His work synthesizes the craft of Western art music and the energetic DIY spirit of underground punk/metal traditions through the integration of improvisation, performance space, and environment as aspects of the composition. As a composer, Steve works with many mediums including solo instrumental, mixed chamber groups, large ensembles, digital and mixed media, and film and theater. Steven has held residencies at the Millay Colony, the Virginia Center for Creative Arts, and Wildacres Artist Retreat.
