Chance Dibben is a writer, photographer, and music-maker living in Lawrence, KS. He’s drawn to interference, moments when light, language, or signal distorts and the world becomes newly legible. Influenced by psychogeography and shifting landscapes, he treats images and words as forms of translation: weather through a sensor, a city through a body, memory through a sentence. His practice moves between city texture, land and sky, absurd moments, and live rooms, returning again to distortion as both atmosphere and evidence.

His poems, shorts, and photos have appeared in Split Lip, Reality Beach, Horsethief, Yes Poetry, Atlas and Alice, matchbook, Bennington Review, The New Territory, among others. With Melissa Fite Johnson, he co-presented the reading and open mic series VOLTA. His ambient/noise/drone project, SELVEDGE, has been featured in Bandcamp’s monthly Best Experimental and Best Ambient Music columns.
