A performance by 2026-27 Graduate Fellow Evie Hidysmith showcasing her current work building textile synthesizers. Electronic experimental music is often defined by its use of technological equipment. The presence of visible digital tools places the sounds within the technological realm, often in contradiction with the feeling of the sounds themselves. As a weaver, the simplicity of the wooden loom is integral to the feeling of the fabric it creates.
