For your conference, summit, annual, or retreat

Gary speaks, and something in the room changes register - not by pitch, by presence.

Ways to work the room

Keynote opening

The opening that doubles as the pre-sense of the whole event (see the video) - a keynote that sets the register before the first session.

Compose / Compose Live ritual

A piece written and performed for your occasion, live - music and word that open the room on purpose, not as a garnish.

Soundscape workshop

A hands-on session in which the room listens itself together - the members, the thinking, and the feel of the room, in sound.

The Whole Method

A longer arc across a day or retreat - openings, intervals, and returns, composed as one piece around your intention.

Signature topics

What Gary brings

Rows of listeners in a darkened hall, lit only by the light they are facing.

The Resonance Advantage

Why the emotional register of a room decides what the room is capable of - and how to set it deliberately instead of hoping for it. Built for leadership audiences.

What we owe each other at the end

Three decades of work at bedsides, told plainly. For healthcare systems, hospice organisations, and anyone whose people carry other people's grief.

Staying human around the machines

Not a talk about what AI can do. A talk about what being around it costs us, and what an organisation should decide to protect before it has to.

A transformance

Less a talk than a piece of work performed with the room in it - live music, spoken word, and a hall of people who arrive as an audience and leave as something else.

For organisers

A grand piano lit on a darkened concert stage.

Start a conversation, not an RFP.

Tell us about your gathering - the vision you hold for your audience.
