GLEN NELSON A.K.A. DIGSY
From brushstroke to beat
The palette of orange and yellow suggests warmth, resilience, and release. At the center, a surreal figure lifts its hands like a parasol, filtering chaos into light. Digsy’s composition echoes this arc, translating visual rhythm into layered melody and texture.
What results is not simply an accompaniment, but rather a parallel form—equally distinct—offering another way to experience the same unfolding. This collaboration extends an invitation—not just to look or listen, but to feel the space between.
Glen Nelson (a.k.a. Digsy) is an award-winning DJ, producer, and visual artist based in Vancouver, WA. He and Korber have worked together for years, creating performances in which painting and music evolve simultaneously. From South Beach to New York City, their shared language becomes a live exchange between rhythm, color, and form. Their ongoing work includes a multi-phase project inspired by Dante’s Divine Comedy, exploring its layered terrain through sound and image.
