Marcin Pietruszewski
(born in 1984, Poland) is a composer and researcher. He is engaged in sound synthesis and composition with computers, exploring specific formal developments in the tradition of electroacoustic music and contemporary sound art. He works across composition, pluriphonic installation, and radio productions. Recurring interests of his practice include synthetic sound, algorithmic systems, and the integration of scientific formalisms as compositional materials. Works exhibited at West Court Gallery (Edinburgh, 2019), Remote Viewing (Philadelphia, 2019), and Institute of Contemporary Arts (London, 2017). Commissions by CTM Festival (2021), ZKM Karlsruhe (2018) and Deutschlandradio Kultur (2016). Collaborations include: a sound installation 'Auditory Scene Resynthesis as Cochlear Wavepackets' (HKW, Berlin, 2021) with Jan St. Werner (Mouse on Mars); NORMIFICATION (Presto!? Records, 2022) with Florian Hecker.

Marcin has experience as an educator, designing and delivering courses focused on digital instrument design, digital signal processing, sound theory, and practice. He has taught at The Reid School of Music (Edinburgh College of Art, UK) and Design Informatics (The University of Edinburgh, UK). He also writes on issues related to computer music histories, aesthetics, and technology. His texts have been published by Hatje Cantz and ZKM among others. Currently, Marcin holds a position of the Leverhulme Research Fellow in Data Perceptualization and Aesthetics at the Department of Computer and Information Sciences of Northumbria University, Newcastle, UK. Marcin lives and works in Berlin.

 

Douglas McCausland is a composer / performer who is fascinated with new aesthetic and technological domains, and whose chaotic and dense works explore the extremes of sound and the digital medium. Through his work, he investigates the various intersections of real-time electronic music performance with handmade interfaces / instruments, spatial audio, dynamic / interactive systems, the musical applications of machine-learning, experimental sound design, and DIY electronics / hardware-hacking.

His works have been performed internationally at numerous festivals and symposiums including: Sonorities, SEAMUS, the San Francisco Tape Music Festival, MISE-EN Music Festival, Klingt Gut!, NYCEMF, and many more. Recent honors include winning the 1st-Prize for the 2021 ASCAP/SEAMUS commission competition, the gold-prize for contemporary computer music in the Verband Deutscher Tonmeister Student 3D Audio Production Competition, and an award of distinction in the 2021 Prix Ars Electronica.

Douglas is currently a DMA candidate at Stanford University, working towards his doctorate in Composition while studying with Chris Chafe, Patricia Alessandrini, Jaroslaw Kapuscinski, Fernando Lopez-Lezcano, and Mark Applebaum.
