Sculpting Sound: A Systematic Approach to Designing, Building and Composing Using Sound Installations

The proposed research seeks (1) to bridge the gap between these perspectives by articulating a practical and theoretical framework to design, build and compose music using modified instruments; (2) to build upon my past experiences and on existing creative research practices and methods to expand the concept of ‘impossible objects’ by transitioning towards a sculptural approach to music composition, where these objects are recontextualized as sound sculptures within a complex structure as sound installations; and (3) the composition of new chamber works for the JACK Quartet and Vertixe Sonora.
