t l k is the artist moniker of vocalist and producer T L Klein. They centre the voice-as-instrument, in live and recorded contexts, with sound palettes formed from vocal layers, found rhythms, analogue synthesis and organic instrumentation. Fluid in genre and form, their works evolve from memory, dialogue, dreams and ongoing explorations into grief, selfhood, human behaviour and its coalescence and tensions with the non-human. t l k draws from far-reaching philosophical fabrics, including Taoism, minimalism, chaos theory, Deep Listening and the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model of psychotherapy. The core of t l k's artistic practice is rooted in 'The (act of) Noticing’, which forms the basis of their upcoming debut album.
