Weaving an intricate web of biomorphic tones, modular synthesist Lee Evans constructs the transportative Aphasic Forest. Improvisational and winding generative structures slowly expand to encompass the chattering of virtual insects and synthesized bird calls in a hypnotic habitat of chance.

Biomimicry is a central theme in Evans’ work from sound design to auto-compositional process and arrangement. Evans sets the parameters for sounds to exist and carry out a life of their own. It’s hard to decipher what is planned in the natural unfurling of the ecosystem, but a sense of lightness in the interplay of every tone and texture suggests the happiest of accidents.
