Active in the fields of contemporary music, théâtre musical,
performance and installation art, her current work focuses primarily
on electro-acoustic music and mixed media projects for the stage or
in installations.
Besides her numerous collaborations with composers and
institutions (Experimental Studio, SWR, Freiburg i.Br.; ICST, Zürich;
IRCAM, Paris; Swiss Institute of Technology, Lausanne), she has
produced multimedia performances and interdisciplinary projects
involving interaction design and new media (FABRICA ,Music
Depart., Research and Communication Center, Italy) as well as
concert-installations (The Banff Centre, Canada) and
choreographic-composition pieces (Schweizerische Ballet
Berufsschule; dance company TanzFabrik Berlin).
Aiming at establishing new opportunities for perception, her siteresponsive and reactive sound environments suggest a flexible and
modulable relationship to space, which becomes an arena of
continuous sensorial exchange and a plural, performative context.
