Gabby Wen is an artist who mainly works with sound in the form of improvisation and composition, focusing on the immediate corporal response to each sonic event, intentional or accidental, audible or inaudible, of its evolving/decaying physical existence and manifestation in time during playing. Born in Toisan, raised in Shenzhen, and living in Oakland, their works draw influences from early synthesizer music, Japanoise, folk music and rituals of various traditions, and naturally occurring or industrially induced polyrhythms. Gabby continues to develop a body of work combining synthesis, field recording, and guqin playing.
