004 Collager: Matt Norton

…Finding the space in between your thoughts. And…I think music does that for me. It’s an escape where I kind of lose my concept of what room I’m in, or what day of the week it is or, all of the kind of subtle things that keep you in reality, and let some of my other senses start to take over.

That’s Matt.  Also known as Berm and Swale.  Landscape designer, synthesizer fanatic, and creator of many a transcendent meal, this week he stepped out of the kitchen and joined us to chat about his architectural appetites, sobriety, and his personal antidote to creative stagnation.

You can find @bermandswale on SoundcloudFacebook, Instagram, and Twitter (although the latter currently doesn’t see much activity).  You can also check out Open Envelope Studio‘s landscape design/build portfolio on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

We heard Is There Hope and Thankful People in this episode.  He also compiled this video of collaged vintage snippets to go with his song, I Forgot Her.

Do you like to play electronic music?  What’s your favorite program for sound design?  Tell us below or on Twitter and Instagram via the hashtag #chattycrafties
