Corey De’Juan Sherrard Jr (born 1996, Houston, TX) engineers a developing system for composing songs and generating objects that respond to the deficit of black radical propaganda within a world culture. He began producing music in 2013 and, through undergrad, explored different mediums/materials for design and artmaking. He graduated from the University of Houston with a BS in Digital Media and currently consults at the High School for Performing and Visual Arts in Downtown Houston. Sherrard showed his solo exhibition Songbook for Black Constellations at Sanman Studios in 2023. He spins jazz at KTRU-LP 96.1 FM and occasionally produces design work for Los Angeles-based jazz label Minaret Records.
