<small>'''Short Bio'''

''Lesley Flanigan'' is an artist, vocalist, and performer based in New York
City. Much of her work deals with the physicality of sound by using
amplification as a source of sound itself and by focusing on the
relationships between noise, speakers, and voice.

In her current work, Flanigan builds her own speaker electronics and
instruments. Her performances with these instruments reveal a sculptural
process of creating music, as she shapes the varying tones and rhythms of
speaker feedback, and blends these sounds with the tones and rhythms of her
own singing voice. The result is beautifully rich and physical music built
entirely of feedback and voice. Her album and performance of "Amplifications"
(2009) toured nationally across the United States along with 1-bit
electronic musician/composer Tristan Perich, and was presented at the Sonar
Festival 2010 in Barcelona.  Flanigan also performs as part of *
Bioluminescence*, a collaboration with R. Luke DuBois that explores the
modality and materiality of human voice. In this performance, the sound of
her voice is remapped, rearranged and rebuilt in real time to shape an
immersive environment of video and sound.

Her work has been presented in numerous venues, festivals, and art spaces
internationally including at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (New York),
Issue Project Room (Brooklyn), Sonar ('10 Barcelona), Transitio_MX (‘09,
Mexico City), NIME (‘08 Genoa; ‘09 Pittsburgh), ICMC (‘07, Copenhagen), and
Bent (‘08 Los Angeles; ‘09 New York). Her art has been exhibited at the ISEA
conference in Singapore, Busan International Design Festival in South Korea,
Ringling College’s Selby Gallery and MCLA’s Gallery 51. She has spoken about
her work and given workshops at universities and art foundations including
Harvestworks, Dorkbot NYC, Art Institute of Chicago, Wellesley College, and
the Copenhagen School of Architecture.</small>
