Bio
Alyssa Moxley seeks to access and share the emotional resonances and embedded memories of locations through sound. She transforms field recordings through composition, performance, and shared listening practices. Her works include installations made with physical radio, sound walks, sculptural interventions, multi-channel compositions, improvised solo and collective performances, research in ethnomusicology, and collaborative soundtracks. She co-curated Kinisi Festival bringing together folk and experimental musicians from Greece and the Balkans for site-specific concerts on the island of Santorini, as well as a series of choreographed public musical interventions in the pop-up space “Enoikiazetai 17” in Athens. She has performed at the Big Bang Festival at the Onassis Centre (Greece), CTM/Athens & Epidaurus Festival (Greece), Longeur d’Ondes Festival (France), Encontros da Imagem Festival (Portugal), and Syros International Film Festival (Greece), among other events. Other notable works include a series of interactive sound installations and improvised performances together with the Temps Zero Collective (National Museum of Contemporary Art Bucharest, Noorderlicht Gallery Groningen), compositions for the 4D sound system, recordings released with Nyege Nyege Tapes, MBE Series, and Vertical Music, and projects with the feminist radio art group Shortwave Collective.
