Maryanne Amacher

Creating lush sound from her multimedia installations since the '70s, American artist Amacher's music is an exploration in shifts in electronic sound production. Her music is often site-specific and reactive to unique architectural acoustics. As one moves through her installations, one discovers constantly changing resonances and frequencies as the sound reacts to the architecture and the ear. Her recordings, are therefore documents of auricular events and site-specific phenomena. Nonetheless, they are mesmerizing. High-tension, synthetic drones play with, melt into, and separate from one another, transforming any physical or mental space.
