MISSIVES TO THE ETHER: Matt Marble

MISSIVES TO THE ETHER: Matt Marble. (Apr 13, 2025)

Hosted by Cat Tyc.

Interdisciplinary writer/artist Cat Tyc reads tarot for guests on air and plays whatever she wants.

She will be joined by Matt Marble who is an artist, author, audio producer and director of the American Museum of Paramusicology ("brilliant and humbling," The Paris Review). His work creatively and through historical research explores the inspired intersections of art and metaphysics and the intuitive disciplines they mutually employ. Matt is the author of Buddhist Bubblegum: Esotericism in the Creative Process of Arthur Russell ("groundbreaking work," New York Times), and the producer/host of Secret Sound, a podcast exploring the metaphysical biopics of American musicians, and The Hidden Present, an audio interview series exploring intuitive discipline and spiritual imagination. The California Festival, Warp Records, and the Philosophical Research Society have featured additional works. His writing, research, media production, and personal archive constitute the American Museum of Paramusicology (AMP), through which he also publishes the monthly AMP Journal. 

Matt's visual art and music are often rooted in his own dreamwork divination practice--the Astramira or "Wondering Stars." This work has been featured as a solo art exhibition at Greensboro Project Space, as well as through releases of instrumental guitar music and dream songs. His recent album of solo acoustic guitar music, The Living Mirror (2021), was released by UK label The Crystal Cabinet. Matt holds a BA in Speech & Hearing Science from Portland State University, a PhD in music composition from Princeton University, and a black rattlesnake from his dreams.
