Selected Music and Video Projects

I am“Ru”, one half of the Philly-bred, NY-based avant-pop music project Famous Letter Writer. Full of gritty, witty, combustible pop, our debut, W̶A̶R̶H̶O̶L̶A̶, premiered in American Songwriter, where it was dubbed, "from front to back, a success" with singles featured in places like NPR. "Warhol/Warhola," the lead single, premiered in Talkhouse, along with the first of ten short films, a throwback homage to Warhol's DIY, avant-garde aesthetic. Our next project DADAMAMA will be released over 2025.

Burgh (2016)
I made this film with M.I. Devine as part of my Creative Community Fellowship with National Arts Strategies. The film is a cinepoem for a small town modeled after Strand and Sheeler’s Manhatta from 1921.
