Sullivan Ripley

I write and record music, take photographs, and build the occasional thing that didn't exist yet. None of it was assigned. That's rather the point.

Photographs

Things I stopped for

Personal work. Mixed ratios on purpose — nothing here is cropped to fit a grid.

All photographs 197

Personal work, not for sale. Commissions and client sessions are booked through Orange Tie Studios.

Projects

Made because it should exist

Apps, samples, artwork. Some have somewhere to go, some are just a note.

App

Elihu

A daily Bible reading app that turns a 365-day plan into small, rewarding steps. “Stop and consider.”

App

Daily Catch

A morning planner for iPhone and iPad that puts calendar, reminders, pinned email, headlines and notes in one place.

App

Crate

An ad-free iOS music player for the audio files already in your Dropbox.

App

Jump Bag

An everyday toolkit for EMTs: field timers, a narrative composer, reassessment reminders and a shelf of official protocols.

Log

Short notes, dated

Not articles. A paragraph when there's a paragraph's worth to say.

The photographs are galleries now: ten of them, one page each, from the southwest in 2022 to Rome and Ischia last week. Italy has a map. The rest run day by day, or as one set.

Spent the afternoon re-recording a vocal take I'd already decided was fine. It was not fine. The version that's up now is the fourth one.

Got the Diving Bell masters back. Louder than I expected and better for it.
