Eternities is an intuitive collaboration between bass clarinetist Katie Porter and sound artist Bob Bellerue. Their work is inspired by deep presence, resonant feedback, melodic drone, and overtone magic, in the fluid realm between intention and indeterminacy. They use harmonic tones from wind instruments played within feedback systems to create multidimensional spectral drone. For this show, Porter and Bellerue performed live on a 10-channel speaker system, with the diffusion guided by a Supercollider patch.
Following, Bryan Eubanks will present n/24 (2025), two parts of a 24 hour electronic work in progress that will eventually be incorporated as a complete cycle that is time/location locked to the listener’s physical location. Materials come from a wide range of purely electronic sounds generated from modular synthesis, harmonic and inharmonic systems, patch programming, and feedback networks. These first two pieces were presented in a multi-channel format in two separate concerts in NYC 2025, March 2nd at Fridman Gallery and March 16th at NYU.
About the Artists
Katie Porter plays clarinet, bass clarinet, sings, writes songs and curates performances. She exists mainly in the experimental realm, but can sometimes be found elsewhere.

Over the last 30+ years he has been involved in creating and presenting a wide range of sonic activities – experimental music, sound art, noise, junk metal percussion ensembles, soundtracks for dance/ theater/ video/ performance art, and sound / video installations. Bob’s electronic sound work is focused on resonant feedback systems, using amplified instruments, objects, recordings, and spaces, in combination with electronics and software written in the Supercollider audio synthesis programming language.
Bryan Eubanks (b. 1977, US) develops his music through solo work and collaboration. Since 1999 he has participated in many short and long term projects, and regularly presents his work internationally.
