Hybridity, class, race, code-switching, and the choreographies created or imposed by these make up his primary research interests. Much of his practice lies in searching out and harmonizing resonances between differences through public interventions involving sound and music.

Sully’s musicological interests include ballads, spirituals and other roots Americana as well as FM synthesis, gamelan and site specific sound composition. His has taught and produced music and sound for a variety of situations and contexts including, community documentaries, independent films, media centers, festivals and interactive dance performances in Australia, Canada, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Mexico, and the Netherlands. His most recently collaborated with Rabih Beaini and Soydivision for a musical staging of »KIAMAT,« inspired by Senyawa’s Alkisah, which they also co-released with over 40 other record labels.

Sully also performs as Memeshift, coaxing danceable musical forms from common grooveboxes, old laptops, drum machines, Ableton Live, and off-the-shelf synthesizers. His other projects include .obat. which emits resonant drones for attentive listening, and messyfingers which complexifies and performs site-specific electroacoustic music inspired by gamelan percussions.

Currently, Sully manages daily label operations for L-KW and most recently formed Alkisah Trio to channel darker and heavier grooves for adventurous ears while developing musical theater works with performing art collective, Soydivision.
