Manolo Müller
BiographyManolo Müller is a composer, sound artist and electroacoustic researcher from Zürich, Switzerland. He studied Sound Arts at the Hochschule der Künste Bern and Electroacoustic Composition at the Zürcher Hochschule der Künste and is currently researching new methods of spatial composition at the Institute for Computer Music and Sound Technology in Zürich. Müller’s interests include the composition of artificial landscapes, musical and acoustic spaces, as well as a fascination for acoustic phenomena, such as overtone structures, interference patterns and the control of feedback. After exploring these topics in the context of acousmatic music for some years, he now returns to live performance to further investigate the possibilities of interaction and control of spatial sound. For his live performances, Müller creates hybrid instruments which are specific to each piece. These instruments not only serve as an interaction surface, but can also be considered themselves a form of composition, a map of possible musical structures waiting to be navigated by the player.
In addition, he develops software for artistic and collaborative projects and has been working as an interpreter of experimental electronic and contemporary classical music for some years, often serving as technical director. Recently, he has helped in the construction of an publicly open studio for electronic music at the Rote Fabrik, Zürich, the CB Lab, where he is serving on the board of directors of the association. His work has been presented at international festivals, including ZKM next_generation 8.0 and 9.0 in Karlsruhe, CIME 2022 in Krakow, Concorso Internazionale di Composizione Città di Udine 2023 and Weimarer Frühjahrstage 2023.
