Biography
Emmanuel Madan is a musician, composer and sound artist. He studied
piano and clarinet for 15 years before adopting the electronic sound studio
as instruments for performance. In 1998, Madan co-founds [The User], a collaboration
with architect Thomas McIntosh which produces two major projects: Symphony for
Dot Matrix Printers and Silophone (SAT Residencies). Emmanuel Madan is a also
a member of Plumbing for beginners whose recent work, Ondulation, is a synaesthetic
composition for water, sound and light. Madan’s solo works include Final
Vinyl, a performance for turntables and live signal processing. Madan’s
involvement as an activist in the area of refugee rights strongly informs his
work on the FREEDOM HIGHWAY project.
