About JAMES GOODE
James Goode is a composer, writer, and artist living and working in San Francisco. He has produced electroacoustic works for gallery, museum, and private installations, as well as for dance, live performance, radio, recorded media, and the Internet. His idiosyncratic approaches to the creation and transmogrification of sound have stimulated audiences in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Japan.

He has composed a number of pieces inspired by non-ordinary states of consciousness. Somniloquy, conceived in 2007, is one example. The narrative score for his 1999 ensemble piece Foment in the Brailles of Zoopsia references synesthesia; pareidolia; auditory, gustatory, olfactory, tactile, and visual hallucinations; multiple personality disorder; and other scientific phenomena. Spatio-sensory, an eight-channel sound installation of 2003, assigns a different sensory process to each of four pairs of speakers in the room; in this scenario, the speakers are thought of as sense organs—four eyes, two ears, one nose and one tongue—and movement of sound between them as analogous to specific types of sensory fusion.
