Past collaborative works include orchestral arrangements for the bands Lower Dens and Wye Oak (band) and electronic artists Oneohtrix Point Never and Son Lux. A further recent project includes Si Otsedoha (We're Still Here), a collaboration with the Easter Band of the Cherokee Indian and the North Carolina Symphony which serves as platform for a severely marginalized community to re-contextualize its suffering as strength, to connect with its oppressor in a proud and public way from a position of power. The work, commissioned by the Eastern Band in effort to create new art featuring the Cherokee language, premiered in October 2018 with a multi-date tour of North Carolina.
