Bio

Kristina Warren is a versatile and imaginative sound artist, composer, and performer based on Narragansett land, also known as Providence, Rhode Island [US]. Warren’s performances range from synth voyages and digital soundscapes to concertina meditations and beyond; Warren also presents installations, workshops, lectures, and more. All this work aims in various ways to highlight the ebbs and flows of individual and collective listening attention. Praised as "beautifully organic" (Peter Bruyn, Haarlems Dagblad) and having "a finesse of timbral traces" (Frédéric Cardin, PanM360), work by Warren has been presented internationally at venues including TIK [DE], WORM [NL], The Bluecoat [UK], Infuse [FR], Espacios Sonoros [AR], IOIC [CH], Experimental Sound Studio (Chicago, US), Rhizome (DC, US), and the MIT Spatial Sound Lab (Cambridge, US).
