Composer: Ben Carey.
Ben Carey is a Sydney-based saxophonist, composer and technologist. His practice is profoundly informed and extended by technology, through the creation of audio-visual works, the development of his interactive performance software: _derivations and more recently, his fixation on modular synthesis.
Ben’s work is driven by a fascination with the symbiotic relationships that develop between human and machine in composition and performance. His work has been performed and exhibited at numerous national and international festivals including the Huddersfield Festival of Contemporary Music (UK), the dBâle electronic music festival (Switzerland), the New York City Electronic Music Festival (USA), IRCAM Live @ La Gaité Lyrique (France), the Festival de Mùsica Electroacùstica (Chile), the International Computer Music Conference (Australia) and the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression (USA, UK and Australia).
He is also a serial collaborator, working regularly with artists/ensembles such as Zubin Kanga, Joshua Hyde, Ollie Bown (Tangents), Sonya Holowell, Kusum Normoyle, Alon Ilsar, Sydney Chamber Opera and others. Ben completed a PhD in interactive musical composition in 2016 and currently teaches and researches in the department of Composition and Music Technology at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, University of Sydney.
