Born in 1996 in Erfurt, Germany, my artistic path began with the exploration of my father’s punk tapes and my grandparents’ free-jazz records. In 2010, at the age of fourteen, I got my first turntable and spend most my days at the local record store, discovering DIY culture, organising events, creating eclectic DJ sets and co-publishing music through a collectively run imprint under the name Daizy + Holy.
A few years later and after encountering John Cage’s book “Silence”, my understanding of music shifted toward sound itself. I started to use playback devices to deconstruct and transform fixed sounds on various media to create new music out of it. At Radio Corax — an alternative radio station in Halle (Saale) — I developed a deep interest in radio art and sound within architectures of transmission, performing with feedback processes, while reflecting on microphones and loudspeakers as instruments in their own right.
From 2018 to 2021 I joined the curatorial team of Seanaps Festival and got involved with the NNOI community in Brandenburg. Following my ongoing curiosity with and around sound as a transformative medium, I took courses in electroacoustic composition at the Bauhaus University Weimar and worked with Limpe Fuchs ~ moving my perspective toward the sculptural possibilities of sound and deepening my thinking about listening as an active act, further inspired by writings of Pauline Oliveros and Jean-Luc Nancy.
In 2022 I moved to Berlin and engaged with the city’s vibrant Echtzeitmusik scene, playing in diverse collaborations with fellow artists. Since then my work has led me to perform internationally across independent and institutional contexts, including the C. Rockefeller Center for Contemporary Arts (Dresden), gr’Ambacht (Mechelen), Stadtmuseum (Munich), ZDB (Lisbon), ausland (Berlin), ZiXP Festival (Leipzig), Papiripar Festival (Hamburg), Space21 Festival (Slemani) and Festival Internacional de Libre Expresión (Cuernavaca).
2022 and 2023, I was fortunate to receive two artist stipends from Musikfonds e.V. as part of the Neustart Kultur program. Furthermore, I took part in the Nouveau Grand Tour as a selected artist of Dolomiti Contemporanee in northern Italy and received a working grant from the Goethe-Institut to realise a residency at the Forplay Society in Fort Kochi, India.
