evolving into live interactive performance pieces.
