ABOUT

 Wei Yang is a composer/sound artist from China. He works with different mediums, through which he often contemplates the body’s role in sound production, sound in space, and the integration of various data from the performance environment (reverberation, light, etc.). Wei composes both instrumental and electronic music and often incorporates multiple sensors and physical computing to build performative systems that allow dynamic interaction among different actors within the system. His works have been performed internationally at occasions such as BEAST Festival, NUNC!, ICMC, ISAC Sonosfera, Tomeistertagung, ORF Musikprotokoll, San Francisco Tape Music Festival, SEAMUS, Espacious Sonores, Festival Atemporánea, Nucleo Música Nova SiMN, Sound Image Festival, and Ars Electronica. Wei received his Bachelor of Music from Berklee College of Music under the late John Bavicchi, a Master in Music Composition from Tufts University under John McDonalds, and a Doctor of Musical Arts from the University of Washington under the supervision of Joël François-Durand. He is a PhD candidate at the university’s Center for Digital Arts and Experimental Media, working closely with Richard Karpen and Joseph Anderson.
