Brian James Griffith
A musician and visual artist living in Los Angeles. His work blends analog with digital; subtle movements with bold features; and virtual with physical reality.
Musically, Brian creates evolving atmospheres that often explore the sonic capabilities of the bass guitar extending it well beyond the lower register, as an effort towards singularity between the mind and instrument.
His visual art compliments the meditative qualities of his music by creating synthesized video environments and hypnotic animations that encourage mindful investigation.
The spontaneous nature of his process attempts to connect fully to the invisible fabric of reality.

l’éterenèbre
In 2009 I moved to Chicago. Shortly thereafter I met Natalie Chami (TALsounds) and we started to improvise together. One of the ideas we explored is darkness, both in sounds and aesthetics. The name, l’éternèbre, is French for Eternal Darkness created by Man Ray for his 1928 film L'Étoile de mer. The slight absurdity of chosing an esoteric word from an 80 year old art film was not lost on us.
