Employing an array of analog and digital synthesizers, samplers, guitar and vocals, his music blends elements of minimalism, experimental pop, kosmische, ambient and experimental jazz. His performances range from structured compositions to free-flowing improvisations. He has performed at venues/events around Los Angeles such as Zebulon, 2220 Arts + Archives, Gold Diggers, Permanent Records, Living Earth, Healing Force Records and more, joining bills with musicians such as Dustin Wong, Nicole McCabe, Walt McClements, Julius Smack, Gregory Uhlmann, MA Tiesenga, and more.
Isaac’s filmmaking work is informed by direct engagement with the medium; dissecting frames, manipulating and obscuring the lens/camera, rephotographing, and hand-processing. He focuses largely on his immediate surroundings, preferring subjects and topics that feel inherently close. His work has screened at festivals including the Ann Arbor Film Festival, Prismatic Ground (NYC), Light Field (San Francisco), Engauge Film Festival (Seattle), Chicago Underground Film Festival, Crossroads (SF), Milwaukee Underground Film Festival and internationally, including festivals in Spain, Germany, Argentina, Iceland, Taiwan and Colombia.
