AFTERBURNER

Berlin based AFTERBURNER is the new collaborative project of vocalist Audrey Chen and electronic artist Doron Sadja. Unique in a crowded field of voice and electronics duos, the pair weaves together Chen’s idiosyncratic vocal growls and chirps with Sadja’s dense synthetic atmospheres and immersive smoke and light show into a singular monolithic landscape. http://afterburnernoise.tumblr.com/video

Berlin-based composer, researcher, and curator working at the intersections of psychoacoustics and expanded listening practices. 

Former artist and curator in Residency at Liebig12, he received his MFA at Mills College (CA), studying composition with Pauline Oliveros, Fred Frith, and Zeena Parkins, and producing/performing with Morton Subotnick.

As a recipient of the 2017 DARE Prize for Radical Interdisciplinarity (University of Leeds/Opera North: Leeds, UK), his current research project concerns affective crossings between humans and environment, ecological soundings, and geophysical/atmospheric infrasonic sound. •• samhertzsound.com •• http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-38962932
