Transcendent Waves
How Listening Shapes Our Creative Lives Debut Book Published by Anthology Editions Order Here Gogoratu/To Remember New Digital Album, originally commissioned by Send+Receive Fest Transient Seclusion Recording on Longform Editions Myth of Equilibrium on Editions Mego Named one of Bandcamp's Best Experimental Albums of 2020 Order Here Current Harvestworks Artist-in-Residence Offering sound healing treatments online Recent Press "This three-dimensional approach to sound is what gravitated me to Lavender’s work. It embraces the nature of the physical world and arguably creates a more intense narrative experience for listeners." - Transom "Where Can Sound Take Us? Innovators in Electronic Music" feature in Henry Ford Museum Magazine (pgs 54-57) “A thoughtful, playful, and gently instructive book ("Transcendent Waves"), it offers suggestions that nudge the reader toward a wider context for the sound in our lives." - Aquarium Drunkard "When I think about the concepts of sonic agency and building worlds through sound, C. Lavender is one of the first artists that come to mind. Her work is a conduit that takes listeners into new, uncharted zones." - Foxy Digitalis (for "Transient Seclusion") "...an album that sounds like nothing I’ve ever heard. Myth of Equilibrium transcends simple ideas of noise or new age, creating a form of “healing music” that feels more honest and invigorating on every level." - Bandcamp "The record ("Myth of Equilibrium") skillfully avoids potential new age cliches and manages to act as an invitation to engage with it deeply, no matter one’s spiritual ethos. The lesson is a useful one and it can’t be repeated enough: shut up, slow down and listen. " - Wire Magazine |
