Startalk is a generative sound broadcast informed by the geographic locations of black independent radio stations in America throughout history and their respective frequencies. This work (or patch) will output an improvised set of communications between archived broadcast program snippets, tones, and field recordings from each station's relative location. Startalk will be a continuation of a series of constellation pieces, integrating networks of black autonomous spaces into the process of composing music and long-form sound works.

Corey De’Juan Sherrard Jr engineers a developing system for composing songs and generating objects that respond to the deficit of black post-capitalist propaganda within a world culture.

Sherrard has exhibited at Sanman Studios, Sabine Street Studios, Cleve Carney Museum of Art, Basket Books and Art, and the George Washington Carver Museum and Cultural Center.
