composer | conductor | sound designer | engineer


As a composer who is extensively engaged in the aesthetics of dramatic art forms, ranging from theatre and opera to experimental and performative practices, I aim to create multi-layered compositions that brings acoustic and electronic media to evoke ritualistic performance environments, while exploring the mechanization of human experience, the historical and perceptual crossfade between humanity and technology, and the sonic potential of glitch, industrial noise, and spatialized psychoacoustics through both human and posthuman lenses, often in close collaboration with artists from other disciplines.
