John Aylward is a composer whose works explore the intersections of time, memory, and myth. Raised in the Sonoran Desert, he carries with him a deep appreciation for its intersecting cultures and otherwordly landscapes. His works cross genre and aesthetic, and integrate a love of the history of science, philosophy and contemporary literature, all in the service of illuminating an exploration of the human experience.
“We rarely talk about being immersed in time, or being in the throes of time, being in love with time, saturated with time. We can enjoy the time, but it is usually time spent. Why are we conditioned to think of time as a commodity?”
